Today, my soccer team did something I never thought they could do before. We actually beat the Gold team, who we named "The Giants," because they were HUGE. Before, we were kind of scared, because, you see, we had only won one game... against the Green team. So we were kind of the easiest people to play against. So people kind of enjoyed winning against us.
The rumor was that the Gold team was sixth and seventh graders, and that they were very, very good. Either way, we beat them fair and square. We had fun doing it.
In the last quarter, I was goalie, and I hate being goalie in the last quarter. That's because if we're very close to making a goal, I can't help make the goal, I can only stop goals. Once, I had the ball in my hand, and someone from the Gold team (she was very big) kicked it right out of my hands, into the goal. The referee said it didn't count, because she not only kicked the ball out of my hands, she also kicked my fingers.
Then, the next time, the ref let the game go on too long, and they scored, but that didn't count either, because the game was officially over.
So I just want to say thanks to my team, for not giving up. We won a good game, fair and square, one to nothing. And well... I just want to say... thanks.
Leah!!!!! some of the stuff on here is really old!
