14 Players, Full games back on!
Let us play this Saturday, 7pm at the rink!
Here are a few words about the last game.
It was great to be at the rink last Saturday! Pleasant temperature, and amazing showing with 14 people! This gave two premieres for the year: first full court game, and first game with a goalie.
Eric indeed dressed as a goalie and in the first period he defended the white cage. The dark team had to defend a small rectangle on the fence. The first period ended 1:0 (I think), with great saves from Eric who was only beaten at the very beginning. In the second period the teams switched sides, so the white team could also shoot on a goalie… I think it was about 4:3 for the white team at the end of the period.
Stephanie started as the goalie in the third period. We could actually have had a normal game with a goalie and 5 field players for each side, but we did not have a second net. Stephanie played well, that was a good test. Eric stepped back after a while, and continued playing extremely well until it was 8:8. The dark team was very mobile, Jeff in particular was always dangerous, and the white defense a bit wanting. The goalie made great saves and kept the game even for a while. In the last five minutes the dark team scored 4 times, easily, it was time to stop. Final score was 12:8 for the dark.
Special mention to Hinako. No one remembers whether she scored, but she did bring beers for everybody!
Next Saturday may be again a great night! Eric will be in the nets again, and Stephanie may also play.
