The sport has a way of turning your world upside down. Practices at least three times a week. Games every weekend. (Five-year-olds need the intensity.) And poor communication to boot. Today we were halfway to the game that was 25 miles away when we got a call that it was canceled due to the rain. Are we playing tomorrow? Nobody knows yet. “Check your email later tonight.” So, all plans for tomorrow have to be put on hold until futher notice. Hopefully we actually get that notice.
