Conducted touch rugby clinic today -
Initially, the turn out was kind of pathetic, okay make that really pathetic. It was like Yanyi, Val, Jed, Jon (John?) and I were just like sitting around doing nothing. Plus it was really hot. So I told the other touch girls that they could go off already since the turn out was so meagre. Only Carol came. Then later, Eleanor joined us. Yanyi, Val and I went to the canteen to ask people to come for the clinic. We were quite successful. Yep so when we got back to the field, there were so many guys.
So we split ourselves up into two groups. First time playing with the ruggers. They're damn fast - and their passes are super hard that I kept dropping the ball. Or the ball bounced off me. :X Chee Meng was teaching Carol & Eleanor touch stuff. & I didn't help. OPPS. I bet now he thinks I'm some slacker person. Oh wells. After Chee Meng sort of 'coached' them, I brought Carol & Eleanor to the other half of the field - Val, Karwei, Yanyi, Carol, El & I had a 3 on 3. Carol and El are quite agile and I think they picked up the game rather fast. Plus, Carol's good at running into space and her passes are top notch! Lol. Later on, Sherwin and Shaun (Or is it Shawn?) joined us for a 4 on 4. WOW. SHAUN IS AMAZING, I tell you! He's SUPER FAST - His side-stepping is AWESOME. He's FRIENDLY. He's NICE. But kinda weird. But yeah, he's JUST GREAT. Haha, honestly, I'm quite inspired by him - after seeing all those COOL moves and sidestepping he did. WOW WHEE. Yeah then more people joined us. LIKE A LOT. James, Danny, Isaac, Chee Meng and some other guys whose names I can't really remember. Then more touch ruggies came down too after their H3 lessons. (: So in the end there was a whole load of people playing touch on the field. But it was really really enjoyable and great fun. I truly enjoyed myself. Haha, playing w guys is really fun - especially that bunch of guys, who are mostly from water polo. Plus, the touch girls can work on our defence cos the guys are REALLLLY pro at side stepping and snaking thru the gaps.
And oh yes, I did two interceptions during the games! (: But really, going out for an interception is a huge risk unless you're really sure you can catch the ball and outrun the opponents. Cos if you drop the ball after making the interception, the opponents get another 6 touches. Worse still is when you go up to intercept but MISSED, hence leaving a HUGE gap for the opponent to side step & blast through. Well that kinda happened to me a lot during the games with the guys just now.
Well, truly, I'm very impressed by the guys. Really. Danny's damn fast. Super snaky like Sabu. LOL. Shaun's is goddamn pro - he must teach me all the side stepping tricks! James is HAHA actually quite good. His passes are nicely executed. (: Isaac is OMG damn fast! He played winger most of the time and I had to defend him - he kept burning me at the wings! Chee Meng communicates well. Plus he's v pro. (OH WELL, he is the rugby captain anyway.) REALLY I AM IMPRESSED. Haha I hope they'll never read this - if they do, their heads might get bloated with all that ego. ERPS. XD But seriously, guys are DAMN ON! I look forward to playing with them again! But next time, must get more touch girls so we can play GUYS vs GIRLS. :D
So the clinic was actually quite ok (: Thanks to all those who actually bothered to come :D
& PLAY. Oh and thanks to some of the guys for their compliments on my play -
It's always nice to hear compliments &&&
I'm really flattered but really, I still have ALOT to improve on. XD
ESPECIALLY MY PASSES AND SIDE STEPPING.
