PIALA PUSINGAN PENGARAH YAYASAN SARAWAK 2012

"When the going gets tough, the tough gets going" goes the saying and that best described our Team K16 over the past 2 weekends.  We made life difficult for ourselves by losing 0-1 to Yayasan Dream Team in the opening match.  Then we beat Ocean Eagle Samarahan FC 3-0 before having to beat White Tiger FC 2-1 to earn the right to play in the semifinals.  We managed to go through to the final by beating Josephians FC 4-0 although it was a difficult match for a few of our players as they were studying at St Joseph's.  

In the final on Sunday (4 November - kickoff 4pm), we will be up against Yayasan All Star.  They are favourites to win the tournament as it is their tournament.  Furthermore, we have a few key players down with injuries making them doubtful for the match.  We may even have to play Felister as a striker!!  But then again, the players' spirits are high, their confidence pumped up after the win against White Tiger FC.  It is going to be hard work if we were to win this.  

BIAR LUPUT, ANANG CABUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE: BORNEO INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL CUP 2012

It has been quite a while since my last posting.  After the debacle in Kota Kinabalu, I did not dare post anything just in case I say the wrong things. But now I am able to do this as I believe I have analysed and rationalised through the whole situation.

We did not achieve our target of finishing among the top 2 due to 2 reasons - horrendous officiating and players fatigue.  For those who were with us in Kota Kinabalu, they saw how bad the officiating standard was.  Last year, the organiser had the services of a few Singaporean officials but this year, maybe for budgetary reasons, only Sabah officials were used.  Enough said on that. 

The second reason had to do with the number of tournaments our key players were involved in before going to Sabah.  Our players must learn how to prioritise the tournaments they want to play in so that they are able to tune their energy and mental level accordingly.  No player in this world can play and go all out in every match.  The body has its limits and it is high time the players learn how to respect their bodies; otherwise, they will get burnt out or worse still, permanent injuries will happen!!  Enough said on that.

Now we shift our focus towards Piala Yayasan Sarawak which will start on 20 October 2012.  Life goes on.
