Hockey Life
Here's how hockey became my favorite sport:
Four years ago, on my birthday ( October 31st) I went to the Larson Ice rink with some friends.
After a hour of skating I heard My parents talking about me playing hockey, I "thought" that the equipment would slow me down on ice.
Finally, my parents signed me up (Now I'm glad they did!) and I went to practice. Now, at the moment, it was weird with a bunch of strangers around me. The 1, 2,3,4 and 5 practice I fell down and tripped over my skates. But with a little practice at home, I started making friends at the ice rink well, at the same time, becoming a better shooter and skater.
At the end of the season we had a few games against other towns. I don't remember much, but I think we (our team) did okay. Next year, I was a little more happy about going to hockey. This time, I started becoming one of the best players. During the practice time at home and the practice time at Larson I managed to do well in the games.
Now, since of my age, I got moved up a level in hockey. By this time, I was really good at hockey. Drills helped. At the end of the season I was a best player, so I was picked for a team. (A little more information on that "team". Some town's team's best players teamed up with other town's best player to play against other town's team's best players. I was picked, with some other players from Brookings, to team up with Luverne in a tournament.) In that tournament, on our last game, we tied: 3 to3. So we did over time for five minutes. Nobody scored. So in the end, we did a shootout! At the end, it was 5 to 5.... and my turn. Some how, by God's grace, I scored.
And now I'm going to go into another season of hockey. I'm certainly going to enjoy it.
