Another week has gone by and another week of waiting for the phone to ring. This time through a coached called me from Cowdenbeath (division 2), otherwise known as the blue brazil, which funny enough anyone I've asked doesn't know why. Tuesday night they played in the Scottish cup against Dundee, which ended up in a 3-0 loss for Cowdenbeath. It was going to be an interesting night before I even got to see the grounds as I had a tough time getting in. I'll never forget the moment I walked into this stadium as I noticed a fence going all the way around the field and more importantly the fact that there was some form of a track around it. Unlike many facilities where a running track may be around the soccer pitch, this was totally surprise. This track was for racing cars around! I couldn't believe it, so when I got home I went onto youtube to check it out and it was just that. The Thursday night I attended training with the team, which was interesting as well. We ran a lap of the field for warm up quick stretch and to hear nothing but ''ok Cam get in goals.'' I was surprised that the coach was stepping right into a shooting drill without even getting a feel for the ball first. Practice went well, knowing that there was potential to get a game on the upcoming Saturday, pending on international clearance. Unfortunately I didn't receive any clearance, which wouldn't surprise me being from Canada, the csa always does this, takes their sweet time. So no games just yet, kind of getting itchy for one as it's been a while since I've properly kicked someone. I'm hoping that this week will be more productive on the field and I'll be closer to finding a team. I'll hopefully have some more information soon.
