Return to Football

So after many weeks of meetings at the end of Mondays in odd locations, bank holidays, anticipating being off, and actually being off - I managed to play football for the first time since March 5th.

This meant some pleasant changes. For a start, it's now light when we play! Today, in fact, it was rather hot considering the time of day. I was naturally unprepared and didn't have a drink, which is a mistake I regretted.

The game today was also more 'correct' - perhaps in recognition of the heat, we weren't tearing forward and leaving huge gaps behind. People were being more sensible, covering space, defending, and it worked quite well. It was a good game overall.

Hopefully I can play again next week and get back in the swing of things!
