Hockey 101...
So Ed gets a taste of roller hockey and finds he likes it. I learned to skate for a few months before trying hockey, but he just jumps in with booth feet (sometimes landing on his ass), and plays a game on DAY 1. Yesterday we hit up Mayberry Park and get kicked around by a gaggle of 8 year olds. My legs felt tired after a few hours. So what do I do?

I play again today. Two guys from the league in La Verne invite me to a pick-up game in Belmont Shores. Damn, I'm so sore. We were schooled by these guys who showed up. Keep in mind that we don't have a year of experienced combined and they've played for many years. We kept mixing the teams so both goalies could get some practice. All in all everyone was nice, we learned a few lessons the hard way.

It's an awesome place to play. The outdoor rink sits across the street from the beach. Nice ocean breezes, nice views ;)
