Hockey

I signed up for hockey tryouts and meets. Though I didn't make the team, I attended several meets to support my friends and improve my skills. I've never played field hockey before, but it sounded like a fun sport to be part of. I hoped to be able to gain some athletic skills as well as become a team-player. I enjoy independent activities and don't do so well in a team environment so playing sports forces me to confront my difficulties and learn from them. This activity taught me that even though I didn't make the team, I still had fun and enjoyed my time supporting my girls hockey team. I'm usually unable to participate in sports because of the commitment involved. My health also limits me, but I hope to be able to participate in more afterschool sports next year.
