Good Job Team ~

2010-02-21T17:17:00.004+08:00

Alright. Its been ages since this blog has been touched. Recently we had a matchup against Serangoon JC. First Half score : 0-2; we were loosing. Full time score: 2-2

Well, the scoreline shows quite a lot:
1.Our strategy of not doing too many substitution is working.
2.We have the potential as a team to play competitively.
3.The team did not give up after the first 45 mins and we gave them hell of a time :D

And ya the keeper Mr. Owen Ong Tze Hao. Keep up the good work and stop PCC and leak goals. Oh ya and brush up on goal kick. :D

We are also considering buying a couple of soccer ball maybe. If that's the case, we'll each have to fork out $3 each. Discuss it when we meet up.

Goal chart has been updated. Hope to see everyone during soccer since the holis are approaching. Good Luck and Good Job!

P.S. thanks Darren for the participation.hah!

Formation For Sunday ( 28 June )

2009-06-26T18:14:00.008+08:00

This is the formation set up for sunday match at First Toa Payoh Secondary. Pardon me, if I left out any of your names. Goodluck and All Hail Victories!! :D
And lastly, those who are still blur, please be reminded that we will be meeting at Bedok Platform at 1.15pm at the first cabin there. Late comers will not be entertain.

Hiah Hiah Hiah Hiah Hiah Hiah

2009-06-24T20:19:00.009+08:00

ALRIGHT!!!! we won.

So 3-2 was the final score. Personally, I think 3-1's more appropriate =D. Score chart's updated already. Overall good play. Couple of injuries here and there from several players including myself. We need more sharing sessions after every match. Hopefully everyone has the least of something to say each session. Thankful for the participation of Andy and Ray.

OK.

Regarding the match this Sunday, its located at:

First Toa Payoh Secondary School.
3pm to 5pm
According to Yong Liang and his girlfriend's statement, the opponents only have 11 people and are not of very high standards. We'll be playing on artificial turf.

Lets meet at bedok platform at 1:15pm. Train journey would take at least 40 minutes. After that, bus 238 ride from toa payoh interchange would take 10 minutes. We'll have a time span of about 40 minutes before kick-off. We'll take the time do some passing and warm up.

Please try to have your lunch before meeting up and be on time so that everything runs on schedule.

Those going by yourself please have the courtesy to inform either Edwin or Clarence.

Have faith team and let's play like how we did on Saturday. Feel the bond. And ya before I forget, Ma Wei Yang declares that he's going to score a goal during the match. We shall wait and see. =D

For those injured. REST WELL. HEAL FAST.

Dinner together after match? Team.

Thanks.

VENUE: EAST VIEW SECONDARY
TIME : 3-5PM
DATE: 16 MAY 09

4-3 - the final score.

2009-04-25T21:33:00.003+08:00

Hi teammates. Sincere apologise to those who didn't get to play today. Hope you really understand.

Today's half we got the lead 2-1. But after switching a few players up in 2nd half, we lost the lead. I believe its because we lack the communication and rythm with addition of new players. I think in the future, we should add one player at a time. Let that player get used to it and only then should we add the next one. We chose about 4 or 5 changes today at on go. This may be the flaw that led us to the final score. Hm..

There will soon be sessions being organised to play train our touches. I'm sure when we played 3-touch that time, we improves quite some bit. But ppl like Jin Quan, Jin Kwee, Jun Ping, Sheng Quan, Shuo Yuan and Hanjun were'nt there.

So ya. Hope you guys turn up for training at TP astro turf. Understand that Sheng,Shuo,Jin and Jun has lesssons on weekdays. Maybe we'll agree on saturday morning or even better, if we're able to book Boon Keng's standard sized turf.

Only then can we train stamina, support, communication and movement.

Thats about all. Will post on updates again. Clemence is organising the next match which is against his classmate. Let be more hardworking when playing the next time round. Nice team spirit and let WIN our next upcoming match.

