Flexing my bragging rights here and not because I honestly had anything to do with the awesomeness that went down but because I'm super proud of them.
9 out of the 26 female rugby players that were chose to be on the national team are my teammates.
That's 9 Lady Mavericks chosen to be on the Lady Volcanoes team, the national team!!!
My #quadgoals friend got picked and it was first time for her to be on the national team so I'm so happy for her, so proud of her. I know she trains like a beast. She's one of the hardest training athletes I know actually so I know she was totally deserving of a spot.
I texted her personally to congratulate her and she made mention of hopes of me being on the team. Apparently I'd have to be in the Philippines for 3 years to be considered. I, on the other hand though, don't consider myself nearly up to par or close there to it in comparrision to the mad skill my fellow teammates and those on the national team sport. I'm flattered my friend thinks I could make it though; I appreciate the support.
Today the Lady Mavericks played a team from India and won. They've been at a pretty rough and tough rugby camp this past week and so I know the game came after a lot of hard training and sweating it out on the field. They have another game this Saturday.
I'd wish them luck but they don't need luck; they've got skill.
