Hi Iwan, regret to know this. So you will work in Indonesia in future? We still have return match to play. We have been preparing to play a better session. What a pity if Bishan team can't continue. I think Ah Hwa can lead it with some help from other players.
i will MIA for several months once my first child is out within the next few weeks! rest assured that the Bishan session will be revived eventually. alternatively, the rest of the Bishan gang can always "migrate" to CCK like what i've been doing lately.... as for Iwan's future plans, let us all hope that he succeeds in whatever he plans to do!!! so that he can come back and build a badminton hall for all of us to play FOC (ex-national/state players must pay, tho!)!
Yes, understood that you need to focus on the mother and baby for some time. Glad to know that Bishan team will resume its game sooner or later. If some of your teammates want to play games, just come over to join us. Haha... Good good. Hope all of us can be millionairs and afford to build a hall to play badmitnon for free. I bought one land in Qingdao a few years ago. It's big enough to build a big hall for a sport club, that's my dream. All our friends will play free games there. Haha...
that's why i invest in Toto diligently. free? does that include air tickets, food, lodging & entertainment too??? where do i sign up?!?!
Then you should pray me to be a millionair faster. So I can organize a free badminton tour to Qingdao plus beer and delicous seafood for our friends here. Haha...
Adios This is very sad indeed. I had a lot of fun playing and learning in this group. Great set of guys and I think Ivan did an excellent job in keeping the group together and active all these years. Hope to catch up with all of you again some time. Till then I am shifting to squash.
Wan, i guess this marks the end of a era.. hehe.. Although i was never a regular of your group , i must say your passion and love for the game is unsurpassed. you are one of the few members that really promote this game. take care and good luck dude.
Thanks you all I think we still can organize one return match for the CCK team? I'll arrange one in May or June and just call up some of our old players to play Oh yeah, Kishore, I think I'm going to need to have a long chat with you for some ideas when I come back from China hehehe
Hi Iwan & Hwa, I checked with our players, that a few can't attend on 2nd May, as 1st May is public holiday. It's another long weekend. So how about we have it in late June or July? Another reason is that we lost in last round, so we need to train harder and find out our best pairing. So far we don't have fix partners and we are doing internal tournament to get this done in these weeks, just started from last Sunday. Hope this can bring your team good challenge. Haha... Oh, just to add in last reason, Ah Hwa probably will be very busy in late April. Haha...
perfect! actually wanted to let u know that 2nd May our gang leader (Iwan) is not available and our rematch will have to be postponed. How about 9th May? aiyo!!! dont have to be so professional one la!! our group has not played together for quite awhile, most likely will be thrashed/humiliated in the rematch!!! :crying: most importantly, is to enjoy and have FUN!! And for this very reason, i might have to skip the rematch as the due date is early May. therefore, the rematch is tentatively set at 9-May @ Beatty Sec. we should be able to string together at least 6 to 7 pairs this time.
Ok, let's set to 9th May. Then I will change another friendly match to other date. Need help on courts booking?
or better still: your group can have 2 friendly matches on the same day!!!! power!!!! on a serious note, will buy your group a carton of 100-Plus if you can help book the courts on 9th May. will discuss the terms and conditions with you this Sunday.
i think 5pm courts are very popular, hence we shall try to avoid that time slot. either 2-5pm or 3-6pm should be fine. but we shall wait for our gang leader to confirm.
Ok then. Let's wait till Iwan's confirmation. I am not sure how tough the booking at the school is. Hope can get enough courts as expected.
Hey guys, go ahead booking the 9th of May courts, I will be back on the 4th. And yeah, we can get a can of 100 plus for everyone
Ok. We will go ahead to book the courts. Btw, if you want to play some games, you can join us at CCK on 6th May, 7-10pm.
Hi Iwan & Hwa, courts were booked at Beatty Sec Sch. 2-5pm, Court 2 & 3, 9th May, Sunday. Some extra courts were reserved in case your team can find more players. It is possible for our team to get up to 11 pairs.
