Indoor Soccer Season

This year, for the first time, I'm playing indoor soccer. I'm on the same team as a few of the girls on my regular soccer team. It's really fun.

When I showed up for my first game, I was very confused. When I pictured indoor soccer, I imagined it'd be a regular field, but inside one of the bubble thingies... It wasn't. The field we play on is probably the size of the field the 2nd graders I ref play on. The field itself is also surrounded by a wall  of plastic boards. I run into that wall a lot. Also, when we make substitutions, there's no whistle to stop the game, you just run on and off whenever it's convenient. Unless the ball goes over, and therefore outside, the plastic walls, there is no out of bounds. You can literally kick the ball against the wall to get around someone..... That's weird.

So, when I first started playing, I wasn't very good. But, I've been getting a lot better... My coach even said so! :) It probably didn't help that my first time playing indoor soccer was also during my first game. Technically, I'm only a sub. As in, if they know they're going to be missing players, I go so that they don't have to forfeit or so they can still have subs.

I think we have about a month of the season left and I'm really glad that I decided to play this year. Hopefully, if I have the chance, I'll play again next year too.

Thanks for reading!
