it's different

I felt a little sad today when I found out that now our weekly floorball session has an age limit. -.- W.H.A.T
For me, one of the reasons why I enjoy floorball is because I enjoy playing with the younger ones like Joshua, Michael, Shaun, Nick, Rachel, Becky, Faith... Sometimes I get trashed by them, other times, they make me look like an abused child in the subsequent week. But it is THAT that makes me look forward to playing floorball. To be able to laugh at ourselves and each other for making mistakes, to hold little silly petty grudges against one another, and I guess that's how we bond. Especially when a lot of them have moved up to SPI, or even those that I have cg with, floorball is a time for me to enjoy their company.
I miss the time when floorball was all about fun, sportsmanship, dabbling in a sport that we're not superb in, yet still enjoy the game. That's the beauty of it. To me, that is what makes the floorball sessions so precious and worthy to go for.
The older ones are cool, but sometimes I feel like they forget that it's not about mastering floorball to the point of being superb. When we started out playing, it was our way of keeping in touch with the youths, knowing them better and to have shared memories of playing together.
I really do not like this internal age limit and I am determined to source for another venue.
