since Loi has put up the results for various tournaments in great detail, i shan’t repeat what has been covered.
It has been a good tournament year, a Great one in fact as it’s the second time we won a Championship at club level.. the first championship was Div 2 League in 2005.. and in 2006 we are U-18 champion!
We took part in Penang Sixes which was held over a weekend in Dec. As Nordin mentioned, it is considered a big step for us.. the first time we compete in a tournament overseas as a club !
The Crescent carnival is a success and we saw a jump in the no. of participating teams. There were 25 teams that took part in the carnival. We hope to further increase the no. of teams to 30 – 35 for 2007.
These are our goals for the next 5 years
Within the next 5 years, we should..
1) win u-21 tournament
2) ranked top 4 in Premier League
3) have more players in the National team
Things to look forward to in 2007:
Melbourne trip
King’s Cup in Thailand or ISCI in Indonesia.
Let’s have a good start this tournament year. I know we are missing quite a handful of key players who have to play for their JC in the age group tournament, nevertheless, let’s play hard and do our best. In order to be able to do your utmost best, and do justice to the team, players need to come down for trg ok… we have trg at NTU pitch 7-10 pm tuesdays and thursdays. please try your best to come down.

1st time we won Victoria Country! September 27, 2006
Posted by loii in Events.add a comment
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..
under 15 tournament 2006 June 20, 2006

Under 15 tournament has just come to a close. Crescent was fortunate to be able to send 2 teams: Crescent A – the sec 3s and Crescent B – the C division.
I was in charge of Crescent B.. helping out sort of.. the girls really impressed us. it was a really unexpected surprise when the C girls qualified to play the semis.. in the qualifying rounds.. they played well against the other teams ; CSC, STC and even SRC..
the semi-finals saw the two Crescent teams playing against each other. even though the B team did not have their main players, and no reserves at all, they played well against their seniors.. there were ample attack from the juniors and they were impressive in fending off their much stronger and experienced seniors. the seniors held on to their pride when they scored a goal in the second half. the juniors showed a lot of potential. i think this tournament has achieved its purpose in preparing them for the coming ‘C’ division. oh!! one point worth mentioning.. Huijun was spectacular; saving numerous shots from the seniors.
Sadly, we missed the under-15 title due to absence of main players. we lost 1-0. a goal not worth remembering.
Great Work Girls!!

loving hockey too much September 28, 2005
Posted by loii in Uncategorized.add a comment
how much do you love the game? enough to put down your life for it?
the untimely death of a hockey umpire, Morgan is one of God’s reminder that life is too short, too precious, too unpredcitable. My condolences to his loved ones whom he left behind. He was one of the better umpires, a great role model to youths as a veteran, a family man. I’ve seen him around since i was 14 and starting out hockey. The few exchanges I had with him and his wife were enough to provide me with good lasting impression. With such bad reputation earned by older hockey players, he was one of the very few of his era who has a clean record. He’s truly one the very few role models left to emulate. He has my respects.
May God bless his soul.
Very good response for t shirts sales September 20, 2005
Posted by loii in Uncategorized.add a comment
GOood News!!! the response for our fund raising t shirt sales has been really really good.. in fact its above expectations… this is all thanks to the sec ones and sec 2s for helping to sell in quite large numbers.. we will be ordering another 300 pieces since the sec 4s, the JC students and most of the seniors have not collected any t shirts to sell.. i think we should be able to sell off the other 300 pieces.. once we have covered the cost price.. the rest of the t unsold t shirts can still be kept for year round sale.. so anyone who wants the t shirt at a later time can get it.. but of course the ideal would be to sell off everything during this period.
Cheers for now.. those who have the t shirts happy selling…!!! those who have not received the t shirts to sell … quik~~ think of people you can sell to… the new batch will come in 2 weeks!

old design
modified design
okay i have another point to bring up about the tshirt- so i was being a sales gerger and promoting the tshirt, one of my huggle (non-hockey folks) friend brought up a good point. she suggested to include our club name on the tshirt. well, personally, i think, to a certain extend, it’ll be more significant for people who buy our tshirt. and isnt it smth to be proud of for us as well? what do you people think??
but as i was told by siew leng yesterday, the tshirts have already been printed out and on their way to be delivered to nordin’s. so we can consider that for our next design alright! and i already have a few customers. am i a good sales gerger or what! hahhahaha
okay trng with the school girls tmr and fri morning at 8 at delta!
1 2 3 GET OUT!!!!
end of Div One August 23, 2005
Posted by loii in Uncategorized.add a comment
hey Crescent players…
the Div One season has come to an end. as i mentioned in my previous post.. the season is indeed a very short one for us.. however don’t fret.. actually we had a good tournament although we did not qualify for top 4 placing to move on to play the semi finals. this is our FIRST time playing in Div One.. so i think it is really a good exposure for all of us.. i think some of us at least if not all.. have gained some valuable lessons from the experience. i have also learnt some veluable lessons as an official through thsi ground testing. be assured that we will only improve from here and not stagnate or detriorate. players’ concern about the lack of preparation is being considered at the official level.. we are thinking through the preparation plans for next year’s league in terms of funding, pitches, jerseys, training tours etc. i do hope you can be patient with us as we are trying our best to tackle certain pressing issues. lastly, on behalf of the club i hope you gals and guys.. will continue to support the club and contribute in any way you can.
till we meet again…
have a wonderful off-season
