Nothing soft about soft ball

Have u ever tried playing softball? Until having actually playing a match today I realise how challenging the game actually is! Today we faced off against Hall 9 and it was really an exciting match. Also, I’m happy to announce that we manage to emerge victorious under the blazing afternoon sun!

Its was a close match today as we started off fielding in the first inning. We played a good defensive game converting an early fly catch and with Si Kuan’s exceptional pitching we only conceded 3 home runs. Next it was our turn to bat; we too only managed to convert 3 home runs in our inning. If you were at the pitch today you would constantly hear both sides taunting each other, “SWING BATTER! NO SWING NO FUN!” was being yelled at our Hall 2 batter all the time. It was really physiological warfare at its best; part and parcel of the game.

Our break through came much later in this low scoring game where we managed to convert 7 homeruns putting the pressure on our opponents who needed 4 to stay in the game in their next batting round. In the afternoon heat and sweat soaked shirts our defences held strong as we held them from converting to emerge victorious! Congratulation guys! Make sure your there to see us in the quarter finals!
