Play therapy

defeat the Longhorns soccer team. “Those pesky cows always win , they need a defeat.” would say. This year I will hold a tryouts she thought. May’s tryouts were held at the university and her teammates from last year tried out. The first thing was to play a scrimmage game to decide who would be on the team. Lily was a year younger than everybody,Lily had short brown hair and dark blue eyes. Her hands shook as the ball came to her she would need some confidence. The players played the…

also argues that sports show people their limits. I also agree with this, as there is a time in everyone’s life where they think they have the faintest of chances of going pro. Furthermore, every kid has their own version of his Barry story that plays out in one way or another to…

There is a strong belief throughout the locker room that the Huskies are going to come out with a win, but the extra push from Coach Dale might send them into the “big headed” mindset. This is why Dale announces “there's a tradition in tournament play to not talk about the next step until you've climbed the one in front of you.”(1) If one faces the obstacles in front of them before anything else it seems as if they will go a lot further. It becomes very easy for any athlete to think they will…

Standing underneath the Friday night lights is always nerve-wracking, but this time it was even more so than normal. It was the first time I have ever performed on the football field as a majorette; which is a very big accomplishment for me. As the drum major calls the band to attention, I pose and try to calm myself down. When the band starts playing, I start performing, but the thing is that it was nothing like doing during practice. This time I was not even thinking. Every move was strictly…

not good enough to play against an opponent by myself on the court. Which was entirely true, because when I began playing I was not any good whatsoever. I didn’t know anything at all from the rules of tennis, how a game is played out, to how to hold a tennis racquet. I wanted to play a singles position not just 3rd singles I wanted to play…

The Lesson in Quitting For the past 7 years of my life, swimming has played a huge role. Growing up, I had always enjoyed being in the water, and was one of the odd kids that genuinely enjoyed swimming lessons, no bribes required (thinking about it, I wish I had some of those kids in the lessons I teach now). Overtime, it began to feel less like a passion and more like an obligation; something I had committed to that was too late to stop. I was afraid to quit, afraid to disappoint, and trying to…

get my varsity starting spot, put in my time and effort and this happens to me. I couldn’t deal with knowing someone would take my spot and be better than me. I always wanted to be the best, it killed me to see someone else in the game, running the play, scoring baskets, and having it not be me. After the game we all headed into the locker room. While everyone walked ahead in front of me I felt useless. Then Mae the only girl who actually tried to help me walked back with me and put my arm over…

enter into the school team, I decided to organize a soccer team with my classmates. I did planning for three days and gave an inspiring speech before them. Soon, my soccer team was built up with 14 men, and I was elected to be the captain. We began to play soccer from a fundamental perspective, practicing elementary skills every morning and afternoon. When I thought that our team was ready for the real game, I talked the president of soccer club into organizing soccer match on campus.…
