My daughter was a mad keen soccer player from kindergarten. She played with boys teams until 12yrs when the ruling body said she was no longer allowed. So she did netball for a year and had more injuries than all the years she played soccer. Next year was high school and all female teams, where she thought they all 'played like girls'.

We had many weekends away for matches, indoor soccer twice a week and girls teams outdoor on Saturdays. She played in the northwest (NSW) comp, and represented the state in under 16s.
After leaving school and getting an apprenticeship as a spray painter in a local panel shop, she played in local area ladies comp. The birth of her own daughter brought a stop to playing, but she still watches when she can.
I wonder if grand daughter will follow in mum's footsteps as she has a lot of her traits.

Well I thought I would add to the Dad Brag moment, Jaimie Lee has moved up a grade this year, she opens the batting and is the teams wicket keeper.

her team got a towelling today, but she scored half her teams runs, and also effected two run outs and took a catch behind the wicket, fingers crossed she might get picked for Darling Downs this year.

she also really into her cricket, her favourite player is Alyssa Healy who plays for Australia, and was yelling at the TV last night when AB Delvillers got his field placing's wrong, thought it was bloody hilarious.

My daughter is Deputy Head of a Primary School, so I guess she's got the chalk in her blood too.

Well i am back to brag, Jaimie-Lee and i played in the same cricket match together for the first time, she was only a substitute fielder for us, but it was pretty awesome to have her at mid off while i was patrolling the covers...

And to top it off one of the parents from her junior club sent us some amazing photos of the match they played this morning

Jaimie-Lee made the Darling Downs Squad! We are off to the u12 Queensland cricket state titles!

I am one very proud dad! She has put in so much personal work and dedication to improve herself and her skills to make the squad, she was up against 25 girls to make a team of 12

Here she is with the members of her club side that where also picked
