Today we had to wake up early for a 6:30 game
against Rockford Raptors. We met in the lobby for breakfast at
7:00. After breakfast we went back to our rooms until 8:15. we
got to the fields around 8:30 and began our warm ups.

We had a sloppy start during the
beginning of the game but then we picked up our intensity and
ended up with a 2-1 win.

After the game we went to the Milk House
for awhile then came back to the hotel. Some players
went into the pool while others went to their rooms to clean
up and rest.
We had a meeting at 5:00PM. After our meeting we rested
for an hour before we met in the Lobby to go out for dinner at
Golden Corral. We got back to the hotel around 8:30 and went
to our rooms to get more rest.

We met in the lobby at 11 AM all dressed
up for the player luncheon, which took place at 11:30. The
guest speaker was Bob Gansler, the head coach for the Kansas
City Wizards. We started the luncheon with many coaches and
staff of each region being introduced. Then we ate lunch while
they introduced each team on the big screens. Then we watched
a video highlight from each region.
After the luncheon, we went back to our
rooms and rested up for a little while. Then, at 2:30, we met
downstairs in the lobby and drove to the “The Wide World Of
Sports Complex” and practiced at their fields, getting used
to the heat. We practiced for about an hour, then drove back
to the hotel. Some people went to relax in the pool for ONLY
10 minutes. Then we continued relaxing until 7:30 PM, when we
met for dinner, which was at an Italian restaurant. After
waiting for 2 hours, we had to pay $15 for the meal! Then we
came back to the hotel around 10 PM and then went back to our
rooms to get ready for the morning and go to sleep.

We met at the airport at 12:30 in San
Diego, our flight was at 2:25. The flight was long, some
people watched the movie, In Bad Company. We arrived in
Houston, Texas, at about 8 PM, then our next flight was like
an hour later. Our flight was packed with athletes, including
another region 4 team. Some people slept on the flight, which
was 2 hours. We arrived in Orlando around 12:30 AM, then we
had to walk really far to get our luggage, and it took a long
time, “was quite a journey”. Then we got into our van and
drove to the hotel, got there around 2 AM. Then people tried
to sleep.
