1st Official Post of the Season

Hello Girls!

So if you are here and wondering if you are at the right place, you probably are. This is the blog that we've been talking about. I can't say it started from here but this was definitely one of the places we 'hanged out' and talked last season. Feel free to go through the quite huge archive of blog entries from previous year to know more about the team and the history behind US!

For those who weren't able to join us at MacRitchie last Saturday, you were missed but we'll keep you in on some of the action with the pics below (contrast between 07 & 08).

For those who were at Macritchie, GREAT and FANTABULOUS job! Wasn't a superbly long hike, but for the simple reason that you completed what you started, it's commendable already! That's what it's all about, ain't it? Finishing what we started out to do and finishing it well. As talked about earlier, success is a journey, not a destination.

We may fall, falter and fail but the key is not giving up. teamTJC has never given up to the odds, not matter how much they seem to be against us.
The little victories you made today is what matters. Celebrate the pockets of success you had today and live for another one tomorrow.

I may not know what are the little or MEGA obstacles/hurdles you face everyday, but one thing I know and believe. You can overcome it. Press in.

What teamTJC had before is special. What teamTJC has today is special too-the friendships, the bond, the conversations, the laughter, tears, pain, joy, setbacks, etc. Nothing can replace what the team has here today. The team is made up of what you CHOOSE to make of it.

You see, at the end of the day, even if we were to win the medals, they will be nothing compared to the relationships each of you have and will continue to share with each other. I've seen it in the previous batch and I'm certain each of them will profess to it too.

So when you see each other tomorrow or at the next training, remember this:
Who you are as a person is more important than what you can do as a player.

One life;
Live it.

One moment;
Seize it.

One chance;
risk it.

Passion
Purpose
Drive
