Gamers!

Is the team name.

And that's what I was up to this past weekend. My lill' brother's school was at Mang'u High for a high school tournament and he was playing in the handball team.


Got there ten minutes to his game and I couldn't believe him! He looked so grown in that uniform and honestly, I was proud of him.

I had to capture this team building prayer session before they went in...


At first, the game was so tensed up as we all wanted our team to win and every time the Gamers scored, I was the loudest of the cheering squad.

Should have been there. To me, they played perfectly well but no ten seconds went without a "c'mon! close up that gap Kaume!"
 "Do you not know your position Mwiti?"
 "The ball is your only goal in there, Linus!"
"Munene! can you stop looking around!"
"What's wrong with you Maina! Go get the ball!"

Am pretty sure I knew all their names by half-time and I had to ask why the coach was so harsh. Answer: That's wot they need to keep them alert. And they really were alert.



The coach had more to say at half-time.


Gamers lost narrowly to Aquinus (9-8) but the coach was so happy, I was surprised. He said they did it so well and the Aquinus coach agreed they, too, hadn't been so greatly challenged in a long time.

I was happy for them and I would definitely go to another of their game. GO GAMERS!




oh, I, too, got my seconds of fame with the STAR.
