Por Kai Yann, 14(2007-present)

Floorballer at heart and by nature, Por Kai Yann was discovered by the coach, and soon he played floorball like he had been playing it for all his life. Cool and calm on the outside, not so much on the inside, he amazed Kuan Yang after some good play, when all he had was a simple three-hour lesson by the coach. His control is good and he knows where the goal is, but extra power and energy is lacking. The coach, whenever talking through a drill, makes him stand right in front, because this man here has a tiny problem with paying attention to his surroundings.
He played in all the tournaments this year (Youthwave- Team Genesis, POC, Dalat League) and improved throughout, though confessing to some shaky nerves in POC.

Verdict: Taking part in all three was a surprise as he hardly came for training. A minus point, looking at what he could have been, but facts and reality are what matters. Deal with it. (5/10)
Play of the year: With his level of play, constantly appearing to have practiced a whole lot more than he actually did.
Prediction for next season: This boy has so much potential, but the coach cannot drag him to training everytime there is one. He needs to wake up and start playing seriously, however oxymoronic that sounds, if he is to live up to his potential. Maybe not next year, but in the years to come, he will definitely be someone to watch out for.
