Mission Food Beach Netball 2015
Good morning angel, it had been a week and im still having my post netball syndrome. Caught up with the secondary netball girls on last Sunday and thanks to Stella organising, we were back to our favourite court for some leisure match.
It was all started when Stella asked me whether I am interested to join this beach netball which was held at Sentosa. Having the thoughts of not playing for netball for years, I hesitated but in the end I agreed to her invitation because I want to get the feel back of touching the "balls". We tried to get more people as the rules and regulation stated that they need at least 6 players in order for the match to play well. Our team was finally formed after calling in Wendy, Kailing, Shu Mei and Brenda. We named ourselves #blankspace.
Attending such event, we definitely have to pay for our registration fees. Approximately $60 for a team and we split among ourselves. We had a bag of Mission food snacks and our shirt to be worn on that day. There were several colours to choose from for each team but red was what we got and apparently it stands for HUAT and LUCK!
Reporting before 9am was a tough and tedious one having to wake up early but we were the first few teams to start off the match according to their fixtures. First round was not a well-played as we haven't warm up ourselves well. We lost by 2 goals and subsequently won or had a tide with the rest of the team.
On one of the round, the deejay specifically played blank space from Taylor Swift for us after reporting our team. In the mid of the game, we danced along with the song and surprisingly, we won the match! HAHA
Unfortunately, after playing 7 rounds with different teams, our goal points differ and we didn't managed to get through the final rounds. We were not sad but feeling glad to gain such exposure. Our team was under woman social so it was a casually played with no competitive players around although we played rough at certain teams but it was alright as no causalities nor badly injury players.
We watched the rest of the mixed team nor competitive and we were impressed by their shooting style. One of the team player went in a good goal from a 3 pointer position. We were awed and gave our fully support to that team.
I was really excited to see them before the match, having to play netball with them again in the court, cheering and giving motivation words to them. I'm glad that I made a right choice to agree to join in the team. Although the weather was a killer, we had to go barefooted under the hot scorching sun, but the heat definitely bring in alot of joy in us. All the falling, splitting were paid off (:
Thanks ladies, hope this will be our yearly event and love you!
Here to end of my post. I was requested by one of the photographer to be an ambassador for mission food so I had to pose with this chips. Awkward much though when you gain different stares from the public. Convincing not? Your judgement.
Till then.
