On Monday, we had our second soccer game of the season. There were many improvements from our first game! I now knew where I was on the field and what that meant my role was (at least in the context of my team). I strongly to prefer being the right winger.

Unsuprisingly to those that know me, my favourite part of playing soccer has been hanging out with my friends, and trash talking the other team, in a respectful friendly way ;). One time in ringette, I convinced my team to cheer for the other team, like the video below, and it is now a goal of mine to convince my soccer team to also do it!

Now the update you’ve been waiting for: no, we did not win our soccer game. We were winning for awhile, and it made my heart sing to see fragile egos shatter of the field. Sadly, they pulled ahead of us and we lost 5-3. But an almost win, that wasn’t in the double digits, is a win!

I did worry less about my knee, I made at least a half decent pass, and I may not understand all positions, but I knew mine meant I ran up the right side of the field!

Next time, I hope to spend more time on the field, and enjoy the vibes of my friends. Making another good pass would be good!
