well, went for our friendly hockey match against ACJC today at temasek polytechnic. was fresh and ready to go after a very good night's sleep. was feeling nervous and scared as it was my very first hockey match and i have no previous experience in hockey. the only experience i had was soccer. but its a totally different thing. my position is at right back. a defensive position. was not suppose to be a tiring role but today, due to a lack in communication and teamwork, i became the busiest player on the pitch, running up and down the flanks non stop. had to help cover the middle as well. super tiring. but it was nice to get ur hardwork acknowledged in the end as the team gave me a round of applause when the j2 senior commended on me. surprisingly, i do not feel all that tired. this shows that the old me is returning. lol not to brag, but i used to have imbal stamina which could last for hours and hours. but i seemed to lost it these recent yrs due to the lack of sporting activities. im now very happy as im regaining my stamina and im seriously looking forward to hockey games.
well tmr we'll be having another match at the same place and time and against the same opponents. hopefully we will be more of a challenge to them as we drew 1-1 with them in the first game but lost to them 3-0 in the second. not a very bad result i must say since there are many fresh new players such as myself in the team playing. but there is definitely alot more we can do and hopefully we will be able to progress well together as a team.
