crescent hockey

yesterday’s win marks a milestone for our club, our team.. the Victoria Country College have been coming down to Singapore for training tour fro 6 years now… and we have played against them 3 times i believe.. they’re great opponent. Fast, fit aggressive.. the kind that makes your head swirl cos their game play is so fast.. we plyed them twice… on monday, and yesterday.. on monday we lost 4-0. they were good.. but i felt that we played well too but the scoreline wasn’t representative of how we played.. so on tuesday.. we played them again.. and more senior players turned up.. and we got a goal first.. through Farah Noh.. it was a fantastic reverse hit to the top left hand corner.. well beyond the reach of the goalkeeper. and it was definitely a reason to celebrate. the australians had a few hard stopping chances too.. but they were not able to convert.. and later on in the 2nd half.. Shanna deflected the ball to sound the board. that was all it took to see us winning 2-0 .. winning for the first time.. the australians claimed that in all the games they played in their training trip, they’ve never lost to anyone.. isn’t it great..? well.. i was really happy.. so ecstatic!! and another great news.. we’re going to Australia next June.. lots of fund raising to do.. but hope this happpens..
