We arrived at CANA training today at 9.55am. Angela and Kalinda arrived at the same time as us, and as Angela was travelling behind us she witnessed Ian "dancing" (at least his head was) to Kung Fu Fighting as we made our way to Bayswater Road (how embarassing hehehe).
The girls kicked off the training run with a Team photo - in full uniform - taken by Michael Webb. He's a gem and allowed me to take a team photo on my own camera before he took his snaps. (They're the ones posted on this page!!).
The girls then got into full swing of the training session and after they finished their ball handling drills they took on the U/15 team in a game.
The U/15's were on most occasions very strong and of course much bigger, but overall the U/13's held their own and were able to move the ball around the court and outclassed the older girls a few times and were able to finish off with goals from Lauren and Chelsea playing GA and GS respectively.
Talia playing WD teamed well with Georgia - GD and Kalinda at GK and they were able to minimise the U/15's opportunities to score quickly. They soon realised that the U/13's meant business and they had to make several additional passes around the circle before they could pass into their goalies - WELL DONE DEFENDERS !!!
Rebecca playing WA was able to run her opponent raggered and then re-offer to Ellie playing C who then passed into the goalies. Although the U/15's clearly outscored the U/13's the girls should be proud of their efforts and with a few more weeks training should be able to give the other teams in Townsville a run for their money - WELL DONE GIRLS !!
After training we visited my close friend Tamika and her husband Marcus who are now proud parents a handsome little boy - ETHAN PAUL !!
The cutiest little fella arrived 3 weeks early last Sunday and although his arrival was not without some dramas, he his just a delight to spoil and we certainly gave him plenty of cuddles.
I saw a program on TV this afternoon where Paul Mercurio was in Townsville and we have been able to view a places we'd like to see when we go there in.......27 days (Chels is counting). Especially one place called The Frosty Mango (they make their own Sorbet's and there were plenty of flavours to choose from (Chels and Fuzz can hardly wait)
Ok that's it for now - dont forget to leave a comment !!
