The bravery . . .
The heart . . .
It take all those to do what I am about to do . . .
Not sure If I will actually finish this post or not, but here goes.
Several evenings ago was the first practice of our homeschool co-op volleyball team. Last year, on my old blog, I talked about our church volleyball team - well, this is different. The co-op team is putting us through serious training. Two full hours of practice - - awesome.
I've been practicing a lot of volleyball in the past, so I had some advantage, I guess (and disadvantages of a lot of things too . . .) but I've basically been re-learning most of my skills, because we're starting with the basics. One of the big things we were learning today was spiking - or rather, the initial steps up to the spike. As some of you probably know, I'm really short. And that clicks me. Because I can't even touch the roof . . . D: I'm hoping, with jumping exercise , I might be able to.
Woo . . .
Isn't that exciting . . .
There's about fifteen players, including two coaches.
But this is already getting boring . . . I better stop now.
Thanks for reading,

*grin* Venturing into non-writing, hmm? Brave stuff! Hehe. I've never been good at volleyball, but I haven't had much training, either. The ball tends to hurt my hands. But I wish you luck with your new team!
ReplyDeleteYeah, scary whole world I missed in my writing ventures . . .
DeleteYeah, the volleyball usually does hurt. It also depends on how you hit it, though. The forearms, not below. Still hurts though.
Thanks! :)
That's cool! I've honestly never played volley ball (which is a little bit odd, since I live on the coast...or, well, about an hour away from it).
ReplyDeleteBest of luck! And have fun with it. :D
Ah, nothing to be ashamed of! ;) Volleyball is indeed an obscure sport.
DeleteThanks! I will. :D
Yeah. Obscure doesn't mean it isn't fun though, eh? :D
DeleteAye! :) It's very fun. Second practice is today. I'm pumped.
