Team Dinners

 Food, food, food, and more food. When you're an athlete all we want to do is eat. We are hungry before games, after games, even in between games. Usually, every team has organized dinners together. Every season we have about six team dinners hosted either at a teammates house or in the high school commons. They range from Mexican tacos to breakfast for dinner. Breakfast for dinner by far is the favorite amongst the team. It first started when I was a freshman. My mom, Karen's mom, and Molly's mom all decided we should do a breakfast dinner. Since then we have done three and we hope the tradition will continue.

 The dinner includes a wide variety of foods. The best are the pancakes prepared every year by my dad. Did I mention these pancakes are chocolate chip? I must say they're pretty tasty. There are also plain pancakes, but those are for the squares. Of course we have tons of sides as well. We have blueberry, chocolate chip, and cinnamon muffins. There's also sausage and bacon. For drinks we have CHOCOLATE MILK, and orange juice. Chocolate milk is the most commonly chosen just cause it's so good.

 

 Overall team dinners are fun because we eat delicious food, and get to mess around with each other. At our first team dinner we had someone pierce some other girls ear. Everyone was crowded around watching. It was pretty interesting to say the least. Besides that we all just like to talk as a team since we normally don't get to do that when we are on the field. We are all just our crazy selves when we hang out together.
 Team dinners are a great way to bring everyone together after a hard workout on the field. Whenever we have one scheduled, it just makes me work harder as practice knowing we get to eat right after. I think we can all agree team dinners are fantastic for many different, but all good, reason!!



Just looking at these makes me want some.
