Marching On.. + Training.. =)

Marching On.. (One Republic)

For those days we felt like a mistake,
Those times when love's what you hate,
Somehow, we keep marching on..

For those nights when I couldn't be there,
I've made it harder to know that you know,
That somehow, we'll keep moving on..

There's so many wars we fought,
There's so many things we're not,
But with what we have,
I promise you that,
We're marching on..

For all of the plans we'd made,
There isn't a flag I'd wave,
Don't care if we bend,
I'd sink us to swim,
We're marching on..

For those doubts that swirl all around us,
For those lives that tear at the seams,
We know, we're not what we've seen..
For this dance we'll move with each other,
There ain't no other step than one foot right in front of the other..

There's so many wars we fought,
There's so many things we're not,
But with what we have,
I promise you that,
We're marching on..

For all of the plans we'd made,
There isn't a flag I'd wave,
Don't care if we bend,
I'd sink us to swim,
We're marching on..

We'll have the days we break,
And we'll have the scars to prove it,
We'll have the bonds that we save,
But we'll have the heart not to lose it..

For all the times we've stopped,
For all of the things we're not,
We put one foot in front of the other,
We move like we ain't got no other,
We go when we go,
We're marching on..

There's so many wars we fought,
There's so many things we're not,
But with what we have,
I promise you that,
We're marching on..
We're marching on..

Yes Guys, we have to continue marching on, no matter what setbacks we encounter!
Let's get a good result with a great team performance this fri..
Begin to prepare yourselves for it!
Live it, Fight for it, and Love it!
=)
(sorry for the rant, just felt the correlation between the lyrics to what I felt last Thurs, if you're interested in acknowledging the song, it can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHvgAJe8bvM)
F.Y.I, It's Germany's Official World Cup song..

There'll be training on Wed (290910)..
7pm, Red, Main Field..
Duty Personnel, 630 yeah? Thanks.. =)

Heyy Guys, training on 27th Sept (Mon)..

Time: 7pm..
Attire: Blue..
Side field..

On another note, there was an issue with logistics for the past game, as such, the team will be split into 5 groups of 4.. The 4 ppl on duty that day will be in charge of ALL equipment and drinks..

Pre - Training/Match:

1) Collect Ice box with water..

2) Collect Bibs (2 colours)..

- 3) Collect Balls (Balls were stored at the cage in SH1 previously, to obtain balls and check them, pump if necessary).. All 20 balls for Men Football will be stored at the lower field from today onwards.. Pls msg me or Feroz if you don't know the code.

4) Any other logistics..

Post Training/Match:

1) Ice box with water.. (The ice box was left out in the gallery on Fri)..

2) Bibs.. (Dump into the laundry basket)..

3) Balls (Balls were stored at the cage in SH1 previously, to return back to cage but the balls were left outside Darren's office last night again cluttering up the place. All 20 balls for Men Football will be stored at the lower field store from today onwards. Collection and returning of the balls will be at that store and not from the office anymore. Bring the balls to office if there is a need to pump the balls.

- The Men’s team will have to account for the 20 balls, after the game yesterday, along with the ice box. The responsibility is on the team to ensure the balls are returned. Please note each ball cost up to $70.00, any missing balls, the team will have to bear the cost to be fair.

Duty Personnel, pls reach by 630 to assist in the logistics (if you are not able to make it by that time, it's YOUR responsibility to get a replacement on YOUR own accord)..

The groupings are as such:

27th Sept: Khai, Jabbar, Bull, Umar..

29th Sept: Khyrul, Nelson, Farhan, Calvin..

1st Oct: Peng, Boon, Lakesh, Titi..

3rd Oct: Shahril, Jason, Fulin, Kok..

5th Oct: Aidil, Kenneth, Raj, Juffri..

Thanks! See you guys on Mon..

SUNIG GAME 1(postponed!!!!)

NTU vs SIM
KO @ 7.30 pm. Be there by 6.30.
Bring PLAIN BLACK SHORTS and BLUE TRG TOP and MATRIC CARD. Jersey and socks will be provided.

4 months of preparation culminates with a tough opening fixture with SIM. No such thing as favourites on paper where the list of the past winners will illustrate:

2007: NTU
2008: SIM
2009: SMU
2010: ???

We must believe we can win it. The only way to win tomorrow is to play the game of our lives. The only way to win is to play as if tomorrow will be our last football game. The only way to win is to play together as a team with one heart. If we can do that, the result will take care of itself.

Pre-Game Preparations

1. Begin preparation the evening before the game. Eat a hearty meal consisting of low fats and high carbohydrates such as pasta, rice and lean meat.

2. Rest your body. Get a complete night's sleep on the evening before the game.

3.Give your body energy by eating a high-carbohydrate game-day meal. Eat this pre-game meal no later than three to four hours prior to game time to ensure that the food is absorbed into your system and that it is digested.

4. Hydrate your body. Drink water and sports drinks throughout the day to ward off any complications due to dehydration.

5. Snack on a banana, sports bar or apple an hour before the game to get an energy boost.

6. Mentally prepare yourself for the game. Visualize your actions and how you will handle yourself in game situations. Know the opposing team's strengths and weaknesses. Be confident and never be intimidated by the other team's win/loss record.

Training on 20th..

Heyy Guys, training tml.. Blue.. 7pm.. Encouraged to come early to kick around!

NTU vs NP

NTU vs NP

KO @ 7.30 pm. Be there latest by 6.45 pm.
Bring both Blue and Red Issued Tops with black shorts and socks.

Good performance and good result yesterday. We must keep up the good performance and now aim for consistency in our performance. For those who did not get to play or played very few minutes yesterday, my sincere apologies, but rest assured you will get a chance to prove your worth tomorrow. Since it's a Friday, i urge all of you to come early, get ready early and kick around before the match so that we are better prepared for the match.

This match is now even more important than our SRC friendly because any bad performance will render our good result yesterday as luck and will be quickly forgotten and will place us in a less than ideal position just 5 days before our opening match. Lets together deal with the pressure and get a result!

Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.

NTU vs SRC

NTU vs SRC

KO @ 7.30 pm. Be there latest by 6.45 pm.
Bring both Blue and Red Issued Tops with black shorts and socks.

This friendly is equally important as our opening SUNIG Fixture.No doubt SRC are favourites being a team comprising of ex-S League stars, but if newly promoted Hercules can beat the mighty millionaires of Barcelona at Nou Camp, then NTU beating SRC isn't that far fetched after all, isn't it? If it can happen at the highest level, who is to say it is not possible at the lower levels. Winning a game requires more than just big names, its requires teamwork, determination and hunger. Do we have it? If we do, it's high time we showcase it tomorrow. So peeps, Let's work hard, perform well and get a result. Thanks and See ya!
