Friday Afternoon Treats - With a View

in #life6 years ago (edited)

I had some time off this afternoon, so Junior MJ and I stopped off to have a little father and son time after school and before heading to his basketball game.

We went to the nearby marina. How's this for a pleasant view from our table:

Nothing better than to enjoy the view with a Churros for two from San Churro. Chocolate is my kryptonite!!!

The peach iced tea for junior, ans the iced coffee for me went down exceptionally well.

After that is was off to the grand final, which I filled in as coach as the usual coach was away. The boys played very well and really worked hard all game. They ended up 9 points down with 3 minutes to go, and managed to get back to within 4 points before the buzzer sounded.

A fantastic effort, and a never give up attitude saw them almost get the win. The most important thing was that they had fun, and were still smiling at the end, despite the result. Good sports and a great bunch of kids. They were mostly an under 12 team playing up in the under 14 B league, so they really did do well to make the grand final. That in itself is a win in my books!

One more GF to go tomorrow. @nathanmj plays his u18 A league final tomorrow. We're short on players, so should make for an extemely tough game, with the other team full of district team players with whom @nathnmj plays in the same team. Either way it goes it should be a tough, fun game for me to coach.

I'm looking forward to the challenge!!

Nice view, nice afternoon and love churros with the chocolate dip.... Anyway, good luck with the game tomorrow! :)

Yeah, we love our Churros too!! Thanks @linnyplant, it was a good game but the boys just couldn't get the win. Went down by 8 points in the end, which was really good considering we only had 5 players on the day, so they had to play the whole game without subbing off for a rests.

That is a pleasant view. I want chocolate now XD Well done to the U12s for playing up, that's pretty tough! Good luck with the game tomorrow :D

Hehe, that chocolate treat was really good!

It was a close game, but couldn't quite get the win. We went down 63 - 55, which was still a really good effort considering we had no subs to give players a rest.
