Open's finals 05

Went down with Jinquan to see the open's finals today. Wasn't really anything to be really proud of, 3 sets straight, held at a lousy venue like hougang sports hall with no spectator stands, no publicity and its supposed to be the highest level of local volleyball competition? I give up...

The match itself was a quite 1 sided affair. It was quite evident 1 side was composed of some younger players and strong main spikers. The other side had more experienced players (ie old), better but shorter setters. In fact I guess 1 of the main problems is that their left sided blockers could not cope with the main spikers of the other team. At the end of the day, youth and stamina proved vital for the win.

Saw a lot of familiar faces. Caught a glimpse of the HC alumni guys, who was what I set out to be one of them at one stage of my life. And I did managed to be part of them, however short and unhappy the experience may have turned out. After I left for NS I didn't talk to any of them anymore, even though sometimes I may see them around during such events. I do not know why but I just try to avoid them. Saw diwen as well, as told to me by lj he really expanded. Haha, but I still can recognise him I guess.

Maybe I will be back in the opens as a player one day? No thanks.
