The next day, Alex arrived at school a little earlier than usual.
Because you need to report the university football team early.
In fact, for Alex, his heart is still very excited.
Because he was a rugby fan in his previous life, unfortunately the national rugby is too niche and can only be a spectator.
He thought countless times that he could become a Chinese professional player in the NFL!
So it is necessary for Alex to do this! For nothing more, just for the same love!
...
Soon, Alex reached the team location. At first, he thought there would be no one when he arrived early, but he did not expect not only people, but also the players and coaches of the Rugby team.
He has even gone to the stadium to start playing training matches.
Only a person who stayed looked at Alex: "Are you Alex?"
Seeing Alex Assent, the man extended the palm of the hand: "Hello, I am the assistant coach Davis and I am waiting for you by order of the chief coach John." Oh By the way, they have gone to train, you know, it already started in September. "
After listening to this, Alex realized that university football usually begins in September and levels of level D1 have a game every week.
First play well in their respective leagues and then compete with other powers of the League for the final championship. This tournament is commonly known as the Rose Bolw and is the greatest honor for university teams.
Even the popularity of its stadium is not inferior to popular stars concerts! Oh no, it should mean that the star concert is far from comparable!
You know, these universities have earned a lot of money trusting in the part of live events, and you can imagine how many people in the United States love rugby! Otherwise, why admit to possible high school sports students for free?
To put it without surroundings, it is because they can make money!
And Stanford University belongs to the Big 12 League, that is, the PAC-12 League!
These include universities such as Berkeley, Washington, Motorola, oh cursed be, Colorado ...
At this time, Alex took the hand of the assistant coach Davis: "Thank you for waiting for me."
Davis raised his eyebrows: "In no way, because I want to tell you what to clean."
A little ashamed, but that's fine, that's what I'm doing right now!
Davis seemed to see Alex's dilemma, just to see him point out in the direction of the court: "I know your dream of joining the team, anyway, the stadium also needs to be cleaned, why are we not going to see his training game now?"
Alex, of course, agreed!
First, you can learn more about Rugby and, secondly, you can judge mainly for what position it is adequate.
As a field marshal? Corridor? Open receiver? Hang on a minute...
But one thing is now sure, it will definitely go to the offensive group!
"Thank you, coach, it couldn't be better."
"Oh, you have thanks several times in a short period of time. Sometimes I wonder if you are an American citizen. You are like a Chinese who studied abroad."
After saying that, Davis took the lead and left, and Alex followed him hurriedly.
I must say that unconsciously has the characteristics of an oriental, and compared to the integration of the original owner in this country, it is still a bit worse.
Because the way to greet them here is generally the following: Sara Barbichi ...
This is not what Alex said, because he had already heard the roar of the chief coach John as soon as he reached the court.
"Sara Barbichi! Bitch Daniel, can you play? You are playing as an inner striker! It's to protect the field marshal!
Before the ball of the field marshal is triggered, even if he is dead, you can't let the opponent break your defense! You understand!?
You have cultivated this pig in vain! Stupid pig! Stupid to the extreme! "
...
Alex was stunned by the talk for a while, isn't it so exaggerated to play a ball?
Davis explained: "Alex, you have to understand John." After all, in Stanford we have not won the Rose Bowl in 40 years, and the last time we won was the last time.
So John was too anxious to make a difference.
This year is our most promising year, and he, Daniel, is our best attacker, and John cannot be blamed for his lack of positive attitude and his low performance in training matches. "
After saying that, Davis suddenly looked at Alexy smiled: "Look, maybe from the point of view of being scolded, your cleaning is a better option!"
Alex was not interested in that joke and could not help saying a bit seriously: "If I am in the field and I am passive and lazy, then I deserve that they scold me." After all, it is a team competition and I need to be responsible for my other teammates. "
Upon listening to Alex to say this, Davis naturally was surprised a bit.
But what he said was fine, or it sounded well.
But those good words are the ones who like to say the Chinese students, but at the really critical moment, most of them cannot do this.
Then Davis nodded with indifference: "It's fine, I hope you play in the future, a new training round is about to start, I have to help John."
"OKEY, you are first busy."
After Davis left, Alex stayed alone on the sidelines and watched the training game.
The Stanford football team is divided into first, second teams and training. Now the field is a match between the first and the second team.
As the name implies, a team is the main or holder force. The second team is an alternate player, and is also the best replacement for a team after someone graduates or goes to the professional league.
It can be said that the potential is unlimited.
The training team is relatively at the bottom of the garbage, and basically have no hope of playing professionally, and it would be good to be able to mix with the second team and enter the team list before graduating.
You heard it well, except for the first and second team, the training team is not a team member at all.
Do you think Alex's overwhelming status? Oh, then it is even less likely that this is on the list of the team, duly subcontracted.
But Alex doesn't care, now he's in his third year and this year he is ready to brush his face and system points. Of course, exercise is essential.
Otherwise, the system could not be updated and, naturally, it did not make sense that it would like to play.
When he was in the last year, he let coach John know what it means to look the other way.
But for the moment, Alex still had a good understanding of the general rules of rugby, after all, it was a parallel universe and was afraid of any difference ...
