Trashed!!!! 24-0

Hello kids,

How do you all feel after your first game? Suxs? Depressed? Demoralised? Feel that you shouldn't have join this competition in the first place?
Or do you all feel more motivated to train harder?

Obviously, it suxs to lose, that's why people train to win.

Ask yourself, if given a choice, would you still want to play in today's match knowing you will get trashed?

Being a pioneer in a new sports for your schools is never easy, you all are the first batch of NUS high school canoe polo team, you all have no seniors to guide you all in the process of learning. No seniors to look up to, no seniors to correct your mistakes, no senior to demonstrate every moves. You will have to pick up everything from scratch all by yourself. You all are the pioneer, and soon to be seniors.

Now you all know your standard, where you all stand, how much hard work to put in, how much focus you all need, how much time you all wasted during training with all the nonsensical talk,

Do you all feel more motivated to train even harder?

I'm sure you all want to win, but you can't win just by saying you want to. It requires discipline, commitment, hard work, training is not about having fun, and sometimes is never enjoyable, tough, boring etc. The only fun is when you win during competition, or knowing that you have perform up to your standard.

This competition is just a eye opener for you, time to get serious and prepare for the challenges ahead. Jia you
