Yet Another Slow Start

The Division One Penang Floorball League has just begun and Contact FireAnts being defending champions had to play the first game last Tuesday. It was not something that we wanted knowing that it will take some time for us to get into the league. We had never started strong as a team in all our previous outings. Something that we need to break away from. Besides that, we had to play the favorites to take the championship this year.

Well, as usual the FireAnts took a long time to get into the game. The team even seemed to be getting older as it struggled to play with a much faster team. Within minutes into the game and Ztec opened the score. It was a quick counter attack and from that point on the defense was just lost. Final score 0-7.

Although we knew that this was going to be a tough game and that the chances of winning were very very slim, we also know now that the sluggishness of the team contributed to the big scoreline. The only consolation that the team had was a goal scored by Edward in the second period that was disallowed by the referees as the whistle had gone just before the shot was taken.

Time for FireAnts to get their act together and play their game. Lets look forward to the next game coming on the 25th June. See you all there!

Club Anthem

It has been a long time since we have added anything into our blog. Apologies to all who have been following.

PFL Division 2 is over and there has been much written about it in borakborakfloorball, so we will not repeat ourselves here (although we must say that not everything that is written there may be in agreement with our full opinion).

Division 1 is just around the corner and teams are ready to play their hearts out. We want to take this opportunity to introduce the team anthem that we have adopted. It is the motivation to our games and how we play them. Enjoy it by clicking the sidebox.

Running After You

Your Word is a light unto my path
Your Love guides me through my darkest night
And even though sometimes Your ways
I cannot understand
I’ll never walk away because my future’s in Your hands

I don’t care what people will say
I’m running after You
I won’t turn back and go their way
Coz I’m running after You
Yeah I’m running after You
I’m running after You
(I will run to You)

I don’t care what people will say
I’m running after You
I won’t turn back and go their way
Coz I’m running after You
Don’t matter what may come my way
I’m running after you
It’s You I’m following today
I’m running after You
I’m running after You
