Experience of a Lifetime

 

 

On December 17, 2008 I had an experience of a lifetime!  I was picked to be a flag and a ball girl for the Women’sUSA vs. China game at Ford Field, in Detroit.  I arrived at Ford Field and joined my Coach Miriam and my teammates Malina & Margaret.  We entered Ford Field and went into the locker room.  Then we went on the field and practiced holding the flags for the national anthem.  

After practicing, we were ready for the game.  The American anthem was played and it was great to see all the women soccer players!   I also got to hear the way the Chinese say their anthem.  The game was about to start, we got soccer balls and ran to our places and the game started!   I was behind the China goal; I think I had the best seat because I could see all the shots the USA team had on the China team.   A couple of times the ball came over the wall and I had to throw the China goalie a new ball.  That was awesome; I felt like I was part of the game!

During the game I notice that when you get older there are a lot more penalty kicks because they get super aggressive.  The USA team has very awesome skills and it was great to watch how they pass the ball to each other.  I also got to see the goal that Heather O’Reilly made.  She is #9 which was awesome because I am #9!  I really like Kristine Lilly, Kate Markgraf and Lindsay Tarpley!   As I watched the game, it was an incredible feeling to look up and see all the people in the stands.  I felt special. 

Even though I didn’t get autographs, I will have the memories with me forever and maybe one day I’ll be the one giving autographs.   A girl can dream!

I would like to thank Nike, US Soccer and Vardar East for this great experience!