And regarding the formation, it will most probably be about the same as today's match but with a few changes.

Time For A Group Hug!

2009-01-11T18:30:00.005+08:00

Hey peeps...its been a job well done last last saturday. Score was 4-2 (2 scored by Wei Siang so by right its 6-0 la) . Think that we should try for a clean sheet the next time ya? So maybe we'll play defensive during 2nd half if we were to have a major lead in scoreline.

One thing i noticed is that everyone had each other's back. Encouraging ' NICE ONE LA' to each other. thats nice to see ;D Everyone's more alert and more fierce now. So keep the encouraging spirit going on and hope we'll do the same, or even better the next time round.

One thing regarding the jerseys. Those who haven't pay, pls do so by chinese new yr. Take note that we are pay 25 bucks and that is only the deposit. so do put aside more money so that we'll be able to pay full sum when the deposit is paid. ESTIMATED price should not be exeeding 50 bucks. And so, we'll be looking forward in seeking for everyone's cooperation. Feel free to tag about shirt brands that you guys want to have other than FBT =D.

And there's a saying that there'll be an upcoming match nxt saturday. Not that sure about who the opponents are. Hope we'll pull off a great game again. Continue to support each other and be there for ur mates =D. i think EDWIN would proberbly brief us or update a post about the upcoming match. If not, bug him.

Scoresheet will be updated when there's time. So patience shall be the practiced.

Ey. A stupid opinion. why not we do a group hug next time before we start a match? NO HARM NO HARM :D

But for now, good luck for your upcoming exams (and i like that team spirit going on for a start)!

New Jersey To Be Made!

2008-11-11T20:53:00.001+08:00

I guessed everyone should have known by now that we are creating our team new jersey and that also there are several suggestions that have been suggested. Firstly, we would print our team name "Once Ardientes" on the jersey itself. And next, we would print only the numbers and not name. Followed by the colour which would either be pink or orange in which we are still deciding. Lastly, we are still deciding whether to have 2 kind of jersey ; one which is away and the other is home. We would be taking a trip down to queenstown soon when everything has been confirmed. Keep yourself updated with the blog.

Clarence and Ting will play more defensive in order to cover up the sidebacks.

Subtitutions will be : Eddy, Desmond, Tze Hao, Jonathan, Shou Yuan, Joel Tian

*Note that Subs are COMFIRM playing. So ya...have fun and be sure to trash their noob ass.

2008-09-08T20:15:00.003+08:00

Hey peeps!

I have taken the time to allocate us into 4 groups. These groups are to better help us get things done more efficiently. When there's a field, cage, or whatever booked, these 4 'group leaders' are to collect money from you all. If you cannot make it for a certain event, you can also pass on the message to your leaders. And for other enquiries, you are also free to contact them. So look out for your names and identify your respective leaders in charge.

In any events where the leaders are unable to be present for a event, he is still responsible to get his group members posted and feedback the other 3 leaders on who will be going and who will not. =D

*Note that these groups will not be applied to street soccer as names of some other members are no included.

Yong Liang - 81632960
Clarence - 97482066
Edwin - 82226070

2008-08-29T12:47:00.009+08:00

ATTENTION!!!

The cage has been BOOKED. There is only 3pm to 7pm available and so the person said that if no one plays during 6pm to 7 pm, we'll get to use it with no extra peak hour charge. Total cost is $100 and there are about 15 people going. So each person would need to pay $6.70. The change would go to soccer fund. So we'll meet at respective bus stops with the usual cliques. Contact via HP. (Clemence better not be late) =D

By the way, Soccer this saturday has been cancelled due to lack of response.

And please be reminded again that there is going to be a match on the 6th of September (Saturday). Time would most probably be 4pm.

Take Care

Match Postponed.

2008-08-27T00:15:00.002+08:00

Hi Team!

We'll be having a friendly match against IMT on the 6th of September. They have already agreed on it. So for those who can make it please inform Yong Liang, Edwin, Boon Chong or Clarence by the end of the week because we'll have to book the field.

