The Birth of First Batch T-Shirts

Today Shijin received the first batch of T-shirts. And Thank you Wei Qun, who took the big red bag of T-shirts all the way from his school TP, to my class. From Tampines to Serangoon and so heavy somemore.... *Clap Clap*

The Shirt somemore in Black Fit my blog. *haha*

This T-shirt does not come easy. With so much comments and so much problems faced. Effort and money threw in. The results is *hee* overwhelming, not enough for everyone.

However, I still worry sir's "stage". If he say no to the T-shirt. I dun think anyone can wear for training or in front of him. Hopefully does not receive negative feedback from him. Another person will be Mrs Tay (Mark's Mum), she mentioned that the shirt has no meaning. =.=" dotz....

Coming back to the same thing, people who did not put in effort normally has the most things to say. (or maybe, according to Mark, her mum a bit kanna psycho by sir, which makes her commented like this)

Let's Pray Hard on Monday's Training.

Learning to be Appreciative....

Today, after training at Pasir Ris Park, we went to Mac in White Sand. I then got the players who have not paid the T-shirt (Design By Shi Jin) to pay up. This is when I was asked how the T-shirt will look like. I received negative feedback. They were the 3rd group of people who bad mouth the T-Shirt.

So, in order not to disappoint them, I sms Shi Jin to ask her if the T-shirt can modify the design a bit. However, after checking, she mention that cannot be change as it's already printed. She wanted to absorb the 50pcs, which then I turn her down. Crazy gal =.="

I really appreciate her design whether it's nice or not. Out of 500 plus members only she stands out to design the T-shirts and find supplier to help us print (which I need to give credits to her), and now what she got was full of disagreement. Kaoz.... people must really know how tough it was to design such T-shirts and the powerful phase that she've chosen.

Thank You Choo Shi Jin Jo-an. =)

During the chit-chat in Mac, we did also talked about the new "club name". Alan wanted it to be "Sabertooth Martial Arts Club" [SMAC]. And I even agreed to design the logo. Like Shi Jin's case, the design received a lot of comments, Some are good but most are bad. Lol.... If people only talk but no action, haiz.... must well dun talk right? hahaha

2nd Training at Pasir Ris Park

Today, again Alan train us in Pasir Ris Park. Today, Wei Qun(BHCC) and Lixian(PCC), who could not make it last week, came this week. And Gorge (PCC) who had to work this morning still afford to turn up to apologise to Alan. He wanted to watch the training, but was turn down by Alan.

Today, I was not on form, I did not have enough sleep from Sat and dun feel like training this morning. Ha drag myself there de, so that the players have more motivation. (Coach who did not take part join in training with them). Ha Ha Some will say I extra la. But to me, coach will know their players very well if they undergo the same trainings, their progress and their standard can be monitored more closely. But today, because of my low performance, I got injured during sparring. Not stamina is one thing, never do much kicks, and left thigh kanna knee jab by Li Xian (accidentally) during round 3. Although it's a foul, but I do not blame him for that.

After the training, as usual, we went for breakfast at Mac, just that today's Mac was White Sands Mac and not Elias Mall de.

The Pasir Ris Park Training

03/08/2008 was a good experience for me after so long of "empty" trainings in Braddell Heights CC as well as Punggol CC.

Yesterday was a fine Sunday, and Alan made the players who will be taking part in the coming national tournament to wake up early in the morning and undergo tournament style of training, the training started at 8am till 10am. Location: Pasir Rs Mrt Ended in: Pasir Ris Park.

Me of course cannot miss such a great training. I joined in as "KPO" haha. First Alan made them run from Pasir Ris Mrt to Pasir Ris Park wearing with padding on and guards on; and 2 padding each. Of course invited lots of unnecessary notice from outsider.

Then in the park we did kickings and our shouting actually scared a few ponys (we were training near the pasir ris park stables) and we were warned. But our spirits still very good, we proceed with kicking with min. shouting and ended with sparring.

During the sparring session, I was put to spar Jia Hao in first round. I've kicked Jia Hao on his head once which made him a bit disappointed (I can tell). Anyway I felt a bit bad but still I wanted him to learn. Anyway overall, I think it's a good training both for me and the players. Hope next week there will be more attending. =)
