On Tuesday October 27, 2009 I had my first basketball game. It was at
home, in Onekama we were versing Bear Lake. I am number 3 in basketball.
I was very nervous. My coaches are Mrs. Bromley and Mrs. Bennett. When
we got there we stretched, McKayla H., Kassie, and I led the stretches
because we are the captons. After that we did some lay ups. Then some
free throws, I almost made them all but they bounced out. When the game
started I was not in the 1st quarter. We were tied 2 to 2. Then I went
in on the 2nd quarter, I am a point guard. After I played it was 4 to 8
we were losing. I don't think we scored anything in the 3rd quarter.
On the 4th quarter I played again, in the quarter I scored 6 points. We
won the game 20 to 8. We were so happy. I forgot to say that one girl on
the other team scored a basket for us, it was funny. Then we left. I
love to play basket ball. ~Lauryn |

Our first
basket ball game was great. It was the first time I've ever really been
a part of a team. It was a lot of fun and I had a blast. I'm sure none
of us can wait till Thursday for our next game against Bear lake again.
Man do I love being on the court, I love the feel of adrenaline. My
coaches are the best. My team is great too! Everyone on my team is a
great ball player. I really liked my first game too, at first I was
scared but then the fear burned off. The only things I'm not good at is
defence and rebounds. But I shouldn't complain I could be worse. And the
feeling I got when we won the first game was unexplainable!! Now I'm not
so afraid for my next game. Like I said I said I can't wait for my next
game.
