Sydney Olympic Park

Sydney warming up for the tryout.

Sydney's tryouts were in the Olympic Park.

Sydney decided she wanted to try out for the New South Wales state volleyball team.  Her coach from St. Mary's thought she would have a good chance.  The tryouts were held in the sports halls of the Sydney Olympic Park.  It is a really big place.  She is trying out for the U15 team.  They practice a handful of times, and then participate in the 4 day state tournament during the school holidays.

Monster skate park

He started on the smaller ramps.

He is already to go.

Dagan wasn't very excited to go until he saw what was right in front of the sports halls.  It was a huge skate park.  Most of the kids were riding on scooters.  We were able to hire a scooter and helmet for him.  He was in heaven.  He went up and down ramps while Sydney played volleyball.  He hopes Sydney makes the team, so we can come back again.  He figures it won't be a problem for her because he feels that she makes everything she tries out for.  What a great brother!

 Yeah! Sydney made the team.  We only had to wait a couple of days to find out.
