Netball Match @ IAFG

Netball was 1 of the many sports that i involved during school times, be it primary or secondary school. Still remember how the coach shouted here and there while coaching us the rules and scolded us for the mistakes :P Well...good old days....

I started to play this game again since last year, thanks to the Inter Accounting Firm Games (a.k.a. IAFG). This year's involvement was my second. Our firm registered to join in this game, and the captain started to gather the employees in our firm who is interested to play. Well, i was super duper busy during the training period but i would think that, sports play an important role in our life too! Haha....

We had our training session at Kompleks Sukan Kampung Pandan twice a week for a consecutive 4 weeks. A complete netball team requires 7 players from each team, and we would need 14 players for each session. However, we always faced difficulty in getting the complete 14 players to play. Since the training session was at the sports complex, we managed to play with another group of working people who happened to have netball training at the same venue. We even played with a gang of sprinters (majority were guys!!!).....

Contrary to last year where we had a coach to monitor us (thanks Stacy!), this year we were all on our own! No idea on the exact rules and regulations, no coach on field meaning we may not take training seriously (hehe..) and so on.... But hey! Miracles happened this year! We managed to enter semi final of the netball match and it was totally out of our expectation! It's a historic moment for our firm....

Oh well, we lose to EY during the semis, but we had fun! Enjoyed the environment though, the spirit where we couldn't find during work time. I still got to go back work after the semis by the way...poor Mie....haha....

Netball again next year? Hmm...we shall see....
