First Football

My boy played his first game of football for his school today. A bit of a rite of passage moment.

Let the record show that the match was away at St George’s Grammar School in Mowbray.
Playing into the wind in the first half, his side were 5-1 up at the break and finished the game 10-3 winners. Alex played left back and, although he didn’t have much to do, nailed each one of the five important tackles he had to make and didn’t put a foot wrong.

Let the record also show that I’m a very proud father.
