So.. It is all over..

We WON!!! "You got SERVED, bitch SLAPPED and OWNED!!!"

Well, this year's win is not the end. It is merely the beginning on an end. The struggle to defend our "CHAMPIONS!" title has just begun! And it is our turn to host next year's BERSATU!!!

-CHIK CHAK BOOM, EEEYAAAH!!!!-

Okay.. I WAS going to put up some nice pictures of Christchurch BUT!!! Technology has let me down ONCE AGAIN! How to persuade others to come to Christchurch for Bersatu without pictures?? It is like looking at a food menu that has no pictures!! Can we live without technology??

This weekend... There is mini golf in the afternoon and disco bowling at night.

Hint.. Mini golf might be a new "sport" for Bersatu for next year..

..(speculations.. hehe..).. >.<"

What time is it?? Volleyball time!!

Blocking tips..

1. Whenever possible extend your arms across the net (PENETRATION!).

2. When move along ent to block, "plant" so that you jump straight up and down.

3. When moving along net and when jumping, carry hands at shoulder height.
4. The farther off the net the spiker is hitting the ball, the later the jump.

5. Watch setter's hands.

Yet another volleyball article?
I like..

First hit
Passing hints
- Call the ball
- Keep arms straight
- Hit with arm to dampen ball
- Push it into the air with arm and legs
- Bump high enough
- Most important is to control it!!

Third hit
Spiking hints
- If you do not know how to spike, start by hitting it like an overhead-serve
- If you cannot jump high enough (like me) to reach over the net, remember to hit it upward
- Try not spiking from too close to the net
- If you often hit too long, go for the diagonal since there is more court to hit into

Tipping hints
- Hit softly and not too high
- If someone is blocking you, consider a tip unless you spike well

Volley-ing hints
- Volley into a hole, often deep into opponent's court
- Tight-angle along net
- Low over net
- Used when set is not good
- Most important, deep into court, REMEMBER!!

Volleyball serving tips

Tactics
1. Make target passer move.
2. Avoid serving an error.
3. Do not try to serve ace.
4. Serve streaks; three or more points.
5. Serve the poorest passer.
6. Interrupt offense by serving the most likely setter.

7. Serve substitute.
8. Serve to obvious hole.
9. Serve at player who made last/ most mistake.

10. Be confident in yourself!!

Volleyball setting tips

Techniques

1. Arrive. Get to the point of contact before the ball.
2. Face the target. Weight on left foot with knees flexed.
3. Feet stopped, hands up. Form a "triangle" with your hands.
4. Contact ball, close to the face, with all five fingers.
5. Extend. Fully extend your hands and fingers towards the target.
6. Push off left foot, when releasing the ball.
7. Cover hitter!!

One more thing

Defence

1. Have "heart"! Defence comes from heart. Its something to take pride in. Good defence wins games. Have to want the ball more than anyone else and be willing to do whatever it takes to get it.

2. Cover court. The hardest part of defence is trying to cover the whole court. Believe you can touch any ball on court.

3. Being ready. Be on your toes.

Weird Chinese Surname - Wan

I bet most of us chinese would either have a friend who surnames is Wan ( Warm in canto ) or at least heard of this surname before.When you begin to mix chinese name and english name its like disaster waiting to happen lidat . I blog once about Anita Kwok today lets take a look at this Wan family.

Wan Siu loon got 2 sons and 2 doter, his children like every other teens they gave themself an English name
1.The 1st son call himself Sarm
2.The second son call himself Noe
3. The 1st Doter call herself Annie
4. The second doter call herself Avery

One day while Wan Siu Loon & wife is outta the country Noe got into an accident, Noe 's frends managed to call Sam to inform him about it and Sarm is trying frantically to contact Annie and tell her about it. Annie college's do not allow their students to bring handphone to skool thus Sarm gotta call the college principle's office to get him to ask Annie to come to the phone. the prinsipe name is Mr. Soh lee

This is the conversation :

Sarm : Hello Mr. Principle, can i speak to Annie Wan please?
Soh Lee : Yes You could speak to me, what izzit about ?
Sarm : No! I dont wanna speak to you! I wanna speak to Annie Wan
Soh Lee : Yalah You are talking to someone lah now!
Sarm : NO! I am Sarm Wan and urgently need to talk to Annie Wan !!!
Soh Lee : I know u are someone and u want to talk to anyone! But whats this urgent matter about?
Sarm : Well just tell my sister Annie Wan that our brother, Noe Wan got into an accident. Noe Wan got injured and now Noe Wan is being sent to the hospital. Right now Avery Wan is going to the hospital to take care of him the only one who doesnt know about this is Annie Wan!
Soh Lee : Look if no one was injured and no one was sent to the hospital from the accident that isnt an urgent matter! You may find this hilarious but i dont have time for this!!!
Sarm : Nabeh! Why you so rude one!!! Who are lu ?
Soh Lee : I am Soh Lee
Sarm : Nabeh you should be sorry, your mother no teach you dont so rude one ka ? Now gimme your name!
Soh Lee :

WUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Okay.. It has been raining... That means no sports.. Sucks! Nevertheless, there is always badminton tomorrow night. After badminton, we usually go for drinks.. Talking about "drinks," kt asked about food pictures..

