I had the pleasure of playing golf on The Carrick on Loch Lomond. A beautiful course in one of the most scenic parts of Scotland. The service from the minute I arrived was 1st class but unfortunately that didn't rub off on my golf - it was poor. I shouldn't complain as I haven't exactly had the time to practice and looking at it positively I was consistent - I hooked everything so the error was the same one. Better that than spraying them every where. But I still had fun and won a minor prize which is better than a slap in the face with a wet fish.
I left early, before the prize giving, to rush to watch my sons 1st league match of the year. That is when the blues set in watching them play way below their potential. Standing on the sidelines isn't easy and you feel totally out of control. Add to this the opposition parents shouting abuse at us and the referee being a great advert for specsavers and was on remote control to the opposition coaches and you get the drift. In the end our team, and our coaches, just weren't good enough but when the breaks go against you, you have to brush yourself down and make sure you don't find yourself in that position again. I'm not saying you need to win everything, just give yourself the best chance. Back to training tomorrow and I think I will feel better, more in control.
