sheares basketball girls


after cruising through the first round with easy victories over KR and King Edward and staging a well deserved fight back in the semi against the eusoff in the semi, the sheares basketball girls finally came down against TH in the final.

it was a heart breaking moment at the final whistle as they fought really hard in the final. being their TM for the past few months, i do feel for them through the competition. they trained really hard during the hols and last week. they transformed from a team of no bodies to a team that was filled with fighting spirit and able to go to the finals and give TH a good fight.

i think the girls deserved more than 3 cheers.

anyway i was really honored to be the TM for this team. really appreciated Alison for giving me this chance to be the TM even through she didn't really know me at the start. hope i didn't let her down throughout the last semester. initially i was really bored whenever i had to watch them train. however, as time passed and i got to know the team better, training was n't that boring anymore. it was quite a joy actually to see them improving over time. it is like watching a infant slowly learning how to walk.

hope this defeat will be a good lesson for the young team and may this team stay together and strive even harder next year... gd work girls.
