Floorball: sudden acknowledgment and inspiration
Sunday, September 14, 2008

NTU Storm beat SIM blacks 6-1 today. I'm happy, but my day was tainted with the fact that I sucked playing as forward. Didn't get much of the ball at the boards, due to the ineptness of all parties involved. Fluffed the little shots I had again.. NUA.

Thanks to one of my coaches who noticed something that I lack: game sense. I won't deny it anymore. I do not have natural game sense, which is probably why I didn't make it past trials in the first place. I need experience and gameplay in that specific position to cultivate it. Which explains why I couldn't run that well into space today, didn't go in hard enough on opponents. I am a little slow and stupid, and maybe inflexible, but given time and effort, I WILL SUCCEED in what I want to do.

And as for the match composure - I'm not making enough effort to improve it. For next games, be early for matches, visualise what to do in situations, and keep calm in the face of rough opposition. And keep in mind throughout the match to keep calm and take proper shots, make proper passes, make proper dribbles. It's ok to take that extra millisecond to calm down and do it. Whatever, just do not rush.

I look forward to IVP training!
