Hehe..doesn’t sound right does it? Yeah I know, many wacky Americans refer to football as soccer, so in will refer to it as indoor soccer for this news. I was called by a friend late last week about my interest to play goalkeeper in an indoor soccer league. It seems their regular keeper has left the team and they are without.

Driving to work today I was trying to recall the last time I laced up the boots and took my place between the woodwork. Honestly, I cannot remember. I fear it might have been college, while attending BYU sometime in 1990! But my memory might be failing me, it could have been as late as 1999 or 2000. I just don’t remember.

So I have committed to playing out the remainder of the season, encompassing three games. It is a co-ed league with two 23 minute periods and a 3 minute half time. Not really sure what to expect from my performance as I have done nothing but age since I last played. Nonetheless it will be enjoyable (I hope) to get back on the turf and see if I still have some skills remaining.

I already regret waking up the next morning, for fear I will be stiff and sore. Not a good combination.
