Sunday 10th June
This weekend marked the culmination of the little league softball and T-ball. Both girls have thoroughly enjoyed themselves and, with approaching 50 sessions of practice and / or matches in 10 short weeks, have had even more sport than Mr Riley could have rustled up. I am torn between joy at recovering our time to spend as we please and a sense of loss since we will no longer be chatting to the parents, coaches and children that we have got to know so well. For G the season ended with an all grade match with the national anthem (we still need to learn the words!) and with tannoyed announcements of each player as they stepped up to the plate (personal season statistics aside). Both were very pleased with their end of season trophies. We have no idea how either the Gators or the Marlins faired at the end of play but we know for sure that if it was judged by third innings performance alone then the Gators would be in with a fighting chance - why could they only ever get 5 runs and 3 outs in that single innings? The spirit of the whole league is captured really well in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MDYvzfwst0I.
We look forward to returning next season and roll on the field hockey in the autumn.
