Our ward does intramural teams every semester, and our ward is Not known for our skills in those sports. Somehow we always lose. It is quite sad. This spring, however, our kickball team was awesome. Here’s why:
1. You can have almost 18 people on a roster, in hopes that 8 or 10 will actually come. We had between 12 and 15 people coming every single game! Although that made it so we sat out a lot of the time, I just think it was awesome that everyone would come. SO much better than trying desperately to scrape a team together when it’s five minutes to the game and only 3 people are there…
2. Our ward is super awesome, and we always had between 10 and 15 fans, and with the people sitting out during different innings, it looked like we would have 30 fans! Our ward is funny because we always have a big line of lawn chairs at the game.
3. We actually turned out to be good! We made it all the way through the tournament, and unfortunately lost the championship game, but ah well. We got Second Place! Not that anyone cares about second place, but it’s the farthest our ward has gotten in a really long time.
We lost, as Callie calls it, “the elusive shirt” again. Maybe next year!
I loved intermurals my first year of college.I had an awesome ward that supported it and we all had so much fun! Glad you enjoyed it this year...
