In the past couple of months, I have started to play field hockey again. Through the connection of good old Facebook I reconnected with a friend of mine from high school who I used to play against (Brewster vs. Lakeland), I played with her in the off season and proceeded to play against in college. On the off season we played a lot together, in Futures, Empire States and other Indoor tournaments our coaches asked us to play in.
So a couple of weeks ago she contacted me asking if I was interested in playing in the spring league and to be honest, I have been really getting an itch to start playing again. After college I was pretty burnt out. I played all year round since I was in 8th grade so it was time for a break after college. Being that I graduated 5 years ago (holy crap) I was really starting to want to play again, never thought that day would come.

In the past couple of weeks I have fallen in love with it all over again, I really have a great time playing, it feels good to be out there on a team and getting a good work out. I'm not one who loves the gym and I have always loved team sports so this is a great way to get some of my exercise in.
Besides that I am truly happy to be playing again, as cheesy as that may sound.
