It's the final week,from where i was,a Floorball noob,i am now actually able to play a competition standard game,well i didnt really achieve my goal of getting into the team YET,but at least i made the reserves,i think if i went for the training i missed last week,i would have stood a better chance to get in...but hey,i think i still have time to make the team,they have to put me in eventually.Hahaha,Overall i'm glad,and i know deep within,i could improve a whole lot more,which means IT DOESNT END HERE!!!!

Yeah,this week i felt bad for not going for training for so long,but i must say,i'm holding the floorball stick everyday,trying to perfect my dribbling skills,i learn a few more techniques from seniors on how to place the stick according to where the ball is....and i had developed myself to learn tricks,i got into the habit,yeah...my seniors say that's a

good start,well this one is when the ball goes under both legs,from the back and comes out from the front,i hope the pic helps in the description----> (pic)....



AnD THE MATCH WAS AWESOME,OUR STAND APPEAR ON THE

NEWS PAPER,GO CHECK IT OUT 28TH JULY!!!!! even if it was small,was worth every drop of sweat, and and i think Alonso saw our sign..."ALONSO STAY"...find me!!! I'm in a white cap...

It was so fun,and the 5-0 defeat,was sweeettt!!! to see Torres,Babel,Benayoun,Kuy,Reira, Carrager,Agger,Johnson,Reina,and the unsung hero,XABI ALONSO,was just spectacular.WE sang You'll never walk alone by Gerry & The Pacemakers,my cousins and i teared..tears of joy,that no man would hold back....I'm simply awed by what i saw that sunday.Best sunday of

my life by far.------->"LIVERPOOL"

Training getting harder by the weeks,this week we had to do sprints,leg-lifts,and other conditioning excercises,my muscles were aching by the time i got home....but we still had fun cuz the last half an hour we were allowed to play,i'm starting to get the hang of the dribbling,it's something like soccer,but only with a stick,and we learnt a new rule this week,"HIGH STICK",its a foul because you can injure soemone when ur stick's blade is above one's waist.Well this aft today's training i was kinda disheartened ,because only 20 player will be selected in the school team,so may goal may not be achive,but my friends reminded me that,there's always another chance,i may not get into the team in time for my presentation,but if i work hard enough i stand a chance to...
CAN i acheive my ultimate goal in time?---> floorball!

COMMON TEST WEEK: well the eep paper was a killer....but i think still manageable.Once again floorball was sacrificed for studying,but i ain't complaining,cuz it was well worth it.metro and maths went really well,expected all questions.with nothing else to do,this week i shall try ma best at airhooking,i went down to my void deck to try it out,and this time the ball flew into my neighbours house....haha,was lucky that the owner was understanding enough to give the ball back..haha





but while trying to air-hook i learnt another trick,dunnoe what's it's called though,but i took pictures of the skill in four parts...here they are
haha,well it's a start for tricks,i learnt it on my own,so i'm happy with that =)

Wednesday

WE start off again by running three rounds around the floorball court,it's becoming routinous.But we being the younglings of the entire squad,we accidently changed a few things for the warm up.REAdY? Ok,I was standing right infront leadint the whole group of boys,I started galloping side ways so that i could anticipate when to stop and tie my shoe laces.Instead,everyone else started galloping sideways,then someone else started doing knee-to-butt,and the rest followed.We basically look like chimpanzees making fool out of ourselves during training,in the sports hall when other cca's were simultaneously going on,SO EMBARRASSING,but we had fun=)...




.right aft the run------------------------------>





This week we learnt how to 'chip' the ball in the air.One could simply do this by flicking your stick vertically when the ball is sitting on the stick's blade.It was hard for some of us to master it,then we got the hang of it...The following day i went down my block,practicing what i had learnt.I asked myself " if i could juggle and soccer


ball,could i juggle the flooball with my stick?"...I tried and WOah,i was able to juggle a maximum of three times.I now have learnt two skills in one week...COOL...well looking to improve =) that all for this week..cheers



aiming to buy this stick---------------------->

Monday

Well this week i did'nt go for floorball practice because i was catching up on my other goal.MY 3A's,so this week i did my metrology notes on chapter 1,2 and 3...and For EEP i did chapter one and two,well i would like to say Mr Chan does make us study on our own,i think it's good that he encourages us to learn on our own,BUT sir,when we cant find the answer,at least answer our question or give us clues that gives us a CLUE.With all being said, he's still my tutor and my utmost respect goes to him for trying,as for Personel development,some projects coming up and comm skills, two pending presentions,so going to start working on them,as for maths,it's looking like and A,I REALLY HOPE =)

hehe

Sunday

Finally this week we learn how to play the game.It's goes something like this....
Regular time shall be 3 periods of 20 minutes each, with two 10 minute intermissions at which the teams shall change sides. Exemption for shorter time, however no less than 2times 15 minutes, and/or intermissions may be given by the administrating authority.If the referees consider one side of the court to be better than the other, the teams shall change sides after half the third period, but this has to be decided before the match. If such a changing of sides takes place, play shall be resumed with a face off at the centre point.Also there's something they call a "LINE-CHANGE". This is where all 5 players from the team are substituted.Fresh new players = Fresh new play.This week we finally had a chance to play a full match.Washappy that i could assist three goals,simply elated.I wasn't able to take pictures of our very own NYP floorball team,but i have some pictures from the net.FLOORBALL =)

HEY!!! this week we learn how to make two more shots,one the drag-shot and the other the Slap-shot...

(Bottom two picz)
Slap shot
:Alot like passing,place the ball infront of you,a certain distance away from your feet.pull the stick back,and take a whack at the ball,the ball will fly,a sec after of contact with the stick


(Top 2 picz) Drag shot
:The first step is to ensure the ball is behind you and the ball was in-tack with the stick which should also be behind you
Then swing the stick forward while taking two to three steps front for more power in the shot

This week,we learnt hoe to pass,stop and one of the shooting method. Throughout the training we were paired in two-s. After training,i went to my friends place,to take pictures of what i have learnt.

(Top Left)
: This is stopping,in one step,we have to precdict where the contact point(center) of the ball to that stick,then we need to slide the stick backwards along the floor so that it comes to a stop gradually
(Top Right and Bottom)
:this is passing,
Step 1: place ball infront at a comfortable distance away from feet
Step 2: pull floorball stick behind,just enough power to pass.
step 3:swing the stick front,maintaining the stick's position near the ground.
