THE DIARY GAME:18-09-2020:FRIDAY DIARY
Hello steemians and a big welcome to another day in the diary game.
The weather has been cold over the last couple of days.Its not surprising though.September is always known for rainfall in the Eastern part of Nigeria.
Nevertheless,I woke up around 6:00 am.....and had my morning prayers.I stayed for a while waiting till it gets to 6:45am so that I can listen to the NEWS AT DAWN.
After listening to the news,i made my bed and arranged the room.Next was to brush my teeth.
I took breakfast later on and had a warm water bath.
There would be no examination for the BECE candidates today.Its a free day for them.
However,they had played to have a testimonial hockey game with the just graduated SS3 students.They had planned to play the match on that exact day that WAEC was concluded.But due to lack of time,it was postponed.
Today is the reschedule day.Hockey, just like football has its rules.You play with stick instead of legs.Its regarded as foul play,if the ball touches a player's leg.
The game was between SS3 girls and JSS3 girls.They are the two exam classes.The boys will always prefer football.So they never participated.
The game began in earnest,the players were not very fit.They have not trained all through the lockdown period.So they were match rusty.
The JSS3 girls scored first and were in control of the game.Later on the ball hit the leg of a JSS3 Player in their goal area.So it was a penalty.
The SS3 converted the penalty.Its now 1-1 at the break.The game would be interesting in the second since the score line is level.
Now the second half has begun.Game on!!!
The JSS3 players got tired in the middle of the second half and they conceded two late goals.
The game has ended 3-1 in favour of the SS3 girls.They have won,but JSS3 outplayed them.They won by chance in my own analysis.

After the game
It was a real testimonial for them.The JSS3 will live to fight another day.Afterall,they shouldn't expect to win their senior colleagues 😆😆😆
After the game I needed to observe some rest.Soon the players started to exchange jersey. They were having a good time together.
Even though my phone was off.I remembered the diary game, though, very late.So I quickly use the phone of one of the students to capture the available players.They had already mixed up.

All the players snapped together
So the group picture is a combination of JSS3 and SS3 players.
Everyone dispatched at the end of the whole thing.I went home and freshened up.Surprisinly,the weather was favourable today.
In the evening I went to a nearby food outlet and had a dinner of garri and vegetable soup.Garri is a staple food here in the Eastern part of Nigeria.
I went home afterwards and got to bed later.

This very commendable,I have only heard about hockey but I have never participated in it,mainly cause I will always prefer football but it's not bad after all to try out new things.
The jss3 students must have surely given their seniors a tough time in the field. Who officiated the game. Were you the one?
I see you still having electricity issues,I just wish the power supply company would just provide what they are paid to do. it's so frustrating when your phones are dead. I suggest you charge with the first sign of power. Have a nice day..

Hi @whitestallion thank you for visiting my blog.
The JSS3 students really gave their seniors a run for their money.Its unfortunate that they lost.
No,I didnt officiate the match.The school have a HOCKEY COACH.The school HOCKEY COACH did the officiating.
Do have a nice time.

Your day was well spent, I guess you must've laughed yourself out watching them play 😂 cause girls won't fail to display drama in their game. They were fortunate indeed and the junior students have used up their fighting spirit in the first half of the game, so pity for them.

@iamdanny You understand it bro....The players were shouting all through the game.Female sports is something else:it's a drama series 😃😃😃😃
Definitely,the junior students were exhausted.That was why they lost.
Thanks for coming through.
