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.
