Been awhile since I played Netball- my all time favourite ball game. Recently got into it again, thanks to my boyfriend cum Netball coach cum Netball umpire. Yea you might wonder if I got it wrong- is he my boyfriend or galfriend?? He is 100% testosterone-charged, I assure you! How did a guy like my boyfriend get into the Holy Netball Trinity (Player, Coach and Umpire) you ask? Well, that's another long story.....to be continued in another entry!
Back to me for now! Yes, I am finally back into the game. Feels great. Nothing can compare to the adrenalin rush I get from throwing good passes and making fake moves that leaves the defender wishing she had eyes behind her too! And, I simply love the "swooshing" sounds when I take long shots in the goal circle.
Happy as I may be, but I yearn for more than just recreational games every Thursday. My boyfriend has asked me to go for his club training in Tampines. CLUB Training?! The people there run faster than me, jump higher than me, throw better than me. In short, THEY are much better players. Much as I would like to "succumb" to my bf's persuasion that I could also train with THEM, I simply dread the idea of playing under such stressful situations where everyone else seems to be two notches above me!
Already I could feel the stress of playing alongside my bf on Thursdays. The speed he requires of me, the mental alertness, the strength and agility I should possess to keep up with his game...the list goes on. Phew!
Guess what I can do now is to brush up my skills on Thursdays...until I feel the time is right for me to join THEM.