Sure brought back good memories from Auckland?? Hope food in Dunedin is as good?? Athletes like us, need to be fed with GOOOOOOD FOOOOOOD!! Will conclude with a video-clip, be amazed!!

Okay.. Before signing off, one last note.. Social volleyball, this Saturday at Burnside.. Will love to see Yang doing a "facial"!! Haha, internal joke, haha.. Haha, and Cheong, receiving the "facial"!! Chaoz!

2006-04-02T16:42:00.000+12:00

Woohoo!! Disco bowling!!! As mentioned before there was bowling yesterday night... The turnout was good, really good..

Big thumbs up to Cheong then.. Although Cheong and Hui Min kept bowling their balls into the gutter..

The most memorable moment for me, was when ***ne was trying to bowl his second ball, I shouted, "***el", HAHA!!

Unfortunately, the ball went into the gutter as well, JK!! Overall, it was a good night. And I enjoyed the song by Mariah Carey entitled, "HERO".. -_-"

Something random.. Was looking at past CMSA pictures.. And came across this.. Was thinking of putting a picture of TW but decided not to, Hock instead.. >.<"

2006-04-01T14:44:00.000+12:00

Just you wait, T.W! Trying to fool me.. Hahahaha!! Just wait and see.

Okay coming back to Bersatu's progress.. We had a "healthy" competitive touch game yesterday. I reckon touch is such a man's game.. Doris was "game" enough to join us, good game, Doris!

Seng Cheong on the other hand.. Mark shakes his head.. Kept on letting the ball drop.. What went wrong, Cheong??

Oh by the way... Did you know today is April Fool's Day? Okay going back the touch highlights.. Unfortunately, Ellen and Jennifer were just too cool for us and did not join us for touch at all, pfft!!

But I think the best moment in yesterday's touch was... Hock putting the ball down without me touching him, HAHAHAHA!! Just joking, Hock, "HUHU".. Final note, all the best to those doing management science and afis123, study hard, keep "heart"! o.O"

2006-03-31T13:09:00.000+12:00

The QUESTION for today is..

Why did the fish cross the road??

If reply, chance to win...

2006-03-31T11:36:00.000+12:00

Hahaa class finished earlier today. Lecturer felt unwell.. Think there is a "bug" going around.. So just keep yourselves healthy?

Searched for a couple of futsal pictures.. Tw kinda got me hooked.. But it'll probably wear off. To volleyballers, futsal is gay, just like soccer players think volleyball is gay, haha..

I am going to get so much sh** from Tw.. Haha can feel it.. Wonder where is Yang?? He is supposed to come to vault.

Anyways... We had social futsal yesterday afternoon. Was an enjoyable game.. Think the best shot was Daniel scoring against Tung, haha..

And by the way... There is bowling tomorrow.. And dance party next Sunday, YA BABY!! So girls, wear your skirts that night, *winks*! No.8 will be doing some "scoutings" then..

Okay time to sign off and talk to Cheong.. Think there is touch today actually.. Allan's here, bye! >.<"

Common jargon used in modern volleyball:

Ace - When the ball is served to the other team, and it lands in court with no one touching it; can also be used to refer to a serve which is played by the receiving team, but in a way that it is not possible for them to get a second touch on the ball.

Bagel - When a team wins a game without allowing the opposite team to score any points. Much more rare since rally scoring has been adopted for most games, but the term is still used by players who played under side-out scoring.

Facial - When a spiker spikes the ball over the net and hits one of the opposing players in the face.

Kill - When a team spikes the ball and the defending team is unable to play the ball successfully.

Pancake - When a player digs the ball by putting their hand flat on the floor, allowing the ball to bounce on the back of the hand as opposed to the ground.

Roof - A block (typically one which results in a point for the blocking team).

Side out - When the team that served the ball loses the point, causing the other team to serve the next point.

Six-Pak or Pak - When a spiker spikes the ball over the net and hits one of the opposing players in the chest or stomach. "Pak" may be spelled "Pack" as in the common method of packaging canned beverages: a "six-pack".

Stuff - When a defensive player jumps above the height of the net, blocks the ball, and the ball goes back at the person who attacked (spiked) the ball.
