Like being there from the beginning, it's 97 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: been cool. 98 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 5: It's been cool because there's been a group of us 99 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 5: kind of on it from the start. And being being 100 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 5: the only founding athlete Madison, it was hard at first. 101 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 6: And last year I had Annie with me and. 102 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 5: That helped a lot because while she wasn't a founding athlete, 103 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,239 Speaker 5: she's a really experienced player. 104 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 6: Obviously, we all we all know, Annie and. 105 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 5: Just very involved in decision making and helping kind of 106 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 5: move things along in the right direction. 107 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 6: And so it's been fun to see it come to fruition. 108 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 5: And of course, like any startup, there's growing pains and 109 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 5: there's things that we're learning.

But like again, looking back on it, 499 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 1: I'm so glad that I did go and I had 500 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: those opportunities, but like to say that I would do 501 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: it now, like knowing the like there's fear when you're like, Okay, 502 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: I have to go out of the country to a 503 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: place that I have literally never heard of to go play. 504 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: That freaks me out.

I am back right, 510 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 5: and so I think it would have been really hard 511 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 5: for me to go overseas. And again, Maddie, kind of 512 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 5: like you said, maybe if it was like in Italy 513 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 5: or a Turkey, it could, I would think about it, 514 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 5: but I would probably. 515 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 2: Stay if I had well, let's think about if we 516 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: had like nil, if we had an il on top 517 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 2: of the way here.
