I have to say I think it was an awesome experience. Playing with all these girls has given me so much more confidence and they were all so encouraging and made my first Claws trip a great one. I learnt so much over the weekend from Barb, the team, the other teams and myself.

Everyone played great as a team and by themselves considering there were 4 new players and we all had to get used to each other in a game situation.

In the third quarter of our first game I was nervous but excited and I think both of those came in and I didn’t play at the best that I could have. During and after my first quarter I got great feedback and encouragement from the team, and Barb and I was determined to go out in the next quater with confidence and try my hardest against the team we were playing.

Over the whole weekend I played a lot of strong defenders and it made me realise how hard I really have to work to be in this team and work for the next weekend away.

I hope that the next weekend will be just as great or even better!

GO CLAWS! REOWWW!
