When my teammates and I stretch the rules at the last competition of the season

Our manager is like:

Leaving school early for a competition

When I explain synchro to someone for the first time

They’re like:

but then I show them a video and they’re like:

When my coach adds a practice on New Years Day

When I fall right after an ice make

When my coach switches my spot midseason

When my team sees our new dresses for the first time

When they’re pretty:

When they’re ugly:

When my coach explains a complicated drill

I’m just like:

It’s May, almost June, which means SYNCHRO PRESEASON!!

Here’s a little anecdote that this made me think of:

I was trying out for a new team and the coach explained a choctaw drill. There were probably around 15 girls at this tryout and I happened to be first in line for the drill. Apparently the drill was supposed to go in a serpentine pattern but I didn’t pick up on that, so I started doing it in a straight line and then the coach had to come over and be like “No no no no.” And since I was the first in line everyone was watching and it was embarrassing. But I made the team so it’s okay!
