Footy season

By Jeremy Lister

Summer sport has started up again and this year I’m playing rugby league again with the Gremlins but now I’m in the under 11s team.

Most of the same people are playing again this year but there are a few new players on our team.

William is playing in under 8s but he often plays up in under 9s as well.

We normally train on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and our games are on Saturdays.

Normally every second game is an away game in places like Tenterfield, Warwick or sometimes Goondiwindi.

I really like the away games because we get to go for a drive.

Last weekend we had a home game against the Warwick suburbs (Hornets) and it rained during our game.

Everything got muddy and wet but we had a great game and I got to be 5/8.

William played first and I read the paper in the car and then it was my turn.

Mum watched us both play and even though the coach and everyone was yelling Amelia went to sleep in the pram.

She was the only one that stayed dry and warm.
