Quiet in the court!!!

Ssshhhh! The players need to practice! Huh? It's not a library, but that's what it seemed like during training this week. Other than some startling screams from Ms. Koay Yi Lin, the court was deafeningly silent.

Which was a little surprising, considering the attendance. Twelve people came for training, including Rooban from Innebandy! Co and someone new (Frontliners Floorball Club wants to officially welcome Parthiban to the club). Several faces were missing, including Mr. Jason.... Perhaps that's why training was as mentioned. His inspiration and weighty presence were sorely missed.

Training started with passing and some other basic drills, but even for the basic ones (let's not think about the more advanced ones) the players were already soullessly silent. Strolling from station to station and playing spiritless balls that a slight breeze would stop, anyone would not be guilty in thinking that a bunch of respectable centurions would do better.

Kuan Yang finally called for game time. Assigning the players to groups of three, Ms. Koay again turned up to be the top scorer, beating her previous record of three. Without doubt she was the best ladies player on the court, running tirelessly to pursue every ball and adding some sound effects to her actions. Felicia, who joined the club just for almost a month, deserves special mention as she has shown tremendous improvement since the last training.

After the game the players heaved a sigh of relief, but apparently Kuan Yang had something more. Ordering everyone to stand in a line, he waited patiently for the players to realize he wanted a horizontal line, then told them to run. After only one killer he ordered them to stop as anyone could see they were dead tired.

After training, newcomer Parthiban, on asked how he found floorball: "It is fun... fun," and agreed to come for more trainings.

End word? The court is NOT a library (not to put any negative impression, books are good for you), so buck up, you who call yourselves Frontliners!
