Last reflection- last game of the season

Posted on

Last game of the season against GIIS full of joy. Joy of winning against . Everyone giving their best to win and make the last game for everyone memorable and exciting as we had grade 12 in the team and it was there last game. Before the game the excitement , nervousness was all going to agresivenes on the field .The most important or the highlight of the game was when we were in talks with the other team to lend our team members. That moment i realised what teamwork actually is. What happened wast that the opposite team had two players less and we needed 11 players in both the team. The refree gave us an option to lend a player to the other team and win the the match or to play without their two player.In both the cases we were going to win but what matterred the discusssion we had. Everyohere with  was like none would play for the other team as everyone had come here after lots of efforts and hard work . It would be unaffair on everyone as we have always played as a team , as one. It was our last match, on our homeground and everyone deserves to be a part of it even if we lose or even if we win. Its all about our team , its about us.I was so blown away . I had never imagined this kind of team spirit .

I think this match was the best team game we have played in our life. A win of 11 goals against the opponents was a true demonstration of our team work determination and willingness to give our best. We put our heart and  soul and applied all the skill we could . The last match was one of the most memorable game I have ever playes in my life. I

First reflection- football

Posted on

Football has been a very important part of my life since childhood. I had been playing football in my previous school for the past six years but last year I had to drop football due to academic stuff. The connection between me and football was completely missing since the last year and a half. After coming year through CAS I had to choose one activity and my very first choice was football. I cannot imagine myself playing any other sports better than football.

Through my tryouts, I realized how out of form I was. I couldn’t run enough with the same speed and energy. I was actually very upset and more than upset disappointed as I was not able to give my best at times. I was trying to give my best but I was not able to. I think I was not able to accept that fact and was giving up a point but at the same point, I knew I wanted to be in the teams and play football. After a week I got into the B team and I am actually very happy about it.

I had been playing football for my school team and representing my school but this time it was a school which I am new too. The feeling is so weird of transforming your identity from being known by other school and know I was going to be identified by another school identity. It is change and shift of identity has always been raising the question.

Football has always been my passion and I will always love playing it be it representing one school or other. All three of them are part of my identity.  I am going to play with new people and it’s going to be a new experience and also a difficult journey as I have always been communicating using Hindi in my previous school but here it’s going to be constant use of English. This is going to help me improve my communication skill. It’s going to be a good, learning, enriching experience.
