Game on! Broom ball is a smash!


Mercy's Saturday morning riding lesson took a break from the usual and tried their hands at broom ball on horse back.  It was a success.  After desensitizing their horses to the brooms and ball, the riders did a little moving of the ball down and back the length of the arena.  Barb McCosh and Emily Stone were made team captains.  Mercy got on a horse to even out the teams, three and three.  It is not recommended to play this babreback, notes Mercy.
Barb had Katio O'Connell and Ally Martin on her team and Emily had Mercy and Mae Johnson.  They scrimmaged for about 20 minutes and the final score was 3 to 2, Barb's team won.
It was really fun and we were chatting about making this something we do more often!  Who's up for it?
