This week saw a couple of losses for Hall 2, but ended on a high with a double softball victory.
Wed: A dominating performance by our hall 2 hockey boys was lauded by surrounding supporters from various halls. Our boys held hall 1 in their half of their pitch, achieving over 90% possession in the game. Hall 1 jammed all their players in their defensive D in an attempt to stop our boys from scoring. Despite numerous shots, our boys were unable to score a goal. After the final whistle was blown, we headed to penalties. Captain Johnson was first up, but a smart dive from the opponents keeper prevented the goal. Our keeper Wei jie also managed to save their first shot. Next up was Nicholas Tai, a well placed shot into the top left corner left the opponent’s keeper rooted to the spot. Their second shooter squeezed a shot through Weijie’s hands. our last penalty taker was Parthi. Despite our president’s determination, the shot flew wide. Hall 1′s last player placed his shot into the top corner, rendering our keeper helpless. The game ended with a loss on penalties, 2-1.
Hockey captain Johnson giving his all on the pitch.
Let’s applaud our valiant hall 2 hockey boys for their wonderful performance on the pitch. Thank you for playing with all your heart through out the competition . We believe next year will be a better year!

Fri: Friday was a day of celebration for all Hall 2 residents. Our Hall 2 softball teams clinched a well-deserved double victory in the matches early this morning at Kallang diamond. Our players were up and ready even before dawn broke to take on the competition. I am beyond proud to announce that our girls beat Hall 8 hands-down with a score of 3-1 and our boys thrashed Hall 5 to a landslide 9-3 victory.
