We summer pool competition, cyah ketch a break, is licks 3 meets straight now..our kids winning, lilman been doing fly & back, angel, breast & free, so they don't have to clash, no problems, Mzting been doing a decent 2nd in free & fly, no best times by anybody, but where we losing it is in 8u & 12 u...looks like we might be going down to B group next year...lilman not digging that at all, no matter how ah say is no big deal..is like he trying to work out a math problem how he could make the lil ones faster..
Angel join Mzting at track training and that going good, but he football team, get 7 -1 last game, main Goalie gone away for vacation, so Doh he played hard, and probably had his best game as the stopper, he couldn't stop the rain, from that town., plus the 4-1 last week, everybody getting good lessons in humility.
Plus the coach for the provincial games team, tell him he not fast enuff to do the events he actually qualify for - it's 16 & u he has to race, an he's 14, so he putting him in off events like 200 fly - NB. This going to be he club coach next year..so the boy getting grouchy & don't want to train, rather go he Bronze cross lessons...eh heh, Mammy say "Not ah shite ah dat, if yuh Doh go d swim practice, no football tournament this weekend"
3 pointer dey for mammy, yes
This evening the regional team have a BBQ after the swim practice with the coach, so he might get an opportunity to convince the coach to let him do the sprints, ah tell him go for it...I know if the coach let him do it, he will probably do some wicked times, he have a lot of pride that one...
Mzting get her report card and found out she passed everything, one of the major issues she was stressed with the swimming intensity etc..very relieved now..
Yup, humility lessons this summer, no matter how good yuh feel yuh is, there is always someone/someteam/ some issue that could make things difficult..such is life, not always smooth sailing, and easy times....I just does just try to let them know, is not about win or loose doh?.is about how yuh deal with the rough patches
