Today was one of the most challenging days thus far in this
trip. It was storming all morning therefore our plans to go to Elbow beach, a
very popular attraction, was switched to stay inside all day. For team bonding
today, we played bingo with not only our own team but the entire resort. We had
three winners during this time and although they have yet to receive their
prizes, their winning spirit carried over to tonight’s game. Tonight we played
against the U-19 Bermuda Federation team, where we defeated them after a tough
battle. The score ended at 1-0, with Catherine Duffin scoring against the
Bermudians. After the game, both teams celebrated with a lovely pizza party and
some socializing. Each team got to interact with everyone and got to learn
about their background and cultures. Everyone is looking forward to going to
Elbow beach tomorrow, along with kayaking and paddle boarding in the morning.
Tomorrow is the teams last full day on this beautiful island and everyone is
eager to go out on our own and explore more of the culture from not only ours,
but the locals perspective as well! Although our field hockey experience here
in Bermuda has ended, there is still so much more to experience and learn from
this paradise!
