we played really well this game, definitely brought our skills up a notch. but alas, we still lost 0-1. but that was MUCH better than our first game. this might have been because we played on half of the rink instead of the whole thing, but who knows.

tuesday, 1am
our last game for the season! we left christine in goal for the majority of the game so that we could have two boys on offense (four teammates play at a time, two have to be boys, two have to be girls). this was apparently a really fantastic idea, because we won the game 2-1! our first time making any goals, and our first time winning! the only goal we let in occurred toward the end when we put a boy in goal, haha!

at 1:30am, tuesday night, my friends and i had our first broomball game of the season! because it was so late at night, i went to sleep after i watched house and got up around 12:30am to get ready.

our team name is “cool runnings,” and there are four boys and ten girls on the team. none of us have played before, save two of the guys, so we kind of suck. we lost 0-4. hahaha.

but broomball is super fun! for those of you who don’t know what it is, it’s similar to ice hockey, but you wear sneakers instead of skates and you use a different sort of stick and ball. it’s actually not that hard to run on the ice — i didn’t fall once the whole game. haha, but some of my teammates did : P

next game we’re going to work on our strategy, because basically all five of our players on the ice would try to get a goal, leaving no one to defend our side except the goalie, and it’s hard to sprint back to the other side when there’s a break-away. lol.
