First game of the season

It was the 10th of October, the day we knew it would come, a fresh new team with a young spirit, but with quite some experience, and some new blood. We started the day with the game in mind. We were excited for our first game, even though we didn't had our team shirts yet, we had the same goal: WIN. After a nice dinner and watching some games to get in to the game and discuss our tactics. Next we could warm up and the first set could start. Tom had won the rock paper scissors (always rock, right?) And I remember how I needed to start surving, my first time ever for an official game, but it worked! The ball came over the nett and the start of the first set was a fact. It went very well, we kept the spirit and energy high! It was very tight but we won!!! The energy was even higher and we were even more excited for the next set! But unfortunately, team 5 was also very good and won the next set. With all our feet on the ground again we started the third game, also this game went well, because of the good level of our opponents also our game stepped up, but they won again. We arrived at the last set, a bit nervous but still with energy to win, it was tight, we had nice balls, good surfs, attacks and sets, but the opponents had even better attacks and they won. Maybe a bit disappointed but not sad all, because we all new, that this was our first game of the season and the level that we played but moreover the spirit that was shown was very  promising for the next season. We were all excited for the new season full of nice games
