MAN OF THE MATCH
Nick
- Strengths: Fast Shots, Body position.
We have to take fast shots just as he had done and always be in the triangle where we can see both the ball and the man we are taking. Just remember the one second marking and the centre line rule for when the ball is on the other half of the court.

MATCH DEBRIEF - BY ZHAOHUI
1. Do not give away silly goals, todae we didn't do it as much as the coenvix game but too many scrambles took place in front of khairul today for comfort.

2. Learn the mentality in the third period so that we may kill off the game earlier against teams we shoudl be winning against. However, do not be complacent and commit mistakes such as dribbling too much and committing too much to fish the ball out.

3. Keep the pass up simple, down the boards against team which pressure us hard to take the pressure off the defenders.

4. Remember pointers brought up before the game, for example: cornvix is a lift and run team, the keeper cannot take low shots, the keeper cannot cover his angels well etc. this is so that we may exploit it in the game to our advantage.

5. Do not lose focus in the middle of the game, when called upon, try to focus for at least 2 mins, know what to do at all times, defenders focus on the passes down the line, centres focus on the positions of the forwards and defend the top d of our half, and forwards keep up the motion offence, offence is nothing if we just stay still.

6. And be prepared for early "christmases" when called upon to play different positions.

7. Body in all the time when in defence to cut out bouncing balls.

8. Sticks down when defending, following Victor's and Syaf's example.

And to end this on a good note, well guys it's halfway thru the season and lets just focus one game at a time, play it like it is our last and celebrate every goal as a team. Veera played well not to forget, Dy also contributed to the team's performances when called upon thus we do have strength in depth for our squad. Saints WHOOSH and lets win the next one peeps.

Enjoy the game and win,
Zhaohui
