The crystalized, icey turf crunches beneath the soles of my shoes and adrenaline pumps through my body, coursing through my veins. My heartbeat is racing as I wait for the first ear-piercing whistle to sound. The seconds tick by so slowly, each feeling like an eternity as I wait for the dewy, grass-stained ball to spiral out from the centre. Then it does.
The thick, grey clouds beat down on me with heavy, crisp drops of rain pelting my skin as I sprint down the length of the turf, each one stinging as they hit my sopping wet skin. I sprint as fast as my muscles can possibly let me and the ball trails beside me, slowly edging in front like it is trying to escape my grasp. I quicken my pace and watch as the small droplets of shiny, glinting water fly from the sides, illuminated by the gleaming overhead lights that stand tall above me.
