Today at the Games!

In all of life’s pursuits there will definitely be ups and downs. Today was a day of heartache for 2 of the 3 games played. In girl’s softball, we found ourselves trailing by 7 runs after our opponents managed to covert 2 fly catches. Despite the odds our girls still persisted and tried to make a comeback with unfortunately did not come through. Watching the game myself I could feel the pressure and the stress from the entire situation and its is understandable that at times it is difficult to overcome the odds and be victories especially when the spirit of your opponents swell.

Our hockey guys put up a brave fight as well! It was a victory we should have claimed but it was unfortunate that their star player returned and single-handedly help his hall make a comeback. In the 1st half Yew Loong played exceptionally well converting a spectacle goal. However in the 2nd half Hall 10’s national player made a shot from off his position from a short corner resulting in a penalty shootout in which we were defeated. As mention before there is no shame in defeat as our hockey boys have trained hard and played well. We salute their effort and next year I’m certain they will again rise up to the challenge.

Our only victory today was at the tables – the table tennis tables! Well done table tennis team! We clinched yet another victory this time from Hall 5 winning 3 set to 1. We apologise for not posting the upcoming fixtures as yet as we ourselves are unsure of them as the fixtures and matches change on a daily basis.
