Valor Girls Soccer

I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of watching athletes give it their all. Sitting on the sidelines, I have such incredible opportunities to get close to these players in the midst of the game. They’re heaving, legs aching from all the running. And to think that they have the endurance and strength to keep going for another 30 minutes is amazing. Even though it’s been years since my last lacrosse game, I vividly remember what it feels like to be gasping for breath, turf in your cleats, legs shaking. I can’t even imagine running that much today. Your girl would be fighting for her life.

One of the things I love about soccer (and hockey, for that matter), is how exciting goalscoring can be. Goals can sometimes come few and far between so whenever a team scores, it’s such an adrenaline rush. It’s easy to get swept up in the thrill of it all. And every now and then, you have a game where there are so many goals it’s mind-blowing! This was one of them. The Valor Girls Soccer team crushed the competition in a 3-1 victory.
