Blog Term1 Day21

Today we had our 2nd field hockey game of the season. It took place in Livingstone like last time, and we played the same school. And I am really happy to say we won the game. I really don't want to be a sore winner, but just for your information, we won 4-0. It was a really good game and our opposing team has really really great defence. I think our team is very well-rounded, but we have especially good forwards, so our defence get bored quite often. Trust me, I've been there. I'm usually not defence, but during practice, when we do a scrimmage and I'm defence, there isn't much to do. This game, I was forward for the first half and mid-fielder for the 2nd half. I'm almost always a forward. Although I originally wanted to be a mid-fielder when I first joined the school team in grade 8, I was put into forward. I'm not saying I don't like being a forward because I love being a forward, but I just find mid-field to be even better. In a game, when you are a forward, you always have to be on top of your game and very alert. Mid-fielder is the same, but you aren't really expected to score, so it's often not as intense. When you are a mid-fielder, you do a lot of running because if defence needs your help, you have to run there but if the ball is in the forwards possession, you have to be the back-up clan.

Now if you were to ask me which position I would like to play, I would say both. They each have their own special thrill to them. Last year, I played forward the whole season, so I guess I just want to play a different position to see which one I am better at. Anyways, I love both positions because they are just really awesome!

My random thought/statement of the day: J'adore jouer au hockey de terrain.
