Sweet 16 January 2010.

[writeup for seniors training is supposed to go here. xP]

Free hit!

High-socked James tussling for the ball with Zeph.


And lastly, debrief =)


Now then, we shall proceed to fBFC's second training session:

GIRLS AND JUNIORS! =D

Attendance skyrocketed in comparison to last week's as the floorballers bounced back to where they belong - the court.

And fireBRANDS Floorball Club would like to officially welcome, Miss Number Nine *points to above photo*, Amelia Tan the tennis player (=

For this week though, there was a slight change..


Instead of the usual contact-lensed, wide-smiling, ever-friendly Coach Jason, this time we have..


..state player, Asics-wearer, Unihoc-wielder, put your hands together for STEVEN GERRARD Coach Gary Lee!


Training began at about 3:15p.m. with 6 people jogging around the court and stretching, but by 3:30p.m. the rest of the troop had arrived (pls do try to be earlier next time, thank you) and were all geared up and raring to go.

After warm-ups, it's _ _ _ _ _ _! (y'all should already know what goes in the blanks kan..)


A low-flying yellow floorball propels past keeper Joyce into the net.


Next up, what the whole training was really about...

...SHOTS! Wrist-shots more specifically.

Two variations of the same drill:
1. Dribble ball to net, control, and take a shot.
AND
2. Receive a pass, and do what you did in 1.

Under fBFC's very own..
..Mauricio Pellegrino Gary Lee!..

(the real Pellegrino - Liverpudian first-team coach. see any resemblence? hahaha.)

ANYWAYS, the players were taught the PROPER way of shooting.

While undergoing the drills, players were also taken aside for individual one-on-one personal training with Gary on how to shoot.

"okay you watch me.."

"..lu kua, lu kua.."

"PRESS!"

"see how i press here, then i release?"

"when the ball reaches my first leg.."

And after lots and lots of shooting, it was time for the long-awaited =)

the camera suddenly got spammed with photos of an x3m tycoon. (it's on SALE btw, refer to chatbox)


And unfortunately Coach Gary had to leave smilingly early.


But anyways.

Everyone was divided into three teams.

The teams were very aptly called Team One, Team Two and Team Three.

So it was like this: 1v3, 1v2, 2v3.

(i just felt the need to write more unnecessary facts, that's all.)

Okay photos!

Gerald: ivy.. pls pls.. let me have this ball..


Gerald the golfer retrieving the ball (flying hair and all) while Referee Indy steps away.

And Eulene trying to cangkul the ball away from oncoming threats while Ben Yeoh decides to take a sweep at her head. xP

So, at about 4:50p.m., it was time for a brief debrief before putting back the nets and stuff.

Girls & juniors, thank you to ALL who came, those who didn't pls come back, and everyone please DON'T BE LATE!

DIV 2 IS COMING!

Did you know that..?

As We Step Into 2010

Training started off with the guys. After weeks of fats accumulation in their tummies, they finally found their way back to the court and tried to burn it off.

As usual, snakes and '3 levels' drills were done to warm up their bodies and also to adjust themselves back into floorball mode. Keepers were replaced by benches as both of them were unable to attend due to personal reasons.

Well, as Division 2 is coming nearer and nearer, the coach was trying to form the lines and of course in order to do so you need to experiment. The forwards were grouped into 3s while the defenders were in pairs. The forwards got the chance to play together and at the same time develop their style of play. Hard to explain. Anyway, after all the experiments, the coach was quite satisfied and so we moved on to game.

This time, the forwards and the defenders were put in together to form the best lines. More than an hour of game did tire off many of them and so the training ended with a 'new year speech' by the manager himself as the girls and juniors marched into the court to start their training.

At 3 40, juniors and the girls started their training. i mean not really training as not many of them turned up so coach jason decided to just let them play for the whole training session. Many of them enjoyed it as weeks of 'floorball hunger' were put to an end.

Yeah not to be forgotten, two new potential players were seen holding the sticks too. Vincent aka png png or mr bombastic came for fireBRANDS training for the first time and Gerald aka monkey was back in penang after last seen appearing in training months ago. Keep coming for training and be ready for division 2.

till then, see you on saturday =)
