Seniors' Farewell

On behalf of G12 Floorball Club,

I'd like to thank Coach Nicholes Ong for being the best coach ever!

Thank you for sticking with us through good times and through bad times.

You were there for us when we lost during Wave Challenge 2009.

You were also there for us when we won the friendly against Firebrands.

You attended every single one of our trainings even after you got into an accident and had a neck brace.

Coach, you're the BEST!

The Final Score

G12 Floorball Club 21-6 fireBRANDS Floorballers

Full match report to be up soon.

It's About Time!

We've got a friendly match against fireBRANDS Floorballers this Saturday.

Show them what you've got, G12!
It's all or nothing.

G12 ; The last one standing.
See it, fake it, take it!

The Countdown

With about 6 days in hand, G12 Sure Shots face their final training session this Wednesday before the much anticipated Friendly against Firebrands takes place this Saturday.

The author finds it hard to believe that this is really happening. What started out as a post-Wave Challenge congratulatory-'good game'-wall-to-wall post on Facebook to each other by Tania of Firebrands and Yvonne of G12; suggesting playing against each other's teams again has turned into an event, though minor, in the floorball world. Players from several floorball clubs in Penang are involved in this event.

Kuan Yang from Frontliners and Lin Ken from Innebandy! Co. - the official referees of the match
together with
Michael, also from Frontliners and Brandon from Ztec - the secretariats

I accepted the idea of the suggested friendly by Tania as I had promised the team during that eventful ride home from Balik Pulau Stadium that I will look out for tournaments or matches for G12 to participate in as I felt that it was sad if we only got to play ONE tournament in 2009. After consulting with our coach, Nick and the girls, G12 as a team officially accepted the Friendly planned by the two very random girls.

A few questions I find myself asking are..

Is G12 really ready?

Have I done my best in selecting the players to play in Sure Shots?

Can we handle it without depending too much on our injured coach, Nicholes?

But what happens if we lose?
Will that drown our spirits and possibly break us, knowing far well that we're still feeling beaten up since the Wave Challenge incident that took place in April?

Will we still give it our all, knowing in mind that most of the supporters and fans there will be rooting for the opposing team?






But most importantly..
Will we leave our insecurities behind and play well as a team?
Because to me, that's what matters.
Play together, win or lose together.

ONE TEAM.

Throwing Sand At Each Other Is NOT Cool!

ORGANIZER, ORGAN-ORGANIZER, I'M THE ORGANIZER,

OH ORGANIZER, OH I'M THE ORGANIZER BABY!

- sang to the tune of Womanizer by Britney Spears;

the song of the night.

So, the much awaited, much anticipated "not-even-close-to-a-surprise" farewell party we threw for Lara finally took place and by late night time, it ended. The partying hasn't, though. G12 will carry on the legacy of throwing SUPER FUN parties over the years to come. It's always fun to have a couple of girls who get high on just sparkling juice around, no? We'll all find some other way to keep partying together again. Anyone up for a party tomorrow night? How bout the day after that? Hey, there isn't a need for a reason to party! LOL.

The party started when Jo-Wyee, Oliver, Marianne and I arrived super late, with pizzas, sandwiches and all the other stuff, just to find that it was really dark by 7.45pm and we couldn't see all the others who were already there waiting for us. But soon I heard Lara laughing and I saw Linken's cap {not his head}; reflected by the moonlight {full moon, btw!}, I knew we were approaching the whole party crowd. We had some difficulties in starting a fire, but with that many guys around, they managed to successfully start our own lil bonfire! We started off by serving all those hungry mouths Dominoes pizza and sausages. After the guys ate, they gained enough energy to start running around the beach in circles trying to "attack" each other with.. sand, water, you name it. Some touchy touchy stuff happened too. Gross!

Soon after that, the guys needed a power-up, so we brought out the sausages. Oliver got excited when we told him we had marshmellows. Haha! So while all the others were busy nibbling on {burnt} marshmellows; Oliver, Marianne and I disappeared to Jo-Wyee's car to get Lara's presents out! G12 gave Lara a huge photo frame with all of our pics in it as a team :) After that, Lara blew her #13 candles on the chocolate cake and it was makan time.. yet again. I think by this time we got stuffed already. The guys seemed to have stopped eating and started running around the beach like mad men at.. 11pm! Boundless energy, they've got. After watching Wei Jin and Daniel throw Linken into the water {poor Linken}, it was time to go home. Don't we all wish the night never had to end?

To all the guys and girls from the various floorball clubs who attended the party,

Thank you guys for coming! It wouldn't have been fun without every single one of you who came. Thanks so much for making it an awesome farewell party for Lara. I bet we made her really happy :D And to the people who thanked me for organizing the party, thank Lara! I wouldn't be the organizer without her letting me plan this party for her.

With about 70 leftover tuna sandwiches Huey Yuen and I made, I think I'll count tuna sandwiches to sleep. Goodnight everyone! :)

Feeling hungover,

Von <3

2nd Farewell Party

Hey everyone! Von blogging on behalf of G12 here :)

We've successfully had our 1st Seniors' Farewell Party on Wednesday, 30th July 2008 at Seoul Garden, Gurney Plaza. Now, some of us from G12 have put in our time and effort into planning another farewell party. It's the much talked about, much awaited; G12's 2nd Farewell Party. As most of you may know, G12's team captain, Lara will be leaving us to pursue her tertiary studies at the Concord College in Shrewsbury, UK (in case you're wondering, Concord is within easy reach of both Manchester and Birmingham). Soooo, we decided to throw Lara a surprise party! BUT THEN.. The news got out because SOME people didn't hear me stressing on the word SURPRISE. And thus, now we're throwing Lara a not-so-surprise farewell party! But the element of the 'surprise' is still there, as Lara has no clue about the guest list or how the party's been planned!

Date : Friday, 12th December 2008
Time : 7pm (please be punctual!)
Venue : The beach @ Paradise Sandy Beach Resort, Tanjung Bungah
(that's the hotel next to Dalat International School)
And if you still can't find it, the address is

527 Jalan Tanjung Bungah, 11200 Penang.

We will be charging all guests a small sum of RM10 to cover for the food and other expenditures. Invited guests are free to bring any food items or presents for Lara. If you want to bring your friends along to the party, please inform me 2 days before (by Wednesday, 10th December).

If you have any questions regarding the party, feel free to call me at 0164668137.

We hope to see you guys there and we look forward to having a blast together!

Cheers,
Von :)
