Handball was a special sport to me growing up. It helped me build confidence in myself l, make friends and even stay fit. I played for ten years, two nationals, two zonals, three divisonals, five District tournaments and two collegiate level competitions. I was the pivot player and scored many a goal in that position. I remember this one game where we beat a team 17-2. Another where we tied the match because of a last minute hail-mary goal by me, but lost during overtime. My favorite moment was the entire Sadhana College boys team cheering me on as I tried a nine meter shot after years. One of those guys had a crush on me and went on to become a referee; he flirted with me during a match! http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/handball-annasaheb-magar-college-wins-title/363667/ This article is not about a game we won, but it is a sweet reminder of the time. I had the best trips and the most fun while playing on this team. And of course, I made the best friends.
This blog is intended to be a journal to record memorable moments of joy and gratitude. This is meant to be entirely my own experience of things and of no other person.
