"Good session, boys," Coach Berglund announces with a wide grin. "Keep that up and we’ll definitely beat those suckers from Ekerö in two weeks."
His words are met with general cheers and grunts of agreement from the players around Eric as they all walk off the field and grab their water bottles. As always, the coach has been working them hard and relentlessly throughout the practice session and every muscle in Eric’s body is sore from the workout.
As Eric moves to follow the rest of the team into the showers and changing room, he is stopped by the coach’s voice: "Hey, Petterson, can I talk to you for a second?"
There would be no point in arguing, of course, so Eric just breaks out of the crowd and walks over to the coach, who looks at him with a serious expression. "That performance from you today wasn’t bad," he says. "But it also didn’t blow me away. You do still want to go pro, don’t you?"
