In my previous blogs I talked about how I started to lose my interest in soccer towards the end of my high school years. I feel like I started to lose my interest because my team was horrible and always lost, no one took it seriously, and I felt like no one in my school cared about women's soccer. I remember there were some games during my senior year where I didn't even want to play a game or where I dreaded playing a game. Now that I think about it, I actually do miss soccer. I miss having something to do all the time after school and actually representing a team.
I started playing intramural 3 v 3 soccer for FSU and doing that made it really hit me that I missed soccer so much. Playing on the intramural team was definitely different than playing in high school because the intramural team was taken even less seriously than my high school team. It's not that my intramural team is bad, but its just not the same as high school soccer where I actually had practices, official referees, and could even end up in the newspaper from time to time.
This is not to say that I don't enjoy playing intramural soccer because I really do. Although it does not give me the full experience that I used to get when I played soccer, it gives me the chance to get out there and reconnect with a sport that used to be a major part of my life.
