Today bdiv seniors won New Town Sec 16-0.
Yeah it wasnt a really excititing game, but I liked New Town's Sec enthusiasm.
(Or what Ling Wei calls 'morale' or sth)
They were really alert (esp shortstop and center field), and were quite high throughout the game.
Coach said they lost all the games and wouldnt be going on to the next round, perhaps that's why they wanted to make the best out of this game.
They didnt win the match, but in my heart, they were the true winners.
There were three examples in the game that showed their excellent sportsmanship.
The first one was before one of the New Town batters started batting, she gave Jocelyn (the catcher, and also our bdiv capt) TWO high-fives.
Not one, ppl, but two.
She looks so nice :D
The second example really touched me.
It was the end of the game, and they knew they had lost.
That, however, didnt keep them from being enthu and all that.
It was Kelly's birthday (one of my sec 4 seniors), and we were singing 'Happy Birthday' to her.
Then when we finished, they too started singing the Happy birthday song to Kelly.
And they cheered really loudly for her. (:
Almost made me cry. (Yes I am very easily moved I know.)
The third example was when they were leaving the school.
I think if it's other schools they wouldnt bother to say bye to us or anything.
But yes, they DID.
And very cheerfully.
Knowing that they lost to us by 16 runs, that really showed their nice-ness. And sportsmanship.
Oh man such high morale.
They weren't actually a bad team, they showed quite a lot of potential.
Esp shortstop, her throws are really good :)
And the pitcher's quite consistent, although she could do with a bit more strength and speed.
And catcher you must really buck up.
No offence though but you're a really impt role in this game.
If you don't improve the team will really die D:
First base ah, learn to catch shortstop's balls.
And center field good running :D
Yeah to sum it all up, I enjoyed today's match. Made me learn a lot of things.
And if any New town softballers see this, I must say:
Great sportsmanship you guys have, don't give up in this game just cos you didnt win.
Try harder next time!! You all will go into the finals some day if you train hard!! :D
Heh.
And thanks for all the things you taught us. You guys showed us what real athletes are.
