I mentioned in my introduction that my club and I did well today in La Liga Provincial against Marbella but it was a mixed day for me personally. The pistes were crowded so I didn't have time to practice prior and as a new player (1.5yrs) I know that is very important to calm my nerves and get in a rhythm. First match was very rough and somewhat embarrassing but my team pulled me through, second one I played very well and we shut them out, third I played more or less like the beginner I am but again we came through with the win. I think as a new player it's very difficult to just come in cold full of confidence, I must dial things in with some practice prior to match time otherwise inconsistentancy reigns supreme. Also my lack of decent Spanish or French is a real handicap in team communication.
