Magic vs Steel

Yesterday I went to Invercargill to watch a netball game.

I had been saving up for a Steel jersey for ages but when we went to buy one they said they had only one size twelve and they had just sold it and they had no size tens. The size eight was too small and the extra small women size was too big.

We went to the stand that we were sitting in which was the Ray Harper Stand. Mum tried to get a picture of me but I wouldn`t let her cause I was too disappointed. Dad blew up the clappers. We put down the stickers, tattoos and card that we got when we walked into the stadium. Bang bang bang! The Southern Steel and WBOP Magic were walking onto the court. Everyone clapped their clappers. Dad and I ran down to buy a Steel scarf while the teams did their warm ups. That cheered me up!

The Magic started the game they got a goal. Then the Steel got a goal and on and on. Then the Magic kept scoring.

At half time some girls did a dance. They did back flips and the splits and stuff like that.

The second half started. The Steel caught up but then the Magic got heaps more goals.

As the game drew nearer to the end I screwed up my face because there was no way the Steel could win. 

I was right the Magic won.

I went up at got nine signatures on my scarf, A free signed poster and a photo with my favourite player Storm Purvis. I saw Olivia and her cousin.

It was awesome!

  1. It was so exciting to open your blog and find this story Emma, and believe it or not I am sitting watching the Steel play the Vixens! You have made fantastic progress with this, I can't wait to teach you some new tricks in Term 2 :)
