My mood while writing this blog: the lake swimmable

Scott currently is in Utah, training with the team before a game against the USA on June 30. After that, the team will travel to Switzerland for next week to star in a series of exhibition games before finally landing in London.

" We're like a family, literally, on and off the field, and I could not ask for a better group of girls to go, Scott said. I am so confident in everyone. We will do great things in London. "

Another athlete with connections Manitoba is also in the team. Chelsea Stewart, who is listed as The Pas, is a defender who played at UCLA and has 32 international caps for Canada. She grew up in Denver, Colorado, but his father's family is from The Pas.

I am happy to be part of this experience together. I am very happy to be in the Olympic village, putting on the jersey of Canada and the march to our anthem. "

Asked if she would go as far as partying with a tattoo, Scott laughed. I'm going to get my nails done, getting the Olympic rings on my thumbs. "

But still did not rule out the idea

Soccer Canada announced Monday that Scott had cracked the list of 18 players for the football team Canadian national women towards the 2012 Olympics in London

" Literally, it was just a kind of feeling great, Scott said the long awaited announcement. My jaw kind of dropped and it just all kind of became real to me at that time. I have not stopped smiling since. "

Not surprising when you consider Scott became the first woman from Manitoba to play football at the Olympics
