One game, one penalty

Tonight was my first indoor soccer game. One of the engineers at SCEA, my group's newly appointed technical lead actually, plays soccer and invited me to join his team. The facility is actually located in Santa Clara.

Since this was my first indoor soccer game, I wasn't aware of all of the differences in rules from outdoor soccer. Such as the no sliding rule. :-p And that, is how I got my 2-minute penalty. It wasn't even a real slide... All I did was go down to my knee while reaching for the ball. I guess if you're not standing, you're sliding. :-/ I'm going to have to adjust... And the penalty is like hockey. You serve it in the penalty box while your team plays a man down. :-O

Well, at least our team won in the end. Although apparently we don't want to win the league because we don't want to get promoted to the higher level leagues, LOL. ^_^
