proud mum... time zone... fun and semi finals...........

Comment Published at 15:1315:1319 comments19 comments23 Visits23 VisitsReport

hi everyone

just had to share my news im one proud mum at the moment. my son is ih disneyworld for a soccer tournament organised by the states(america).

they have made it into the semi finals. (all info including results are published on web) if anyone is curious you can google. australian football skool

australian football skool is an academy that is run here in melbourne. there are updated photos of disneyworld and they had a stop over in LA where they saw the great david beckham play!

orlando florida where disneyworld is located are about 15 hours behind us. so when i called 12.30 am melb time my son was just about to enter the star wars ride. can you call in an hour ? he says .i will be asleep by then i tell him (1.30am melb)  but could i sleep? so i hung on and called . im so glad i did. they were just about to head off and watch the under 17s play.

our under 17s needed to win this match to get into the finals

anyway our under 13s and under 14s (my son coaches the under 14s ) have both made the semis they play saturday afternnon (sunday in melbourne) so i will be awaitng the results with great anticipation.

what i saw of the photos all the children are enjoying themselves. there are a few girls that made the soccer team so i say well done to the girls!

i need my early cup of coffee . i am soooo tired but im working

hope you all enjoy your weekend

cheers annie

Re: proud mum... time zone... fun and semi finals...........

thanks . because of the time difference we have to wait a little bit longer and then we are sleeping then they are but i will probabbly either stay up or wake up in the middle of the night to make a call.

it will be afternoon in the states then so thats the best alternative

cheers annie

hi arna yeah disneyworld is huge  so they are having lots of fun whilst disneyland is the origional site everyone now goes to disneyworld its bigger and all the theme parks are there .

yeah he is so motivated. i m pleased they made the semis becaiuse he had said before he left that even if they didnt make the semis the experience itself will be great.

so im glad his side have got this far. i give him a lot of credit because as a coach he is so in tune with the youth. he always draws on his experience when he was  a youth

cheers annie
