Soccer History

Today was history. My school OrmPS played in a soccer (or football) tournament with multiple other schools. We had two teams, one was a year five group and the other was the year six team (which I'm in). The learning coaches that were supporting us was Mr. McNeil and Mr. Dyer. Our first game was unlucky but it's not bad because it was our first game. I started as sub and I was feeling normal as usual but once It's my turn to go on the field I got shot with nervousness because I didn't know what to do as a defender. But eventually I got the hang of it. Time for the last match. I was now confident since I knew what to do for defender so I didn't panic. But it turns out that I'm not defender. When I got called onto the field I was striker and once I heard that I tried to stay calm. I was in luck because even If I failed we could still win because if they score, we would still have one more point than the other team and also we have a good player(or friend) that was mid-field which is basically like a striker and he could score some goals. We managed to win which was a great achievement for OrmPS. We had a mini celebration at the end. My next step would be to get better at every position at soccer.

  1. Hi Justin,
    Woohoo! The first ever soccer tournament that OrmPS competes in- and you were there. Way to go. It is normal to feel nervous, especially when you don't know what to expect. You took a risk and persevered when you had to be a defender. What did you do for your mini celebration? Congrats by the way.

  2. Hi Justin,
    Congralulation on coming 2nd place on your soccer mission
    1 thing I want you to work on is how you felt when you were playing soccer against other teams and also what you accomplished on your soccer matches.
