RSC played Aquinas College from Perth on 12 April 2012 at Stadium Hoki Tun Razak. Aquinas is a regular visitor to Malaysia and RSC has hosted them in all their previous trips here.
Aquinas came with a very young side, with an average age of just 16, whilst RSC was represented by the usual mix of a few young players, middle aged, 'matured' and 'very matured' players.
We certainly appreciated the fact that we had a good turnout of 18 players for the game, as we needed to rotate our players considering the furious pace the game was played by our young opponents.
Fortunately for us, experience and luck prevailed this time and we came out winners with a 5-3 margin. Our goals were scored by Joel Van Huizen (2), Jay Ooi (1), Baldwin Zacharias (1) and Vincent Mariadass (1).
In true Malaysian spirit, the game was followed by a makan kecil at the stadium arranged by our Convenor, James Sia, and our Australian guests were more than happy to tuck into our local cuisine (including our locally brewed beers!).
Aquinas thanked RSC for hosting the game and expresed their hope that they may reciprocate sometime in the future!

A couple of words from Aquinas. See you in Perth (we hope!).
Old friends (Obviously!)
