Elves And Escapades (Scholars And Sorcery Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
We have a set of home games against a local High School with an excellent games reputation. My brood of chicks in the lower school distinguish themselves with four goals in the Third Eleven and I feel as proud as if my own child has won an Olympic medal. They have worked themselves half to death for me, turning out to every extra practice regardless of weather and treating my coaching like gospel, and I love them for it. I’ll stand out in the icy rain shouting advice and encouragement for this lot any time, so long as they keep turning out in the mud. Miss Carroll really was doing something wonderful for me when she made me Games Captain, not just heaping me with unwanted responsibilities. Watching my girls play, I feel like I am really achieving something for the school and for myself. The gallant efforts of the Third Eleven are not enough to save the match for Fernleigh. The Second and First retire in disgrace with two goals each, one of which I’ve scored. The first-formers chosen for the hallowed duty of bringing us lemon halves at half time beam at me with admiration completely out of proportion to what I’ve actually done.
