Yesterday the 3rd's had their first match and I'm glad to say that we had a win. This is the team that I have been training with since the beginning of the year. I am a long way from being ready to play but I still had a run in the 9 a side before the match.
My tipping isn't going to well, last week I only picked 4 and I am on my way to do the same this week, so far I have picked 3 of the 5 games that have been played.
So before I headed to training tonight I was laying on the couch thinking, I am tired, I don't want to go, maybe I can just skip this one.
Of coarse I was reminded last night that joining the local football team has it's advantages. I was shopping last night, normally a lone task (unless Gwen comes along) and I bumped into a mate from the team. He asked where I have been and why I wasn't at training on Tuesday (I was in Melbourne) and we had a bit of a chat about the tipping.
You see the good side of this is that I now know a lot more people in the community, the bad side, if I am to lazy to go to training I'll get asked about it next time I go outside.
I headed off to training thinking that it'll be good for me to work off some of those beers from the weekend and you know what. I had a great night, so much energy and after I feel great. I look back onto my first training session with the Red Lions and I can't believe how far I have come.
Thanks guys :-)
