Jump Ball!

Thank you one and all for making Sports Day 2006 a roaring success. We were very fortunate to be blessed with excellent weather; under cloudless blue skies of Albert Park, we basked in the gentle sunshine while caressed by the refreshing cool breeze. From 10am to 2pm yesterday, we ardently played Captain's Ball, Human Fussball and a variation of Poison Ball with the use of water bombs.

Grouped into four coloured team of about eight, everyone displayed remarkable sportsmanship sharpened by a cutting competitive edge while utterly immersed in serious fun. In meting out their wits and skills in the final round of Captain's Ball, the two remaining teams fought an intensely close fight.

A worthy mention of adroit performance was the way in which three girls from the yellow team successfully maneuvered around and under the menacing members of the black team. With the towering Ramesh closing in on Amelia, she quickly passed the ball to Patricia who in turn safely delivered it to Captain Jean right under the nose of Ramesh.

Apparently, its not always about aiming high. Although the black team eventually emerged as the overall champion, everyone was truly a winner in their own right. Humanfuss ball involved the team members rigidly lined up across the playing field. Confined within their own lines, team members can influence the direction of the ball only by kicking with their legs, while being linked arm to arm.



To replenish our energy, we were treated to a barbeque buffet of sizzling sausages and chicken wings - it was pretty much all-you-can-eat. With that, we have officially launched ourselves into the well-deserved two week Spring Break. Whether or not you'll be spending most of your time preparing for the rest of the semester, or indulging in wild abandonment, Cosdu wishes you the best as we all strive towards the last lap of the academic year under the guidance and blessing of God our Father.
