"Experience" vs. Youth

At lunch, some of us IB students were selected to play against the teachers and I was the only one in my year so that is something to be proud of. We beat them with a score I can't remember because I stopped counting after a while and I was able to score one goal. I think I should have been more offensive since most of the time I was back in defence which I think was a waste since I could have been very useful up-front since I do have a lot of skill on the ball and my finishing is good. If we have another match like that I will try to be more of an attacking player rather than always staying in defence. I think that sometimes I should have looked for a pass on the floor since I tried to lob it several times and most of those times we lost possession even though some of those long passes were very successful.

As for after school, needless to say the ones that play at lunch were exhausted which is probably why this week wasn't as intense and our team didn't do as well; we were all tired. I think that I should have been more energetic since sometimes my game was sloppy and I wasn't very concentrated so next time such a thing happens I think I should remain focused no matter what the consequences. I didn't score as much as I usually do but I got a lot of assists since instead of mostly going for a shot, I decided to pass to a player in a better position than me. The week after the holidays, I will try to get my striking boots back on and put my game face on, so to say. I hope to be more energetic since I will try to go swimming during most of the holidays.
