The End of Another Season, The Beginning of Many More.
It's yet the end of another semester/season for us.
Time has indeed been passing by rather swiftly.
This semester has very much been about promoting floorball and recruiting in members.
It's obvious that our club is growing very fast.
It's great!
Anyhow, I haven't had the time to blog about our recent competition outing at Dalat.
What can I say other than "JOB WELL DONE, MINDEN UNDERDAWGS!"
It was an awesome experience for all of us, especially the junior team.
I can say without a doubt and with great sincerity that we all played and gave our best.
Even though none of our teams made it through to the next round, it was a great effort from both teams.
It wasn't easy going up against professional teams and players, needless to say against the "Asian Junior Player of the Year".
But I'm truly encouraged by the team spirit.
Trailing 7-0 against the eventual champions of the competition was a great test for us.
I'm glad we managed to keep our heads up high in the midst of a heavy defeat.
But to me, it was the team spirit amongst our players that meant more to me than the numbers on the scoreboard.
Like it or not, we are a new club, only about a year old, and performance wise we are trailing behind many other teams. What we have, however, is something more important than skill, ball control or performance - Team Spirit.
And I saw that during the competition.
Yes, we didn't make it.
But fret not! There are many more competitions, friendlies and leagues to come.
What we ought to focus on is to continue improving ourselves, individually and as a team.
Please do practice at home if you do have a stick. It is crucial because coming for training once a week would not help you much. You have to put in your own initiative to push yourself if you want to reach a higher level.
In our official USM bus to Dalat!
Let the game begin!
We watch great players like Sasi, strut out their stuff on court!
Even our very own players showed some moves on court! Yea, baby!
Exhauster after the game, but it was worth every bit of it!
We reward ourselves with good old Penang food after the game! hehe...
Everyone still joyous even though we returned with no trophy!
Good job guys!!
Anyway, the next big event in our schedule would be the Pesta Hoki in Minden field, USM, in which we have been given a tent to promote floorball. It is an important event because we have been given the privilege by Hockey Club to set up our very own booth to promote Floorball!
So, if you guys are around from the 14-18 December 2007, please do drop by and help out! We need all the manpower that we can get to make this opportunity a success for the growth of this sport!
