Freshmen's game ~winter stage~

Our freshmen had game. In freshmen's game, second grade players have to coach them. Our team had 3 second grade players and 16 freshmen. So, we had to coach many freshmen. At first, I was panic! I'm senior, so I have to be their model. But I don't have self-confidence. I don't know what should I coah them. Anyway, we just gave it a try. Their growth is the finest of joy for us. We made mascot with all night for our fresmen, and presented before the game. They were very glad. We were happy. They lost game, but they did their best. They were cool! So, we had good experiences.

Retirement Ceremony

In November 24, the closing ceremony of league games and retirement ceremony were held. The champion of girls lacrosse in Kansai of this year was Osaka Kokusai University. They are very good team. After watch the game, we had retirement ceremony for our seniors. We all write messages on cards for one by one and made mug illustrated with photographs of us. We sang a song for them and gave them these presents. I was sad that we can't practice together any more. But from now, we will practice more harder as a sinior for our juniors.

Last game

In October, I had game. It was our last game of this year and this team members. Parents, friends, studying abroad students... many people came to cheer for us. It was important game for us to be promote. But our team had a dissappointing loss, by one run. We were really bitterly disappointed when we heard the end-of-game whistle blew. Everyone cried. But I thought everyone did their best. Our league games of this year were end but it were good games.

After the practice

After the practice, I went to have lunch with my team mates. We ate a lot and felt stuffed. After that, we went to drive to Satsukiyama. We saw night view. It was very beautiful. On our way to top of the mountain, we saw deer. We were surprised. We talked a lot. I had very good time.

Freshmen's Game 2

The end of the August, Freshmen of our team had Freshmen's games. It were held at Maishima for 2 days. Before the game, we gave them letter and good-luck ribbon worn around the wrist for each person. The T-shirt of this picture was made by our seniors. They wrote, "wakaiyaro?! tairyokuarukarahashirinasai!!", in English, "You are young! run hard because you have stamina!!" They cheered with wearing the T-shirt. It was very funny surprise! The result of the games, they won all games! We had very good time!

Freshmen's Game 1

After the practice in summer, the member of second grade students of my team made good-luck ribbon worn around the wrist for freshmen of our team because they have freshmen's game soon. They practice hard, so we really hope them to win the games. We were bitten by mosquitoes and with scratching itchy spots, we made with the greatest care.

training camp

In summer vacation, I went to Hachikita highland of Hyogo for training camp of club. We stayed there for four days and three nights. We practiced whole days. When it was rain, we went to gymnasium and did muscle building. The ground was in the mountain. The temperature was a little cool. We went to the ground by bus from the inn which we stayed every time. The man of the inn picked up and dropped off us. At the inn, there was a hot spring bath set in the open. The view from the bath was very good. Every night, we had meetings. It started at 9 o'clock and finished at about 12 o'clock. It was very hard schedules everyday. I was very sleepy. I was very tired but we had good time.
