RAFFLES WATERPOLO BATCH 07

CHAMPIONS! hmm... calling us?

Monday, January 01, 2007

Hey Raffles Waterpoloers,

wishing everyone a very, very, very happy new year. May this year bring blessings for one and all, and may you end this year knowing that you had achieved something on both personal and higher levels, as well as taking a deeper breath to inhale a more meaningful lease of life.

And of course.... B Division 2007 draws closer and closer. In silence, hear the clock tick. Every tick brings you closer to the day you will be at ACSI to fight. Fight, yes, fight.

This is the time we've all been waiting for. This is the time of our young lives. Let us realise that this is now, or never. Search ourselves. If we want it, let us go all out to get what we want, and what we feel we deserve. I know we can, and I don't you know if you do, but please trust me and all the others who believe that in April this year, we will lift the B Division trophy as tears of bittersweet, undescribable joy soak our sleeves.

Let us work hard, swim hard, shoot hard, and not look back. In life, we are given many chances, but for many things, it is either you do it, or you don't. And if we want to do it, let us spend some time to think - how best can we prepare ourselves for it? How do we make sure that we will not only hit the top of our game, but even past the top of our game?

Water Polo isn't just a physical sport. The mental factor, believe it or not, is just as crucial. Have those brawns on your biceps, but if your mind is not strong, you cannot win. And of course, let us not be cynical about these words of hope.

Guys, I believe in all of us. We have a great team, and even more importantly, a great team spirit. Keep it burning, keep it burning. Think of yourself breaking down into tears of joy at the final whistle of the matches that come. Keep this vision within yourself, and use it as a motivation to spur yourself, push yourself to become the best you could ever be.

KEEP THE VISION FLOWING. KEEP THE PASSION BURNING.

Let's leave our legacy in history.


Once again, wishing Raffles Water Polo a fantastic, fantastic Year 2007 ahead.


warmest regards,

Tom Yet
