The Little Saviour

The common denominator in our team; the fear of high speed balls. For one girl it wasn't just a mere accident, she wanted it and went for it. While many cringe at the thought of being behind a caged-helmet one girl found it an achievement to touch the helmet more so to get to wear it. She wore it with such great passion. Behind the helmet, she ignored her fears and the fear of others.

"You have nothing to fear but fear itself" - Franklin D. Roosevelt.

She put on a brave front as she walked towards the goal and placed herself in between high speed shots and became the saving grace. She gave it her best. and she in return got her best. Trained by our very own Linken, she armored herself and trained. Persistently. Every week.

Practice is the key to perfection. But to become the one the team counts on isn't a light load to carry. She carries the responsibility of every other player. To be a goalie by choice is an achievement. And for her incredible indomitable spirit, she deserves this post. she deserves the song of praises by the rest of our team. Without her, there'd be no team.

ARLENE, KEEP IT UP.

Being in form 1, you've got great potential to be the best. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
