Kejohanan Hoki Veterans PHBI 2012 - 3 June 2012

Early Sunday morning, 3 June 2012... long before Dato Poon was awake (Yes, were all there by 8.15am!), we gathered at Stadium Azlan Shah for Kejohanan Hoki Veterans PHBI 2012. This was a friendly tournament in conjunction of the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup.

We dreamt of playing on the blue pitch!

But we got the green pitch instead...

Led by our Captain Bobby Ho, who played with a suspected fractured hand, we won 2 games and lost 1.

Deprived of breakfast and lack of sleep, Convenor James Sia performed well to let in only 2 goals... whilst the others just wanted to get on with the games and get out of the sun... and swiftly proceeded to the next agenda - lunch and drinks!

Representing RSC.... our veterans!

Cloth grip, Maharadja,
Wood, Grass...
Definitely a  veteran stick!

The friendly atmosphere with lots of goading and teasing among the veterans, followed by the catching up of old friends was what we came here for. Thanks to PHBI for organising the tournament!

(We found out much later that we apparently emerged as Champions of this friendly tournament!)
