Club's New Record

A new record for Frontliners Floorball Club with an attendance of 7 players due to school replacements and some went to KL for a tournament. The club also want to welcome back our long lost player, Kannan. With the number of players turn out, Coach Kuan Yang couldn’t do many things. He could only teach the players some basic skills.

During training, Coach Kuan Yang ordered the players to make passes with their partners. Khai, our goalkeeper transformed himself to be a player. Although he lacked of basic skills like ball controlling, he never gave up but having fun instead.

There were some drills made with turning around as well as spinning. “This drill will train you guys to bend your knees and speed,” said Coach Kuan Yang. After this drill, there was another drill (not really a drill la...) called ‘ball protection’ (without sticks). The player who has to protect the ball needs to prevent the opponent from kicking the ball away. All the players seem to having so much fun.

Around 10.00am, it was match time as everyone was waiting for. They could only play 3 on 4 as there were not enough people. The match was created with some new rules for the team who has 4 players. They need to pass the ball around with at least 5 passes before scoring a goal. After some time, another rule was created by Coach Kuan Yang mentioning that everyone in the team has to touch the ball at least once. Without any complains, the match was then continued.

At 11.00am, the training ended as the players had requested. Coach Kuan Yang announced about the upcoming competitions on September. He also commented about the training that the players are not energetic as before due to hot sun and used to play in indoors.
