Training 211109: Of V Passes, Triangles and Parallels

Surprised?

yes.. FFC's blog has finally been updated after being on hiatus for a month.

And you'll only know what the title means if you came for training. So, come for training!

Like Coach Jason, most of the Saints and Salvation Army boys were missing in action this week.
Soooo...we welcome back...(it's a time like this where a club photographer would be much appreciated)

Coach Kuan Yang and his (lack of) 'come on la guys!' yells.
(there were lots of yells just none which said 'come on la guys")

Training started off with V pass (or V-pass?) with those in attendance lazily dragging their feet to the middle of the court and were suddenly brought to life with coach's yelling.

Frontliners had two newcomers this week in the form of potential goalkeepers,
Parvin Raj and Omprekash from Saints.

Omprekash showed good promise as a goalkeeper eventhough he had no equipment whatsoever.

Su Rong, sporting a new hair cut, was fashionably late.

Coach Kuan Yang got more into the tactical side of the game by trying to get the idea of the V pass into players' heads, which explains why all the drills were based on the first thing we learnt that day.
The drills were very different from the usual warm-up drills we've been doing for weeks. No snakes, nor ones originating from Japan.

Instead, there was one that went on for what seemed like forever. 3-on-2.
5 push ups for missed passes and 2 push ups for something to do with shots.
And a triangle must be existent at all times.

Kuan Yang resorted to using the multi-coloured balls to use as pointers for his lectures after each round when his old (or maybe just cheap) marker ran out of ink after one use.

Nick and Jeffery dropped by for a visit and ended up joining in during game time.

Compared to the previous week, this week only saw one hour of game time. Coach hoped the better players would at least put in elements of the V-pass into their game.
You gotta ask him if they did.

Coach Jason showed up right at the end and delivered a short, but meaningful (sounds corny, doesn't it?) message.

"Keep floorballing"

HOT core training. 21 Oct 2009

That simply explain the weather for that day especially the shade-less basketball court. However, that doesnt seems to tire out the Saintz but fire up their passion for floorball even more! With 20 Floorballer, we started off jogging around the street soccer court and Coach Jason then led the team into warm up himself.



Warming up session

Coach Jason then demonstrate the 'team work and physical' drill which is to carry their teammate across the court.

The defender's drill 2-on-1 come up next.


Defenders line


attacker's line


Captain Mikey guarding the post



After afew more drills, the Coach declare its GAME TIME.
Teams were split. Junior aside, Senior the other side.


THis time, the senior gets to play in a much wider plane.
2 Basketball court. one cone at the end of both side.
and YES.
the cone is the 'goal post'
Coach Jason stressed on playing with our senses and get into the game.
not just playing for the sake of playing


time reali flies when we just started to get into the game.
we wrap up the day with one last match for both Senior and Junior

the casualty

Coach Jason debriefing the players.
the Management then took over and reminded them to study for their finals.
Good result will lead to more floorball.
just before the training ends,
Jason promoted on the Big-E camp and also promised the players a treat for OUR first victory as a school

Newly IMPROVED training... konon




Sms to all Frontliners... "NEWLY IMPROVED TRAINING .... GUARANTEED INTENSITY AND EXTENDED MATCH TIME"...

sounded catchy...

Perhaps the catchy part was the extended game play...

So... HOW did we fare???



Suddenly SO MANY PPL in training... 30+ people in the court. INTENSITY... both coaches Kuan Yang(head coach) and Jason(the other coach/manager) had some intensed moments... headaches...

"too little players also SUSAH..."

"too MANY players also SUSAH..."

Haih... tat was the cry of head coach Kuan Yang(sekolah cina... :P)

Extended match time? was it really extended? Of course... well... just slightly more than the previous week... but player being players... always complain... PLAY NOT ENOUGH... right?


Complain complain paling pandai... kekeke... Well... Relak ah...

Management's gonna come out with even more innovative training package to cater for all your needs...

BE EXCITED... BE VERY EXCITED... BE EXTREMELY EXCITED kerana

Our philosophy has always been... "Ada Idea Baru"

See you in training :)

Another Army In The House

For many of those who came for training this week, it probably was the first time stepping foot on PBSM's next-door neighbors, St. John.

Oh, yes, all of them do pass by the pink-and-white building every week, on their way to PBSM, but the most they give would be a sparing glance at the young St. John's'es who seem to forever march.

Well, here's a big note.. St. John's is way more canggih than PBSM! They even have a reception area, with a password-key box beside the door.. fu-yoh!

The court, however, was small when compared to PBSM's; miniscule when compared to Dalat's; and.. non-existent when compared to Balik Pulau's.

Small as it was, though, it sure was better than playing under the hot, hot sun at Taman Gelugor's basketball court. So it was good.

The first drill after warm-up was a leg-exercising one. There was a puddle of very dirty water at one spot on the court, and the players were all told to walk, dance, and shuffle over it to spread the water.

That done, Coach Kuan Yang took a leaf out of Coach Jason's book and actually did a fun drill.

At one end of the court, he placed two chairs at opposite sides, and at the other end, he placed a stack of dustbins (PBSM and St. John's seem to get their dustbins from the same shop) in the middle.

Standing at one end, a player had to pass the ball between the legs of the chair, run and pick it up, then dribble around said chair. The player then had to pass the ball and hit the dustbins, and again, run, pick up and dribble around. Finally, the player had to repeat this procedure for the final chair, and the drill would be over.

After a few rounds, Coach divided the players into two groups and made the drill a friendly competition. A ball between the legs of the chairs gets one point; so does hitting the dustbins. The team with the most points win and get to determine the losers' punishment.

The chair legs seemed to have suddenly gained magnetic powers, drawing the ball to them but not between them.

Su Rong's team ran out winners, and he happily doled out the punishment: that the other team would have to run three rounds round the whole place.

Not inside, not just outside, but the whole place; including the houses.

Obviously, Coach stepped in and spoiled the fun, saying running inside would do. Thus the losing team had to run 10 rounds inside, and the winning team had to set up the goalposts.

At that moment, in came fifteen or so males, ranging from the tiny to the muscle-packed to the.. well-aged. These, ladies and gentlemen, were the boys from Salvation Army!

So whatever plans to torture the players by Coach had to be scrapped. Instead, almost immediately, it was time for a match.




The SA boys definitely were no pushovers.

At the end of training, a few announcements were made, and the players were dismissed.
