Thanks KD!
Little update for anyone that's interested (don't know where else to put it). Some of you know I'm going on a trip to the US. Well, I'm going on Monday! I'm very excited, always wanted to go. Our first stop is Selinsgrove, PA. We play a few games, then move on to Hun prep school in Princeton NJ. More games, then on to Yardley, PA. Same story. That's it in a nutshell, although we'll be doing alot more activities in between such as we're going to Great Adventure in NJ on the 19th. I'm not sure if I'll be brave enough to go on all the coasters but we'll see!
I did say previously that we're supposed to be meeting Jason Thompson (this before he was drafted by us). My coach still isn't sure if he'll be able to meet us. I'm not getting my hopes up as it seems likely that he'll be too busy with the Kings to come and see us when we visit Rider. There's still some chance but I'll prepare for the worst. We will definitely be visiting Rider University and meeting Tommy Dempsey. There is a camp going on at Rider when we're there so I'm not sure if we're taking part or not.
We're also going to visit Penn. State University so that should be good fun also. Apart from this the host families we're staying with have some activities organised for us, so all in all it's shaping up to be a very fun trip. It's a great opportunity to play against better players etc. Our coach has been taking teams over the last six or seven years and they've always had a great time. A couple years ago one of the guys got offered a scholarship at a college in the US, but he didn't take it as he had gotten his course organised over here.
It's long news, but to me it's very good!
Hopefully I'll have some news (and
if we meet Thompson, some pics
) for everyone when we get back!
