t-shirt update

the supplier has told me that to have everything gold on the back design will be very expensive as it's a special colour.

so it will be in white.

front design: it will also be in white.

name on sleeve will still be in gold.

i managed to squeeze the price to $22 coz polo is slightly more expensive.

they will deliver on Fri morning so that we can all wear to the match. :)

so pls bring $22 on Friday so that i can pay the lady.

cheers.

Well done, boys!

Hey boys

Today is quite an emotional ride.

It's inevitable that sometimes we do feel we are being left out by friends.

Maybe we are too sensitive.

For our own good.

It would be beneficial to reflect upon our actions.

Am I too sensitive enough?

Or have I done anything wrong previously?

TEAMWORK is of utmost importance in sports.

Discipline and hardwork are no exception.

Caring for my team mates and support each other in terms of difficult periods.

We work together for the good of the team.

To celebrate the joys together and improve together.

To feel happy for my friends who have good achievement.

And to strive each other for the best for improvement.

I am glad our team boys are a group of happy boys who have effortlessly bonded together.

Hope to see even better bonding maybe after few sessions of makan-ing together?

Buffet?

Zi cha?

Yum cha? (no lah, just kidding)

No worries, we will brave the storm together.

Seng Kang, all the way we go!!

:)

C'mon boys, even the ants know about teamwork. (Even ants also play basketball....)

We definitely can do it better!

Mdm Tan

(Note: On fri, ms sem will take down t-shirts size and i will get the FBT supplier to come down and show me samples.)

On a happier note, hey boys, Happy Chinese New Year!

Yeah!

Here's a dosage of morale booster!

Hi B boys!

Know some of you are quite discouraged while playing the match, but no matter what happens, tell yourself, you play for the team, the school! Put your unhappiness, your grievances aside.
Ultimately, the team is not the same without all of you. Every one has their own character, strengths and weaknesses. What matters is all of you put down your differences, come together as a team and play for the school.

In a team, we treat each other with respect, get to know each other better. Team bond if you have the time. I believe with team bonding, SKSS will go far in basketball. Motivate each other if any one is feeling down. Encourage one another, but also learn from the mistakes that you have done.

Meanwhile, Continue to work hard for the north zone champs, because YOU make a difference to the team.

The competition is coming and from today's training, i can see that most of you are not very ready in terms of fitness yet. Please go and practice yr free throw shoots daily. I will not be there to eye power u all, so do it at your own time. Captain/Vice Captain, please organise yourselves.

This Friday (10/1/07) , we have morning runs 2.4km at 650 a.m (you still need to gather at parade square at 720a.m). Friday runs will only last for a few (2,3) weeks before the tournament starts. So, please do not complain because the stamina is really important.

For SEC 2 students doing NYAA

Dear Sec 2's,



As I'm sure you are clueless on how to get about doing the NYAA, the below format could help you with the first draft.



NYAA report should consists of 4 components:



1) Service - CIP done in the year 2007

Describe what you you did during CIP and write down the experience that you have gained during CIP. Reflect on your trip to the homes or CIP that you have visited or done.


2) Adventure - Sec 2 Camp or whatever camps you have attended in the year 2007.

Write down your 3 day 2 night camp experience on a day by day basic. What activities you do eg. rafting, high rope element etcetc.

Describe what you have learnt during the camp, key learning points. Reflect on your camping experience. Feelings and thoughts are to be penned down in this journal.

3) Skills (from February - July; 6 months before the competition)

Write down the basketball skills that you have learned for this past 6 months Feb- July. Be more specific and detailed. For eg:

Feb - Game Strategy. Offensive game play. I was told to sprint as fast as possible when the centre catches the rebound....etcetc...

March - Practice on Free throw shooting because my free throw tends to be inaccurate. etcetc...

.
.
.
July- .....

Rough estimated number of words: 1 page - write the activities for 3 months

4) Physical Recreation - KEEP FIT

Write on how you keep fit for these 8 wks (For August - Sept) or choose (Jan - Feb) . DO NOT write on anything related to basketball training. Instead, write on other physical conditioning exercises that you have done. For eg:

Week 1 - I ran 2.4km for twice every week ...etcetc...

Week 2 - Did 2.4km twice and began visiting the gym. I worked out more on my upper muscles like biceps and triceps. etcetc....

OR

Week 1 - Did warm up for 10 minutes. Teacher taught us the basics of soccer passing where we are supposed to pass with the inside of the foot. We partnered up and ...etcetc...
This is only an example. Please be more detailed in what you write.



p/s: Please be more specific when you described the activity you have done, the learning points and reflections are very important elements of the report.

Thanks!

PS: Btw, what punggol cup?how come we havent heard of it?

Training will STOP for a week- 22nd Oct to 26th Oct

Hey boys,
Training will STOP during the week of 22nd Oct to 26 Oct because the O Levels will start on that week, during the afternoons.
So to minimise noise, most CCA will stop during that week.

After that week, it's school holidays already and i will schedule the training again.
From last year's experience, we will have
training in the morning IF there is NO 'O' Level PAPER that morning,
otherwise we have to schedule in the afternoons.

Okay, will inform u guys again.
Meanwhile, do try to view this website regularly and spread the info to your team friends.

Have a great holiday!

Relay messaging system

I am thinking of getting a relay messaging system for u guys.
How does it work?

There will be 8 boys in charge of a group of 5 boys. (Assuming total boys = 40)

Whenever there is info regarding training, me or ms sem will pass the message to the 8 boys and the 8 boys will inform their team members.

Because holidays are coming, and if there are any changes, we can reach out to the majority of the boys.

Will draft out the list and let u guys know!
:)

Training next week

Hey boys,
training will start on next THURS, 18th Oct, 3-5pm.
Cheers!

XL T-shirts HERE!!

Hey boys, the XL t-shirts are HERE!
