MANCHESTER UNITED PREMIER CUP 2011

Our Team K15 won the Fairplay Award at the recent MUPC 2011. Although we started off strongly in the group stages, we lost in the quarter-final against SMK Gedong. It was a heart-breaking loss to all our coaches because we did not play to our potential like we did in the preliminary rounds where we beat SMK Batu Lintang and Saberkas Kudei by 3-0 margins and in Round 2 where we defeated SMK Lake (from Bau) by penalty kicks.

All of us were, and still are, dumbfounded as to what went wrong (look at the coaches' faces in the photo!!) . To be honest, we were all so confident that we would reach final. Players were not playing to instructions, players were ball-watching, players were not communicating, players were not confident on the ball, there were no crosses into the box, there were no shots on goal, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc.. It was a game we lost and not a game that SMK Gedong won. We handed it to them on a silver platter.

What good is it if we were only primed to win Fairplay awards, right??

LIGA BOLASEPAK SAMARAHAN 2011

Our Team K2015 secured their first point of the tournament by holding Khatulistiwa FC 3-3 in last week's fixture. Although still rooted at the bottom of the table, gaining this 1 point is a big step towards achieving our Project 2015 objective. Never ever forget that the average age of our players is 15 years of age!!

Next match will be against Johan FC this Saturday (14 May 2011) at Stadium Mini Samarahan.

LIGA BOLASEPAK SAMARAHAN 2011

Our Team K2015 lost to Sokanjaya FC 2-5 last weekend which keep our team rooted at the bottom of the standings. What was disappointing was the fact that 6 of our 1st 11 players did not bother to show up for the match without giving any reason whatsoever. We could have won the match if we had fielded our strongest team. Not an excuse for losing because at the end of the day, our opponents were years ahead of our U15 players in terms of playing experience. Despite that, we led them twice during the match!!

The absence of some players have forced Kickalob to take drastic action against these players by dropping them, not only from the team but kick them out of Kickalob totally. Their action tantamounts to gross indiscipline and they placed self-interests above that of our Academy which is a no-no!!

Next match will be this Saturday against Khatulistiwa (2nd in the standings at the moment) at Stadium Mini Samarahan.
