Soccer is one of the sports that I played the most throughout my childhood. @flowerbaby played some too when she was a very young girl, but it had been a long time for both of us. We went to a local soccer field and played around spur of the moment today.
I had some soccer cleats already. We went to Goodwill to pick up a pair of shoes for @flowerbaby to play in, it was there that we found a great pair of Asics for just $5!
I already had my Messi soccer ball and jersey, but we did have to purchase a pump to get the ball to a proper level of inflation for play. After that we were all set to hit the pitch. We got lucky and a spot on the field opened up as soon as we got out of the car. This meant that we had a goal all to ourselves.
Neither one of us had a problem with controlling the ball, I guess we both are naturals even though we hadn鈥檛 played in ages. I love blasting the ball as hard as I can and @flowerbaby was more than happy to let me go run after the ball whenever it went to far 馃槀.
I鈥檓 glad we got to get out and revisit one of my favorite past times. Soccer is a great way to burn some energy and stay in shape. I don鈥檛 think I would spend the time playing on a team in my adult life, but it鈥檚 good to know that I can still get to it if the skill is ever needed.
