RNP: Random Netball Post

11:56:00 pm

I gotta say my love for Netball is off the scale sometimes. It's "sometimes" because I'd play it today and then miss playing it that night. 2 hours is not enough and even if I do play up to 3 hours I'd still be playing the next day if there is any. Alhamdulillah I have a team I play with and we get invited alot; for instance we're even invited to 3 venues tomorrow by 3 different teams. I love it! Hehe..
I've played netball since I was..9 I think? An original who's afraid of a netball ball got smacked on the face with it by my teacher during netball club. Funny thing was I didn't even sign up for it and turns out my friend was the one who did. So since then I've love netball. Played during my primary years to my secondary and up until now.
 I've played all the positions of course except for the shooting. Originally I was a WA then a C. Then now I'm at the defense part (GD, GK & WD) and despite my height (short I mean :P) my team accepts it so I'm quite happy with it.
Personally I think I still need alot to improve especially on my speed and agility. I haven't have the chance or the knowledge to improve it yet since I just found out about it though. It wasn't that much of a problem before but I guess I just got older? Lol. Maybe. But I gotta say, most of the time when I go up to my opponent; they'd sigh seeing me approaching them. That's always a good feeling. Hehe.
As for injuries; Alhamdulillah and Nauzubillah the most painful one to date would just be spraining my back. The pain radiated from there to my whole body to the point that everything I do hurts and yes, even lying down. My ankles, my fingers and my palm; fuhh. But it's alright, I still play the game.
I've grown so much since that day when I got smacked with the ball. From someone who can't even catch a ball and always in a team that loses tournaments; who's just so glad even if we scored just 1, I've come so far to be able to put fear on my opponent's face and being able to hold my head up high for having a team with the highest goal scores in a tournament. I've really come so far. But despite that feeling; I still feel there's a long way to go. I still need to improve myself and I always need to be careful.

Cheers,
Wai
