Sarawak Squash Closed - Kuching Leg 2008

I am proud to announce that an overweight player managed to secure 3rd placing in this friendly event for Men under 40 instead of a competitive nature as frankly I considered the event has only give a small light to the success of its objective in drawing interest of casual players especially those above aged 30 years old.

The feat was achieved after winning my opening match and then lose out to eventual Champion before winning the crucial 3rd placing match against my usual playing partner. For sure, the mood and situation is totally different when we are playing in competitive mode as compared to usual relax sweating games.

The Champion is a 20 years chap, ex-state player and the 2nd position is a coach aged 19 years old. With our aged running near to duplication as compared to them, it is a consolation for this achievement. hehehe...

In total only 10 players were in this event, showing the level of interest of what the organiser intended to promote. However, it was a totally different scenario for kids where overwhelming participation was registered. Our usual court at the club turn to a bazaar fair on the competition days.

For sure, I am looking forward for more of such events in near future as to continue to promote healthy living, friendship and fellowship of new mates as we progress in life. The next stop is in Miri, 31 Oct -2nd Nov 2008....
