The ice conditions were great, the competition was fierce. The schedule was intense with two 10-end games each day for 5 days. It was great!
Our team finished 1-8, which was not what we had hoped or expected...but, along with any first time experience, there is always the possibility of unforseen "glitches" in the plan. As far as preparation, training and teamwork. We had to adapt to a few things throughout the week...It was a learning experience.
The venu was a large arena, with officials, camerman, and press. It was fun to be a part of all of the pomp and circumstance of opening ceremonies, wave to fans and sign autographs. The whole week was pretty amazing. I made some new friends and a lot of great memories.
I definitely want to get back to Nationals. I am developing a new plan to train and develop myself as a player so some day I will make it to the top!
There is so much more I could write about the experiences of Nationals...I could recap every game, and all my favorite shots...but I dont' want to bore everyone. Emilia and I still replay some of our favorite moments, and we hope there are many more great moments in our futures!
