HOCKEY IN HONDURAS!

Carlos Edwardo sprint down the ice with unparalleled focus,
easily most valuable player this season...


This last partial at the school has been hilarious in gym class.. I mean I've really loved it. We've been playing the best sport ever.. it's new to the kids.. mere weeks ago they had no idea what they were doing or what these plastic sticks were for, and now they have a blast every gym class and ask me if we're playing again next class. They've all got into it and have stayed so interested we've just kept playing!

Face Off's, penalty shots, he shoots he scores! The high school kids look on in wonder, locals passing by stop and seem confused. What are this game? Eyes lock waiting for the ball to drop. Yellow and red plastic sticks flash around the court chasing an old yellow tennis ball. My friends, Hockey has arrived in Honduras!

Hockey rocks Mr. Mark!
