Mizuno Boston

     
      This weekend I am going to Boston for a volleyball tournament and I can't wait.  The tournament is run my Mizuno and the tournament "Winterfest" is also run by Mizuno.  This tournament has about 100 courts set up and Winterfest only had 12 courts so this will be a lot bigger of a facility and there will be a lot more teams.
      In the U14 category there are 56 teams.  The ages go from U12 to U18. There will be about 455 teams total at this tournament which is awesome because it shows that volleyball is growing rapidly.  For the U14 category, there are three categories, club, open, and USA.  My team is in the club category which is the lowest category but it will still be competitive.
      My team plays early Saturday morning and we play three games on Saturday.  After we play the three games we can go back to the hotel and go swimming.  I am so excited for this weekend because Sunday is my birthday and I get to do my favorite thing, volleyball.  Every year on my birthday or around my birthday, I get to pick where we go for dinner.  This year I chose to go to Morton's steakhouse, a really fancy steakhouse in Boston near my hotel, and I am thrilled that I can go to this restaurant. I can't wait to get to Boston and play volleyball and spend my birthday in Boston with some of my best friends and family.
