E.N.D of the year! Starting our NEW YEAR with a BOOMZ!

Hey guys! Since its the E.N.D(energy.never.dies) of the year! i would like to thank my whole team! Honestly, without you guys out there coming down every weekend training hard for competitions, i wouldn't had continue to manage the team and bring it to the next step. I would like to thank the Seniors who participated in TEEN GAMES 2009.We worked hard for our 2nd and 3rd placing! All of you made me so proud to be your captain! I would also like to thank those who help in dragging your friends along letting them know more about Ultimate and expanding the team. It's really a blessing to have a team of talents and cool friends:) Newbies even though some of you just joined this team not too long, but i am very encouraged that you all are training hard every training trying to get your throws and your game plays right. Last but not least, the senior girls who are JOANNA and huiting also made me proud of them. I saw a lot more effort put in improving their skills and this is one point I learned from a captain in winter league, the quote to remember forever, NEVER ENOUGH never stop improving! Let's train hard and make your family and friends proud of you! TEEN GAMES 2010 HERE DT COME!

One night in Tokyo

Heyhey! Birthday girl in the house!! (: The seniors are enjoying ourselves in Tokyo. We had 9 degrees in the day and now its freezing cold 3 degrees. BRRRRRR!!! ITS freaking cold in here!! WE NEED EXTRA CLOTHING!! :D I think huiting and elbon damn cool! Don't you think so?






Alrighty, let us continue tomorrow. Good night! (:

For those who did not participate in winter league, i strongly encourage that you come down to sengkang field for one Sunday to watch or even better float*. The gameplay and atmosphere there is totally different from our normal training i think it would be beneficial to those who are not experienced**. Those who have school starting January onwards better make yourself free on the last few Sundays and get your butts there! If you scared to go alone or anything just text/call me(Jordan), Desmond, Elbon, Jia Hao or Seng Yong.
*Float : Pay $10 to play for that day, help the teams that are short of players.
**Experienced: Everyone in Disctractors is inexperienced.

Shifting of training ground.

Hey guys i got a news to break to everyone.As for those who went for Saturday's training you would have noticed that Bishan Park is going to close down for a huge renovation and upgrading very soon. Therefore, if the park is closed by sat we will temporarily have trainings in Bishan Active soccer field. I expect everyone to come for trainings. This will be a gentle reminder from your captain, desmond to tell you to take every training we have seriously. I don't want anyone to tell me because they have to go out with friends than they skip training.Training is important.Everyone should know that our team's standard is nowhere near the other teams. We only have this few last weeks of December before most of you starts school! By the time school starts, training would only be held on Saturdays. Guys please think about your own standard and think about whether you need to train even harder after the one year of wasted time or lack of trainings. I know some of you got put in some effort to improve but we need more than putting in effort, we have to pump in alot of our efforts and commitment to be able to be a better player! let's train hard together and claim something glorious back!

Training this sat 230. Do not be late and also remember to bring your own water!

Training.

Team! this wednesday's training is from 2.30pm to darkness.9am to 12 pm is for those who cant make it in the afternoon.The morning training is only for this week. Please continue to read up and check on the blog for lesson 2#. Everyone is expected to come for training unless valid reason like school or sick. Any other reasons please tell me at least 2 days in advance. 2.30PM everyone geared up, done with warm up throws ready to start training. Late comers will face the same consequences.

homework for you~~ IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT

Lesson #1

Tips on how to cut!

For beginners, you could try running hard in one direction, plant hard and quickly change to the other direction. The other way is to make your defender turn their back from you.The simplest method is to run hard towards your opponent.And assuming that you can run faster towards than they could run backwards, the opponent would have no choice but to turn and follow you. Once the defender turns and looks at the other direction, you can continue to run or give a fake to get yourself open.

To turn quickly:

• keep your center of gravity low.
• take fewer but more powerful steps
• sprint and plant hard,change direction

Mistakes often made when doing cuts is when you never plant
your feet.However, when being poached you should not run to the poached area instead run further away from the defender and make yourself more threatening.

Team read this part 1st.Do not need to be now but 1st and i will post lesson 2# very soon.Any doubts on this part please feel free to comment on this post not on the tag board please.Do not be shy to ask.Everyone gets to learn from the questions you ask! Be generous! share your questions!

Late comers on Saturday will run extra rounds and i mean it. Sick of having to wait for everyone, those who dont come for training just cause they dont feel like or tired i suggest you quit ultimate. i dont care what you think of me but if you dont treat the team's training and ultimate with respect you dont have to come for anymore trainings. I repeat, do not take training for granted the more tired you are you should train even more because its the time where you improve most. Jordan
