ALWAYS A TEAM

Friday, July 27, 2007

I must say the whole East Zone tournament has been a really short one. Time flies. We're now the champion of East Zone after the finals against Dunman.

50-31 :)

Every training we had, every scolding we got, every match we have played, only served one purpose. And that purpose was: To prepare us for the Champion title. We proved many people wrong. Remember we lost to Dunman by 12 once? But after that match, we've learnt our lessons, got ourselves together, and yes, we did it. Some said we only had 30% chances of winning, my heart thought so too. But my mind kept saying another thing. That we could win. We held on, persevered, and there we are. We picked ourselves bravely even though we fell, be it a bad one or not. We helped each other out when in need, we care for one another. This is the making of a dream team.

On that fateful day, I saw a different side of Coach. Coach was never this happy. I guess he felt very proud of us, and we too, are proud of him. I've mistaken him umpteen times in the past and now thinking back, I was wrong. I thought everything he did was for my sake, and our sake. Well, thank you Coach :]
(Seriously both coaches felt very happy training us as compared to last year's C'Division)

I'm sure most of us felt nervous on that down because afterall, it's the finals! But we fared well! Good game, team! Let's move on to Higher Ground :DDDDD

Thank you supporters who cheered for us and the parents who came! ^^

Seoul Garden was indeed a nice celebration. Seeing broad smiles hanging on each and every one's face, I can't help but bring myself to smile too :) I love every one of them, and I hope we treasure the time together. Because after the Nationals, we won't be a team anymore. Sec2s will move on to B'Division and Sec1s will remain in C'Division. By this time, I think every one will feel really sad. So, Nationals is the time for us to hold our memories, and treasure the remaining time we have together. If not, we'll have to wait 2 years later. Maybe not 2 years, could be even lesser. I hope it's lesser!

So now we're moving on to the Nationals.. We're up against Jurong West, Anderson and New Town.

We don't know much about these teams, but hopefully Coach will fill us in :D
But all we have to do is to put in effort, fight hard, win with glory. Simple because, the rest doesn't matter. The thing is, just believe in ourselves. That's the first thing we ought to do. I'm sure we'll do fine.

Remember, when we make a shot, we don't think of the consequences, but the process.
Same like, when we are playing a match, we don't think about winning or losing but rather, the process that keeps us going :)

We'll fight together, till the end. We'll make it through, together, the 12 of us.
No, should I say, the 14 of us. (We love our coaches :D)

I hope, the dream team is still there <3
