This morning gave the first chance for a real sleep in since we arrived in this time zone. Team Passion played the early afternoon game on the NSC main arena and won: 3-1 against a local team, Blaine Bobcats.
Captain Agnes had a go ahead from the doctor and was back as keeper. The game was exciting and the team played well before an audience of some hundreds. Team Passion was cheered by a loudly supportive Norwegian team and a bunch of American parents. The short and fast grass added to Team Passions succesful forward attacks.
This game was recorded and is archived at the NTV website, click here. It costs a few dollars.
All afternoon games were delayed due to thunder and lightning over the fields. Team Joy, who played the late afternoon game, took shelter from the heat in the most cooling environment possible, at the Schwans Super icerink.
The schedule was tightened up with shorter breaks between games. Earlier than we were first told we were called to appear at our field. Stress made adrenaline flow and might have added to the energy. The girls made excellent individual performances and won this game too, 3-0 against another Minnesota team, Blaine Wildcats. So far not a loss!
