SDSC Soccer Tournament
Yesterday Saturday went to participate in SCDC soccer tournament, held at Tampines SAFRA. I and the team went there to represent AWWA to challenge for a trophy. I indeed feel honoured to be able to represent AWWA A via AWWA van (long time never sit on tt van liao hehe)
The 1st team played a match at 9.20am. Surprisingly, we realised that we were challenging not against disabled people, but normal people. The opponent played fast, one touch passing football, in the end we lost 5-1 in that match. Althought that, i felt tt the team played their best, and our goalkeeper was fanastic. They lost another match 5-0 and got eliminated, but credit to them , they did AWWA proud.
At the other end, after which, the other team( which I was in) went to the training ground to practice. We had a selection difficuty of choosin a goalkeeper, so it was left to me and kelvin to fight it out for the No.1 jersey. Having played as a keeper when i played with my primary school friends, I thought I could do this de. I did what i felt I can, and got to nod to start as a goalkeeper in the next match. (Even though I still would have played as a second striker, i tink). Goalkeeper is still my best position i guess...
Started the game as a goalkeeper, against a team that was normal people again. I felt of many similiarities between this and my primary school friends. So, prior to the match, I told myself to take like I am playing with my primary school friends and perform likewise can liao...While standing at the goalpost, A sudden thought just came to me and gave me much confidence, and that sudden "thought" is my secret hahaha....
Throughout the match, I felt i did ok overall, but i was bitterly disappointed, that I conceded a goal though getting a strong hand to the shot..haiz...Thus, we lost 1-0 in the end..managed to qualify to next round though...
After that, the team captain gave us a harsh team talk sia...zzz...
After soccer tournament, went back ACCESS there. Peter, TJ and me went to gome ground find amanda they all for extra guitar practice...Thanks so much Amanda to carry my guitar and looking after it, 辛苦了你=))
My guitar got restring-ed by Daniel, yea. So, when practice will go off tune. I took time to get used to it, i was abit disappointing at the start, short of confidence( though I played combine with amanda haha) Overall, I was very disappointed with my performance during extra practice..
Practice ended early, coz amanda had to go off early. her mum came to fetch her ya, so thats that. Followed Peter, YP, TJ to dinner then go home together with Peter..
