Training. Playing. Winning.

People usually train before they play and people got to play before they can win. So basically training will be the first thing to do. Followed up by playing and lastly ends with winning. Which is the most important then? I feel that there is no most. All should be done with the best of our ability.

Training. Yes, some people might be able to play and then win without training but I feel training should still be conducted. Training is conducted not only to ensure victory towards a game or competition or anything. Training should be conducted to improve one's ability. Even if one is good enough to beat anyone he sees he should still strive to improve and the way to improve is training. Well, training for teams isn't only good for improving.

Another thing can be gained from it. Moral lessons, teamwork, better friendship and can't be left out a day filled with laughters. Well, I don't know if it's every training but this day the 4 Ixora soccerthon team, All Sparks team training has definitely have them all. Now, I'll tell the story of the hilarious training of the All Sparks team. I hope I don't get it wrong, I can't remember exactly what happened first. Here goes.

First it starts with the group up of the team. while Kah Ken was away and is yet to arrive, we decided to jog first. After 1 round around the field, Wesley changed direction and moved towards a big tree. Now, what was he trying to do? Answer, pee. Now, suddenly after running rounds with Thomas, the ball was kicked up and ended up stuck on a tree branch. We threw rocks and 2 more balls we brought(throw and kick to be exact). We tried so hard but no good results still. Suddenly, 1 smart fella ended up making another ball stuck. Now, we got 2 balls stuck and unable to get it down. The tree was to hard to climb.

Suddenly out of nowhere, Say Chong found a super long wood I think about 10 feet long. We lifted the wood aimed and poked up repeatedly. Finally we got both balls down. After long time of hard work and cooperation among the team, we managed to do it. Later, Kah Ken decided to commence our training but before that, he decided to do the same thing as Wesley at the same big tree. Being influenced by the two of them doing that, I myself felt like peeing so I went and do the same thing.

The training starts with a game of monkey. Nothing much to elaborate on that. Next is the suicides. We all did 10 and Say Chong did 5. Nothing much to elaborate on that as well. Now, after the suicides. After that, something magical happened. Kah Ken suddenly said he wants to eat ice-cream. We were all like what the hell. I mean, who the hell eats ice cream after warm up? Suddenly, after about 10 seconds ice cream seller's music was heard. We all looked towards the direction of the music and the uncle selling ice cream appeared. We shouted to him and in the end he stopped and we all bought ice cream and ate them.

After that we did stretching. In the halfway of stretching, suddenly Say Chong shouted. What happened? Leg cramp. We were all laughing like hell for this. After the stretching we played game. After the training when we were going back to out bench, Say Chong suddenly tripped on the ball and ended up in a cramp again. That's the end of the hilarious training of All Sparks. We were all laughing like hell during the whole training.

Lets go back to the main topic. Playing is very important. If the game is played like shit, even though we win it's not enough. The performance matters as much as winning. Winning of course is very important. So what should we have to win? That's right, confidence. We must always be confident. Right, so I'll end this post now,

End,
YU

ALL SPARKS! GO!
