That's me------>
"Woo Hoo! Maddie! Maddie! Maddie!", the crowd chanted. Today, I had a soccer game, as usual. It is Sunday afternoon and my position is defense. Middle defense to be exact.
During last practice, on Thursday, they put me in the net for the first time. I've always kind of wanted to be a goalie but I was scared and I have always loved defense. I really liked being the goalie. It felt so good when everyone said "good job!" to me.
Now, all of a sudden, three nights later, on game day my coach says "hey, do you want to go in net for the second half?" Well, of course I said yes, but then the anxiety started to kick in. But once I got out there, it was totally easy. I only had to make about 3 saves. By the way, our team won 3-0. It was so fun...I plan to be goalie again!
