What about some Fashion?

Who says soccer girls do not have a sense of fashion? They sure do! Yesterday on the 2nd day of the school's Open House, some from the team took part in the brisk walk and you've never guessed, they had newly invented socks that could be used as scarfs! They sure was outstanding among the crowd of both old and young, with some of them also donning their retro sunglasses!

Colorful for the walk, indeed!

Tis is the Season

Indeed the blog has been on a hold for awhile...because the team has been away on a their first ever overseas trip to KL! Apologies for no updates as wireless was not present over there.

But on the positive note, all are back safe and sound and reached back Singapore at 3:30pm today after a good 4 days 3 nights at KL. There was good experiences, bad experiences and there was also good fun. But one thing is for sure is that the team would not want a 2nd experience of a bad and mad muddy soccer field! It sure did annoyed everyone who got badly mud-soaked and smelly perhaps.

The end of this trip also signals the end of this season and that's a wrap, no more trainings till the new year comes around!

Pictures from the trip would be up in the next post so check back this space!

POL-ITE 2008: Thus far

Very well, the POL-ITE games has begun and first up, Team Republic Women's Soccer team faced up against ITE. Not too bad for a start, as Yatie scored first to put the team ahead first before ITE could equalized. A very pretty goal that went over the keeper and into the net and Team Republic was up 1-0.

Last year, ITE put 11 goals past Team Republic and this year, the score was cut down drastically to just 5 goals! Also, the very first time that Team Republic has scored against ITE first. So full time and RP lost out 1-5.

2nd game, was against Singapore Polytechnic, the team that debuted in the POL-ITE in the same time as Team Republic did. In this game, Singapore Polytechnic was beaten 2 goals to nil with the courtesy of Yattie who once again, grabbed both goals! Also did we mention that there a pair of sisters who were against each other in the match? Yes, that is Dilys of Team Republic and Delia of Singapore Polytechnic! Sadly we do not have a picture of them clashing in action.

3rd game was against Ngee Ann Polytechnic who seemed to have strengthened team this year. They have a very tall striker who has scored 8 goals in all so far, with most of them coming from free kicks and corners! Female C.Ronaldo/David Beckham? After the final whistle, it was Ngee Ann Polytechnic who walked away as winners, putting 5 goals past Team Republic.

Team Republic will be up against their last and final opponent, Nanyang Polytechnic on the 24th Oct, come Friday, 6pm. Let's hope for the best and if the team wins Nanyang Polytechnic in this game, they will finish the competition 3rd!

Results from the other matches:
1) 14th Oct : SP 0 NP 8
2) 17th Oct: NYP 0 NP 8
3) 21st Oct: NYP 1 ITE 8

Some pictures from the matches:
