Take a Break

The team focuses hard on practice and the matches. Sometimes it feels like we’re being too serious. I just want to share a few photos I like from the previous weeks that stood out as being more relaxed. It is important to find moments of rest and break the tension sometimes.

All of our matches end with a short wrap of the day live on Instagram. The team sits down for a few moments and has a chat. Often there’s some goofing off, shouting, some blowing off of steam, even on the days that don’t go exactly our way. Other times, the energy is more subdued, even when it’s a win. Sometimes it’s good to simply sit for a moment.

Snagging the fun moments is my main goal for the down time. The team usually splits up quickly after a match to refresh and get water or what not, but they then come back together in the main room. Jokes get made. Laughs happen. It breaks the tension of a match. 

Yes, everyone is focused on the match, but it’s also important for them to relax. It’s important for all of us to relax.

And let’s go play some Overwatch!
