New Blood to drive the New Team.

The latest training, 27 January 2007 has been hit by schools having replacement classes for the Chinese New Year Holidays. However, the encouraging news is, we have a few new faces in the team.

For the girls, the attendance has been maintained at 5 people. We have a new face, Mei Ling from the Prime Timers. She seems to be enjoying the game though its her first time playing floorball. The girls had a nice time training together. The focus this week for the girls are their shots. The girls are showing improvement in their shots from the previous week. Well at least, on the average, the balls are beginning to fly rather than a grounder. Keep it up girls !!!

The girls training is still at a survival stage. With only an average of 5 people in these 2 weeks, we need to bring in more people. "Right now, we've gotta press on. The vision is to create a strong girls team. I have faith that our philosophy will work well in the long run. We must be long sighted and not look at the surface. I believe one day the girls will catch the vision." says coach Jason.

As for the guys, we have 2 new faces from Penang Free School, Hean Sun and Cason Chong. We also have another new visitor from St Xaviers, Lingeswaran. Lingeswaran didn't join us in training but decided to watch us from the sidelines to see what floorball is all about. Finally he expressed his interest in joining the team.

For the boys this week, the focus is on fakes. According to coach Jason, " The boy's team still needs to be tighten before they are ready for the tournament in 21 April. A lot of our players have been out of touch from floorball. They need get their bodies back in shape and fine tune their skills before they can challenge the other teams."

"We are now back to basics, rebuilding the floorball team from the scratch. I believe a lot of new faces will pop up in the Penang Floorball scene. This will be interesting" says coach Jason.

Hean Sun, the newbie said that "floorball is exciting and fun. Yet EXHAUSTING." That is expected from the Frontliners Floorball Club. Lets hope to see more youngsters taking up floorball in times to come.
