My Future Goal

My future goal when I'm is to play for the Black Sticks and I am already training towards that goal. I am currently in the top team for my age group which is huge for me. My dad has also played hockey for New Zealand so I know what it takes. My family is very supportive which makes me want to take my goals to the next level. We know how much the tournaments can cost and are willing to do what it takes. Being a hockey player isn't a large task so I can still study for university to be a dentist so after my hockey carrier I will still have a steady income. This way if I don't make it as a hockey player I would have a steady income.

Hockey Tournament

Today (2/6/09) My team the Fairfield XI played in four games with results of 0-0 against Mata Mata, 1-0 against Melville, 1-0 against TA, and 3-0 to Tokaroa. In the first game we dominated the first half and second but laking the ability to put the ball in the back of the net. The second match we were strong overall sticking to our positions and managing to sneak in a goal. In the third much of the same winning comfortably by a goal. Then in the final game knowing that we had to win we hit some bad referees counting a goal that came off someones foot. Peachgrove XI won the tournament. Overall we enjoyed ourselves with some nice team work.
