Growing Big On Pool

Last few weeks ago, I received an sms from my coach, Ricky Chew, whether I wanted to join in a new squad for set up by Cue Sport Singapore - National Ladies Development Squad for Pool.

So, after weighing out the level of commitments and passion, I decided to join this newly formed squad. And so yesterday... there I was at the first training session.

Initially, I am afraid that it's going to be a very strict training which was conducted by the National Coach - Coach Chen who is a Taiwanese... As I always see him with very serious look on his face. But after the 1st session @ Klassic, I found out that he's actually a very fatherly figure. A coach that I think most people will love and respect...I think I will learn a lot from him!

Although the training was fun as I got to meet up with the rest of 14 selected girls and we had a wonderful time especially everyone was so friendly, I also noticed there were still varying differences in terms of skill and knowledge between most of us....although I admitted that all of us are considered pretty good among female players...

For me, I really look forward to going for training as I know I can improve, grow and learn alot from this squad as well as Coach Chen... but of course... I will always remember my initial coach Ricky...since it's with his encouragement and teaching that aspired me so that I can enter this squad...

I hope my aspiration for pool as a in-door sport will never cool off... so, do you like me, have something like a sport or hobby that keeps on inspiring you in life to brighten up your plain sailing life journey too???
