It started out as a normal day, but the same day proved that anything and everything can change within a day. As usual, I took my sports gear and went for practice. When I reached the training ground, my coach insisted that I go for a selection conducted by the Kerala Blasters Club for building up their U-18 team.
Reaching there, I was stunned to see lots and lots of players who were highly professional. I felt like a local boy and wanted to leave the place as fast as possible. But, when I reached the exit, one of my friends called and asked me to take part in the selection trials. I half-heartedly decided to give it a try. Without a proper mindset and with the meagre confidence that I could muster, I participated in the trials.
The selection procedure had two rounds and I got selected to the second round. But, standing next to those famous national players, my confidence was still at a low ebb. At last, I was called in for a game as the last part of the selection process. I played the game with a heart beating way too fast. The referee blew the whistle and the selectors read out the names of the players who were selected to be a blaster. The first name they called was mine. I felt shocked and the shock gave way to excitement. I was on cloud nine and that is how a day that started out normally ended with it being the most unforgettable day of my life.
