Three days left until my team hosts our first tournament, the Beachside Brawl. We have gone from a small group being helped at our first practice by UCLA players, to dominating our first tournament thanks almost entirely to athletic ability, to surviving a 16 hour car trip to play in below-zero temperatures, to playing together better than I ever could have imagined at Western Cup, and eventually qualifying for the World Cup. This tournament is a direct result of all of the work we've put in all year. If we hadn't qualified, this tournament wouldn't be happening, because it's what we did as an alternative to World Cup. I am immensely proud of my team for stepping up. Evan always said "You guys have NO idea how much work it is to run a tournament." To some extent we still don't, because he took on so much of the work himself. Thanks Evan! Our other teammates have been working to help, too. Even teammates we've gained as recently as last week are helping by hosting, organizing, and volunteering. I am so excited to see every one of the teams that is coming to Beachside. I am excited to show them how damn beautiful Santa Barbara is. I'm excited to give them a fun and fantastic tournament. I'm excited to beat them at quidditch ;) Our team is not even a year old. Just imagine what we can do in the next year. Go Blacktips! It's always Shark Week!
