After almost a year of playing this new sport, tomorrow's the start of my first, and only, National Inter-School sports championship season. I always wished it was for football, but I guess hockey is almost as good a sport to compete for. And I would never have imagined to play the position I do, goalkeeper. So yeah, this is going to be a good experience for me. I hope.
I do not feel the pressure yet. In fact, I've been feeling fine the past few days. And I know, like academic exams, the pressure will all rush at once to me at the start of the match or when I'm padding up.
I do hope we get off to a good start in our tough, extra-team group. We really need to do so. And it won't be easy. There are no easy games. Every game will be like a cup final to us. I'm sure.
I hope I can play well. This is my only word of advice...
you can either
make a mistake, or
make the difference and
make history.
Bye!
