How do I go about playing overseas? Who do I talk to? Is there a recruiting process? When does the season start?

Dear Athlete, Be A Conundrum

I’m living outside of my comfort zone, and all those other emotions pale in comparison to the amount of HAPPINESS I feel each day when I remember I’m literally LIVING OUT MY DREAM!
love your sport
Why do we play sports anyway? Because they’re fun, right? At least I hope that’s why someone would play.

I wanted to be free of the ever lingering shadow of frustration that came along with putting my personal value into something so futile as a game.
guest post: the other side of seventeen
For those of you who read my sister’s blog post ‘Seventeen’ – thank you. Perhaps you were like myself – a crying mess. Maybe you weren’t. That’s okay too.

Short and sweet. But, not many people really know the significance of why it is so special to me to first, wear this number and second, answer that question the way I do…
