Winning Streak

Parklands Under Six Blacks won again this weekend. A closely fought 9-8. It was a really fast moving game. Ben and I hadn't been for several weeks and I was amazed at the progress that the players had all made! They are starting to pass more effectively, sidestep and plan their routes! Joe was a star once more and scored another 3 tries! He launches himself when he tackles and was yet again the muddiest child on the pitch - gotta love it!
The team probably top their league now so everyone is rightly proud. It is very funny watching the adult supporters on the sidelines! Lots of stress!! Especially when the game is as tightly fought as it was this week. Not that the Dads are at all competitive - but they was some subtle fist punching when the final whistle blew!
Joe is attending a birthday party over the road at the moment and Ben is tucking into a sandwich. It is all very peaceful and lovely! Matt is still out after a night at Chris Ralph's. Probably nursing a hangover!

  1. I don't remember anyhting subtle about mine, or any of the other dads, air punching. It was a tense game and we were bloody proud dads!