Set 3 training

2008-08-15T01:32:00.001+08:00

Ok as u all can see this is much the easiest to do. Goalkeepers save shots from people. (1) and (2) will shoot at their respective NEAR POSTS. F which is a feeder will feed the ball to (3) which will chip the ball towards goal forcing the goalkeeper to return back and try to save it from going in. (3) will be 10metres away from the penalty box and (1) and (2) just on the edge of it. So YA. Its just that easy. Just trains on shooting basically more of a goalkeeper routine. Every person takes 3-5 shots each and swaps positions. Points accumulated for each goal scored and each shot saved above ground. Grounded shots does NOT count.

P.S. More will be added due time when u guys finish your exams at 25th and we will try out asap to get results. PERFORMANCE IN TRAINING WILL BE NOTED AND EVALUATED. So, please do not try your best. Make sure you do your best to improve.
GOOD LUCK FOR EXAMS!

SIGNING OFF: B.C.

Set 2 training

2008-08-15T01:16:00.000+08:00

Ok. Almost self-explanatory. 2 Attackers S1 and S2 tries to get past D1 through to D3.
Attackers must try and coordinate passes to each other to find ways to pass the defender. Each attacker has a limitation of MAXIMUM three touches at a time and has to pass it. Attackers get 1 point for each defenders passed and defenders get 1 point for every interception made.

Easy? NAH. Touches may be scaled down to 2 and even 1 for the better ones. So, no. It's not as easy as you think.
Points? YES THERE IS POINTS AND THERE IS REWARDS. Further details will be released next time. O Ya when the attacker loses the ball, THEY MOVE To THE BACK OF THE DEFENCE and become a defender as for the attacker, moves to the attacking line up. SO, DO YOUR BEST FAGS.

Dimensions are roughly 20 by 20m for each defender's area. It will be a square. Trains on passing, teamwork, anticipation tactics and of course DEFENDING!

EDIT: Dimensions may vary. O and not to forget, Attackers, you lose when the ball gets out of bounds of no matter whatever reasons. YOU DID NOT CONTROL.

1st Set of Training Scheldule

2008-08-15T00:56:00.001+08:00

Ok so here is the thing. I personally think that we need to improve crossing so ya this stuff improves crossing either low or high and makes passing more accurate to flanks better too.
As you can see , straight unbroken lines means running or sprint. Dotted means passing of ball. And arrows itself means shoot/head whatever.
To the main point. (1) will pass to (2) and that he will pass to (5) who made a timed run to the flank to receive the ball and he will pass the ball to 6 via crossing or low cross high cross whatever. And 6 will take the ball and finish it either first time with head, or taking it down and shooting the ball volley etc. This happens same for (3) (4) (7) (8). Just that it changes direction but exactly the same routine. Person in charge will be either me or someone else if i take another kind of training up

EDIT: Length is about 20 metres +- breadth is full length

Hi all,

As you people can see, we have just lauched a blog. We have done a few changes to the team.

Firstly, we have appointed Clarence as the Captain; Edwin,Boon Chong and Yongliang as the Vice-Captain.

Boon Chong will be in charged of training routines every training session.

Yongliang will be in charge of planning the teams for every training session.

Edwin will be appointed to be the treasurer of the team.

Clarence will be the overall in charge.

Secondly, this blog is launched to pass on messages and announcement in an efficient way. We also hope that this blog will help bond the team.

Thirdly, we have just come up with our team name; the 'Once Ardientes', which is known as the 'Blazing Eleven' in Spanish. (Its pronounced as ONs Ar-De-En-Tes)

Forthly, if there is a need for discussion, polls will be posted on for you to vote. We hope to get maximum participation.

Fifthly, we have yet to decide on the first eleven of the squad. With that, we hope that you will stay committed to the team and attend every training session. Valid reason are understandable but we hope that you guys can turn up.
