The UnderDawgs are back in action!

Good day people!

The Underdawgs are back, finally!
I know it's been a very long while since this blog has been updated by anyone.
Reason being, I (Christopher Koh) can't update this blog as much as I could last semester due to the very poor USM hotspot wireless services offered here in the hostel.
I'm very sorry on behalf of Minden UnderDawgs Floorball Club... Sorry!!!
Since I can't go online as much as I want to, I have delegated the job of blogging for the Underdawgs to fellow dawg, Kevin Ho. A million thank you to Kevin! ;)

There's definitely many interesting news to update you guys with since the APAC competition sometime last year. We will slowly bring forth these news to you from time to time. Fret not! The news will start overflowing once again! ;)
Just be sure to check out this blog from time to time!

One of the more significant news or changes that has taken place in our club this semester is the transition of our club name - Minden Underdawgs to Minden UniHawks.
We have decided that it's time for our club to step out of the "underdogs" mindset and to rise up from where we are right now, to push ourselves to achieve a higher goal and objective in the area of Floorball. Thus, we want to identify ourselves with the spirit of a Hawk, soaring high.
Having said that, we want you people to know that we will still be using Minden Underdawgs as our main club name for year 2008.
This year will be the transition period for our club.
So, buck up and rise up UnderDawgs!

For now, the hottest competition in town has just begun...

The Penang Floorball League 2008!


Yes, yes, yes! This exciting and intense competition kicked off, or should I say "sticked" off (lame*), almost two weeks back. The competition is split into two divisions:

Division 1: Contact Fireants, Minden UniHawks, Frontliners Spartans, and Innebandy! Co
Division 2: Dalat Eagles, Ztec 8cers, Frontliners Trojans, and Contact Bullets

Below are the fixtures and results of the games played so far

Contact Sports):


Minden UniHawks played their first game last Saturday night against the much experience team, Contact FireAnts.
As predicted, FireAnts proved lethal in their team play and years of experience, they were just a hand full for UniHawks to handle and they eventually won the game 5-1.
Having said that, the Hawks led by Captain Sarah Ng played wilfully with spirit and passion.
Captain Sarah said the Hawks, although lost 5-1 to FireAnts, played much better than expected and it was a good start for them.

UniHawks' following game will be against the much skillfull and talented team of players, Innebandy! Co. on the 4 March 2008.
I would strongly encourage all UniHawks, players or non-players, to come and support!
We definitely need all the cheers we can have to be there :)

Below are photos of the game in action taken by the awesome photographer, Sadat Foster (thanks!!!)...

Enjoy!

The "stick"-off!
