IHG 181208/ Table Tennis & Water Polo

TABLE TENNIS
It was an exciting and yet another fruitful experience for our very own hall 2 table tennis IHG players this afternoon! Our players were energised and ever-ready for a good fight with our opponents from Hall 9. They started off enthusiastically with rounds of warm up within our own players, while waiting for the game to officially start off. There were 5 matches to be played in total this afternoon.

The first match to kick off was the table tennis guys singles. When the match began, the opponent immediately took an early lead. Our player hence fought very hard and managed to reclaim some points to make up for the lost ground. However, despite his best efforts, the experienced Hall 9 player eventually won this round.

The girls single was second in the lineup. Hall 2 sent an experienced player and she commanded the game. She displayed excellent control over the ball and handed her opponent’s attacks smoothly. As such, she defeated the Hall 9 player and claimed the first victory for Hall 2’s table tennis matches today.

The third match was that of the guys doubles. The match was exciting as both teams appeared to possess similar skill levels and experience. The score was neck to neck as our Hall 2 players fought valiantly to win. In the end, it was unfortunate that we lost by a slight margin with the victory going to Hall 9 instead.

The girls doubles took place next. Our players were confident and held their ground as they starved off the opponents’ attacks. They worked well together and moved seamlessly as a team. Hall 2 hence won the round as a result of their great coordination and wonderful team play.

The final match was the mixed doubles. Hall 2 and Hall 9 were now standing at even ground with 2 victories each. This match would thus decide the winner of the day. Though there were some tense and nerve wracking moments when it seemed that the Hall 9 players would gain the upper hand, hall 2 kept their cool and played excellently, allowing us to walk away with a victory of 3-2 overall.

Well done everyone!


WATER POLO

The water polo players of Hall 2 were fantastic in their match against Hall 13. Our players played well and were constantly on the attack. It came as no surprise when they quickly took the lead a short time into the match. By the second half, Hall 2 was still going strong as they extended their lead comfortably without much resistance from the players of Hall 13. In fact, the water polo players of Hall 2 did so well that our goalkeeper was rarely called into action as the opposing team was unable to advance near the goalpost. Hall 2 water polo males walked away with a stunning score of 17-nil, thrashing their opponents of Hall 13. It was a short and exciting match indeed with the thrilling goals scored by our various players. Congratulations to all!
