Mekananth, 18(2006-present)

Happylegs. Mekananth is the fastest player in the club and also one of the cheerful-est, embarassing some of the Chinese with his knowledge of Hokkien. His pace is the main thing that sets him apart from the others. His shots would be well enough if he could hit the target more than he misses, but he constantly forgets that he has two perfectly usable hands. The coach got so fed up that he one day strapped Megan's other hand to the stick.
A natural attacker, he has a good sense of positioning but needs to work on his shot accuracy. As has been said so many times before, he is a solid player with just that little extra, showed when he played in all the tournaments this year (Youthwave- Team Exodus, POC, Dalat League).
He attended training on-and-off for the rest of the year.

Verdict: He improved, but would have improved even more if he had been consistently coming for training, although his ball control is much better now than at the beginning of the year. (6/10)
Play of the year: Very hard. Most likely his consistency, playing at the same level in each tournament.
Prediction for next season: He should continue to improve along with the club, if (big if) he starts to train and practice more.
