Well I registered for field hockey tryouts at the end of this month for a competitive club team. I’m nervous, because even though I’ve played the sport for 20+ years of my life, I haven’t really picked up a stick or played in a real game in about 2 years. And nobody knows who I am here in Vancouver. In my home town, I’ve never had to tryout for a club team before. Competitive/elite teams, yes. But just a club team? Never. So these tryouts will be interesting.
I know I’ll make a team, I just don’t know at which level. I would anticipate that this year will cost me about $300 in team fees and insurance, and maybe another $100-125 for a uniform. Expensive, but obviously worth it to me. Especially because we didn’t renew our ski passes or our climbing gym membership for this year.

Good luck with the tryouts!!
I used to play field hockey in high school- it was fun! Which position do you play?

I used to play midfield, but over the years have turned into a right winger or a high striker (centre forward). What did you play?
I used to play midfield- but I wasn't really any good!! From what I recall, I think I just whacked and ran back and forth across the field! Cool- high striker!! You must be really good. =)

It sounds expensive but how much do people pay in gym fees and they get no where as fit as you would if you played a competative team sport like hockey. I'm Australian, we just call it hockey, there's no ice here so.

Yeah, I just call it hockey too whenever I talk about it with my friends or whoever, but since I live in Canada (where we are obsessed with ice hockey), and for my American friends, I just refer to it as field hockey, so that nobody gets confused.
I am interested in the makeup you got at Target! post pics?
