Pilot study to drop selection trials for CCA

In a post not long ago, I spoke about sports is for all, I guess it finally sets in for Singapore.

This should be done like 30 years ago, it is 30 years too late, most importantly at all levels not just primary.

From the point of creating a base or for whatever purpose, for me, it is the purpose of creating a sporting lifestyle for everyone, this in turn also makes the people more healthy in the scope of physical aspect, while the mental aspect also works as more people are included and not left out because there are not selected on the basis of no skill and more.

Winning for the school or medals are useless, unless you want to win a asian games medal or at world games level. Singapore cannot even win at gold level for any popular sport, even if you train in Singapore it it highly unlikely, proven in Singapore for many years, one hit wonders do not apply.

If one day Singapore becomes like Brazil, a sports culture or even like Thailand, then something like constant results will come, till that day, the most urgent point is to create a base for all to play.

The individual can only do so much, perhaps the next step is to allow homegrown talent to grow not in the sport, but in the coaching level, the standard for coaches is lousy, anyone can be a coach, the most important point again, I stress is the will to encourage players, not needless shouting or outstanding medal producing background.

This aspect is lacking in Singapore, unique to Singapore, we do not need you to be registered or whatever, I guess their mindset is to have a list to protect the children or their own agenda, this is useless in reality, coaches need to have not just a roadmap but a true heart of helping at all levels to let people achieve their goal of working out and eventually happiness not results.

Some communication is needed, just more on the ground things need to be done, that is what is needed now.

Seldom people realise that point, in many cases recently has shown, if you want to know more cases, please google yourself. True to void deck boy style, ownself check ownself.

Mat yo joins Thai League

Mat yo has join Bangkok glass, a class player, calm, cool and many more. The link below shows the official status, he has said to bring at least one cup, indeed a good and most important, a footballer.

The funny thing is that the player in white used to play in Singapore, he has even appeared in movies,  those Thai who are into the media scene will know, I am from Singapore, I was shock to see him in a movie also, that was years ago. 

As a person who loves sports, I wish mat yo to score at least 5 goals, I hope for more, which is for Bangkok glass to stay in the top tier for many years to come.

look inside china's sports camps

Living in Singapore, sports is seldom talked about in everyday life, some say because of culture, some say because of life.

For me, this is all rubbish, I saw this video long ago about training camps in china, this link shows china sports camps, a glimpse, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-OGKGmxSbw

From young I like sports, as far as I can remember, most of the coaches were doing selection of a basis which is similar all around the world, your height, weight, even your parents height.

But they do not select the person who has the will to go all the way, never once I was selected for a team which has the means of coaching at a elite or even national level, because all the teams were run like a class, which does not work for sports.

I believe even today with no evidence, it still is the same. 

I can even remember once I was not selected because I had no skill, I would like to relate that instance to todays sports scene.

Is china a backward country, I think that it is a joke, china has always been better than Singapore, now and forever, in sports or even economy, the Singapore dollar is stronger or should I say is the china money more smelly.

Some people will just keeping saying, I think it is about time that they treat sports not just for the elites or some teams only, sports is for everyone, even if you are on a wheelchair or disabled.

Sometime I wonder is this country regressing, then when I take a step back I think, then I am awaken, it is the people who are unable to see or choose to not see. The people who are managing are not capable, incompetent and most importantly, fail to see beyond a person physical standards, which is only one point.

Many do not even have interest in sports, let alone do the sport, a good point in the video is, a good base, which is to let everyone do the sports, a good foundation, a good number, even for fun or simply to burn weight.

Everyone can join the team but not everyone can be an olympic gold medallist.

Infighting, bickering, a teacher once even said that having pride for the country is making a mockery. No wonder Singapore is going to fail in sports for a long time. 

True to void deck boy style, wayang to the max, anyway thanks to all the readers who still read this blog, see you in the next post.
