PTPY 2008!
Floorball has never been so individualistic in its nature until last weekend.
Play in a Team, Play for Yourself (PTPY)
What's that?
Well, trust Contact Sports in coming up with such funky names for a competition and an approach to floorball no one would ever of in this lifetime. *wink*
The concept is rather simple but the layout is a whole different story.
Players are placed into several groups, 6 in each group.
The 6 players in each group are then divided into 2 teams.
However, the catch is that players will not remain with the same team mates through out the competition.
After each match, players will be swapped around with other players in the same group to form a whole new team.
Faham?
That's basically how the competition goes.
The point system, well, that's a whole different story.
The objectives that were set for PTPY was simple:
There are others who scored like crazy but yet lack the capacity to play with different players in different positions.
And there are some who, well, just whack the ball with no real direction.
It was a really good experience for all of us especially since the competition was the first of its kind.
The older boys strutted out their stuff on court.
And it was really refreshing to see all the young guns locking and loading their sticks on court too! Needless to say how loud all the parents were screaming and cheering for them!
They rocked the house - literally! :)
Alike all other competition, there will always be one who emerges out as the Champ.
In the inaugural Men's PTPY, Bryan Looi stood out amongst the rest and became the winner.
In the women's PTPY, Pei Li from Frontliners, claimed her position as the Champ.
1st or not, we have our very own Hawk that has made us proud!
JJ from Minden UniHawk, managed to bag in the silver medal!
Congratulations to all!
Winners or not, we all had fun in the good name of floorball.....
Even if we pulled a hamstring! ;)
"Aiyo, mai ane tua lat, tiaaaaaaa!"

The objectives that were set for PTPY was simple:
- To train a player to play with different team mates as well as to play in different positions on court.
- To score as many goals as possible for your team and thus, enables you to proceed to the following round.
