The finish Line


"We shall neither fail nor falter; we shall not weaken or tire...give us the tools and we will finish the job.” - Winston Churchill



There is gonna be a lot of 'I' in this blog lol.

I not blogged in a long time hectic schedule, tired, managing situation and I look back on that faithful April Sunday thinking what if I had not accept the responsibility to stand up and say "Ok, I will accept the nomination for VP"

When I reflect on that, I come up with a blank answer. I really do not know what I would have been doing. Maybe a different path.


When I walked away from the national federation bout 4 years ago not because of a technicality but people were more interested in safe guarding their own respective seat and worried bout changes for the improvement of hockey especially administration. When I presented working papers on budgets and admin budget and webpages it was as if a ticking bomb had landed and the who herd has ran away. No problem you don't like it fine by me coz you don't know what you losing.


National loss and stage gain...

My first meeting with my Deputy President we talked and talked idea, vision, philosophy and more importantly goals and objectives both short term and long term. We were in a way both new to Selangor Hockey we both just got elected.

We did not shy away from the current problems we faced the mountains we had climbed but since that fateful evening chat we HAVE NEVER looked back.

Today marks the finish line of 2009. Tournaments after tournaments completed. When I say completed I mean completed. Payments made, files recorded, assets recorded.


Today marks the 103rd game in the league, the finals the last game, the crowning achievement...

Well done Vadai & Team

Selangor Hockey League in the Malay Mail (web) TODAY!!!!


Three-horse race down to the wire

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009 06:01:00

KUALA LUMPUR: After almost two months of competition, the Division One of the Selangor Hockey League will see a race down to the wire when it concludes this weekend. All the top three teams - JLJ, RAMD, UiTM - have an equal chance of landing the title.

But the favourites at the moment are UiTM, who are in buoyant mood after puttting themselves in the driver's seat with a clinical 5-2 win over OLAK last week. The Technical Committee cleared OLAK player Nur Hrsikesa Murni to return to face UiTm but it was not enough to help the former champions keep up with the fiery title challengers.

With their latest loss, OLAK are out of the contention. UiTM can clinch the title if they do not drop points in the final two matches against Selangor Sikh & Selangor Polis. Should UiTM falter, then RAMD will need only a win against OLAK on Thursday night to steal the title away.

The quarterfinals will be played on Dec 8 & 9 and the semifinals on Dec 15 & 16, while the final is slated for Dec 20. Meanwhile, in the Division Two RAMD Juniors were crowned champions last weekend without even having to break a drop of sweat.

Their nearest nemesis, SIA, faltered as they fell to an unexpected defeat to Synergy to see their titles hopes go up in smoke and disappear right before their eyes.

SIA needed a win to keep up pressure on table toppers RAMD Juniors but they fell behind as early as the third minute as Synergy’s S. Kumaresan finished off a scintillating move to give Synergy the lead. SIA fought back but Synergy goalkeeper Muhammad Fareez Farid was in top form as he foiled every shot that looked a sure goal.

To rub salt to the wound, Synergy increased their lead in the 17th minute via a penalty corner converted by Ashvinderjeet Singh. SIA gave themselves some hope of salvaging something when they pulled one back through Abdul Rasyid Ridzwan ten minutes before half-time.

But instead, Synergy went into the interval 3-1 up with a penalty corner conversion by Manpreet Singh in the 33rd minute. Ironically, it was the birthday boy Kumaresan who killed off the game when he grabbed his brace by hammering the fourth goal in the dying minutes to put the result beyond doubt.
