Welcome back! This weekend was pretty relaxing, I had a big volleyball tournament down in Anaheim for my club team. I woke up at 4:45am, and left at 5am, we picked up my friend on my team and headed down. It was about a 2 hour drive, I slept the entire way because it was an extremely early morning for all of us. We got to the sports center at around 7:30am. We were playing first so right when all of our team got there we started warming up and getting ready. We ran a couple laps to get warm, and then just warmed up our arms and peppered with a partner. We then did a couple drills, we served, and did hitting lines. Once we were done, and our opponents were done we started. It was probably around 8am. We were the 3rd seed in our pool and in the silver bracket. We started off by playing the number one seed and usually we have a rough first game because we aren’t always fully warmed up with a ton of energy. Surprisingly, we started off great and we won our first match. We had a ton of energy and were ready for everything. We then had a game off which we ate and relaxed for a bit. It was around 9:30am, and we headed back to the court and we had the ref the next game. We watched our opponents play each other to see what we were up against next. Then around 10-10:30am we warmed up for our second game, against the 4th seed. We started off pretty rough actually and were down by a lot, we were struggling with having a positive mindset and getting back in the game. We took a timeout, talked as a team, and worked things out. The next point we sided out and came back by winning the game. Straight after that game, we played the 2nd seed. They were pretty good, but our team still had a lot of energy from that last win so we crushed them. By then it was around 1pm when we were done, we talked as a team and took a couple pictures together. We went 3-0 and had a great day of wins! See you guys on my next post!
