Guys and Girls Blog#6-Germany Trip

We started our seventh day with a typical German breakfast of meat, cheese and buns. The girls had the first practice of the day at nine. They worked on things from the last game like movement without the ball and attacking the proper spaces on offense. After the girls finished, the boys began their practice with the help of an great German coach, Olaf. They worked on defending the pivot and vertical movement on defense. While the boys were practicing the girls went shopping for food and Hummel, the two essentials, to get energy for our next three hour long practice. After the boys practice they took a bus to get in some last minute shopping in a sports store as well. At one, the girls began their joint practice with Olaf and his team. It was an great experience to have a different style of coaching. It was hard but they learned a lot and made some friends with the German team. Almost immediately after practice, we all boarded the bus to the head to boys game against bad swartau. The boys began with solid warm up but unfortunately didn't play our best handball and lost to a very good team. Heading back to the our hostel we enjoyed a team supper and free time to end the evening. Finally, for the boys goofy suit, Alosious got it for stealing a shirt that Kate wanted to buy and buy it for his teacher instead. For the girls, Ricki got it for being trying to hard to be fashionable and wearing her court shoes outside to match he rest of her outfit.
