So, I didn't get to play in the President's Cup this past month (our team won one match, but lost the next one anyway) and I was a bit disappointed but hey, I'm learning a lot from my Sunday sessions because the guys and the team manager/coach have been helping me/us out when they have time. I don't think I get to complain here! I still have at least one horrible bad habit that I need to break. And it looks like we'll be going to China for a weekend in November to play in a friendly match, and I will be part of the team because my (lack of) grading won't be affected by the match.
Here in HK, players are graded from A to E, and if you win in your group match, you get bumped up a grade. Right now, the team manager/coach wants to "collect" other players without grades and send us out as a team. I hope that he finds enough of us soon so I get to play in competitions!!
Anyway, the weekend in China should be fun as we will take a ferry to the location as a group, and I believe our room and board will be covered by the club that hosts us, and we will be hosted in facilities reserved for foreign guests. Regardless of how things turn out, the experience should be fun, and I'll get to know some of my teammates better.
As of two days ago, I am also now an interim member of the Sports Fellowship Committee at church. They want me on as one of the two leaders, but I am hesitant to commit right now because it could interfere with my baddy sessions. But based on their activities for the next two months, I can help out, so I'd like to see how things go first. Our next two upcoming activities will be biking in Sai Kung, and a night hike to the Peak. My weekends between now and January 2013 are all full!
How did I go from ushering only once a month to serving twice a month in kid's church, co-leading a team of ushers, and possibly leading another committee?? Well, as long as I don't have to co-lead a care group, I'm happy, hah.
