MSSD

There's no excitement for this coming MSSD, i don't feel the explosive or excitement eventhough it's just 2 days away....



The players are not ready at all....We tried to give our best and make you all improve or be better, but it seems like it didn't turn out to be like this...I can give you all advices and i hope you all can follow it..



To Gareth:
You have many things to work on, mainly footwork and your endurance....Stamina is a must, but due to the lack of time, i teach you a simpler way, which is using mentality...It's gonna be tough, but you gotta stay on in the game and keep the momentum going...If you can fulfill some of the tips i give you, you can reach far in MSSD...As for footwork, practice it more often this few days....



To Beng Soon and Chong Wei:
Basically both of you are OK at the moment...But i will have to emphasis more on Chong Wei this time...you're doing too many mistakes, do not aim for any fancy or very outstanding shots, just try to keep the shuttle in the court, if there's chance to attack/kill, then do it, do not give chance to your opponent to let them kill you....If opponent returns a half court, just keep attacking all the way, do not clear/lob so much, you will put yourself into risk....As for Beng Soon, you will be the attacking player, put in all you got....



To Soon Len:
Basically you can make it there, due to lack of training, your strokes are now inconsistent...but the main key of the game is your mentality, how you all play psychologically with your opponent, make them frustrated etc....and also remember to keep your mentality strong, be determined and not to let mistakes frustrate yourself, if you can overcome that, you can make it =)



To Gabrina:
You are playing both singles and doubles(if not mistaken)...For singles, follow the advice i gave to your brother...For doubles, communication with your partner is very important and learn to set up, so you can kill your opponent, learn spinning tight net shots...it helps...and also your mentality, be strong and hold on, You can make it there =)



To Wern Lin:
Basically Nusa will give you all the tips already, what you normally do during training will help you a lot, but most importantly, believe in yourself and don't give up, fight through obstacles...if you can create history this time, i belanja u SWEET =D



To Elisia:
Be more active, that's all you need, and you are the power player in the team, so you have to set up an attacking game to pierce through your opponent's defence....and don't give up no matter how, put up a good fighting spirit....



To Yi Han:
You are the single player this time(i couldn't give you tips for your doubles as i have not seen your partner before)...From the previous match, here are some things you have to be cautious about...

1) Your footwork is fine, but your legs are very "jelly-like"....It has to be firm always...
2) Your inconsistency, if you can't make it for that shot, just put in the shot, keep the ball in the court and don't aim for net please... =_="
3) Your Smashes...they are basically good...if there's a chance to attack, finish up your opponent....



OK...that's all i can tell you all guys and girls, the rest is all up to you all to make it happen !



ALL THE BEST !
