Came back stronger!

Day 4 Match 7
TAYLORS LAKESIDE Storm vs UCSI U Red Legion

By Tyler (UCSI U Red Legion)

Came back stronger!

Today will be the fourth day of the Campus Dodgeball League. This time Red Legions were assigned to play against the Storms from Taylors Lakeside. Once again, Red Legions have won the match with the score of 3 to 2 against the Storms. Though on the previous day of the competition, Red Legions were defeated by the Hybrids from Inti College, but that definitely did not bring the spirit of the Red Legions! Thus, we have proven to everyone by winning the game today.

On the first half, the starting line ups for the Red Legions were Benji, Jacky, Aaron, Vanessa, Valerie and also Summer. Though at first it was a bit shaky for the Legions, but they have kept their heads up towards the whole game. Plus with lead by our captain in the team, Legions had played their heart out. Well, not to forget, Aaron has once again done an awesome job with his catching and shooting as well. As the first half time hits zero second, Storm have lead the match by 2 to 1.

During the break in between the first half and second half, both team’s dodgettes have performed and it is really hard to explain the excitement with words. Well in other words, you should be here to experience it yourself. During the dodgettes, the captain of Legions have given some words to his team and with that, Legions have come back with more confidence. The 6 men from the Legions were Benji, Ah Kean, Aaron, Mamali, Ali and also Jacky. As for the second half for today, both Aaron and Jacky were doing really-really good with their catches and throwing.

As for the second half, it was a really-really tight match; where by Legions only get too tied up with the Storms at the almost final minutes of the game. When the point was given to the Legions, everyone in the stadium was cheering their lungs out. As for the both team’s supporters, they were so loud that when the head marshal was shouting, no one can hear what he was trying to say. It was that loud people. Anyways, as the both teams were fighting for the team, Legions tried to counter as much as they can and that have given them the advantage since the survivors from the Legions are more than the Storms. Everyone was shouting for the last 10 seconds countdown, and thankfully, the Legions managed to survive and they have been awarded with a point which means Legions won the match by 3 to 2 against the Storms.

That’s about for today; I wish everyone had a great time watching the games. Take care and good night!

Red, Red, Red Legion! Rawrr~

1.Good game details but what’s lacking is a story. You’ve done a good job so far on the reporting side but remember that you have to keep coming up with new ways to capture the attention of your audience

Though we lost, but we definitely had fun.

Day 3 Match 8
UCSI Red Legion vs INTI Hybrids

by Tyler Lim (Red Legion)

Though we lost, but we definitely had fun.

Today, 4^th of October 2010 is the 3rd day of the Campus Dodgeball League (CDL). Red Legions were assigned to play against the Hybrids. In case you don’t know who the Hybrids are, they are teams that were based on really experienced players. Nevertheless, same goes to the Red Legions! Unfortunately, luck wasn’t on our side this time. Though we have won the previous games back to back, this time the winning wasn’t with us.

Even though we lost the game, our captain of the team, Benji Wong was really proud with the performance of his fellow team mates. As for the first half of the game, Mamali, Ah Kean, Aaron, Vanessa, Summer and also Ofelia were the players. Despite the fact, Aaron being injured, he was doing his best and giving out his best performance in the game. He manage to kill Mun Wai will his first ball and catch I’ Smile’s ball after that. Besides being a good thrower, he was catching the balls over and over again.

Not to forget, Vanessa one of our best female player in the team, was doing a good job in dodging all the balls that were coming towards her. As the time hits zero, we were down with 2 to nothing on the score board. But that didn’t affect any of our players and also our fellow supporters. They were cheering their lungs out and clapping their hands as a sign of congratulating the Red Legions for their amazing performance.

After the dance moves from the dodgettes from the both teams, second half started immediately. This time, not only Aaron was playing on form, but Michiyo a.k.a. Jacky as well. He was catching the balls that are coming towards him as though he was playing as a goal keeper in a football match! I would say it was an awesome performance from him. As for conclusion, as the blogger of the team, I am very proud of my teammates as they have tried their level best in the game. Well, as our captain always says to us, ‘We win as a team, we lose as a team!’ And that is the spirit of Red Legions!

Despite being the losing team, we are still strong and passionate with the game of dodgeball. We will come back as a better team in the upcoming matches and hopefully will win the matches ahead. I think that is about all, I really do hope that you all had an awesome day today. Red Legion blogger, signing out!

Red, Red, Red, LEGION! Rawr~

Proud to be Red Legion

Day 2 Match 7:

UCSI U Red Legion vs KDU Ronins

By Tyler Lim (UCSI Red Legion)

Proud to be Red Legion

Once again, the Red Legion has won their match in the CDL tournament. Today (29^th of September 2010) marks the second day of this league and Red Legions were to face the home team which are the Eagles from Politeknik Shah Alam. From a interview, we have found out that the home team a.k.a. the Eagles are only 2 months old, but no doubt they really know the game of dodgeball.

Aaron Tan controlling the game

Even though the games between these two big teams were held at around 2330 hours today, but yet the crowds still has the energy to cheer for their team. As a Red Legion, I am very proud to see that my fellow Red Legions were doing their very best to win the game. And yes, they have won 5 against 1 with the Eagles. At first, the game was a little tight, were both teams were doing their best to win the first match. Well, luck was on the Legions; hence we have leaded the game first.

The Girls for the Legions

As for the first line up of the game, it was of course our very own Benji Wong (captain), Oksilat (Ali), Aaron Tan, Leng Leng, Vanessa Tan and also Valerie Tan. I strongly believe that they all have performed in their very best. Though, Aaron Tan was injured on the first day of the Tournament, but it did not stop him from coming back this match.

Not only he could heal up and play in the game, but he was doing very well as well. Not to forget, in the first match for today, he almost killed the whole team. Not to forget, one of our best foreigners, Oksilat, he was performing well.

As for conclusion, as a member of Red Legion I would like to thank the home ground for giving an A game to everyone. Like what we have hoped for, injuries to be prevented. That is about all for now, I hope for those of you that have witnessed the game yourself, and you have enjoyed the game. Thank you very much for your time, take care and good night!

Red Legion’s first match on the CDL tournament!

Day 1 Match 7
Taylor’s Lakeside Storm vs UCSI Red Legion

by Tyler Lim (UCSI Red Legion)

Red Legion’s first match on the CDL tournament!

Wow! What an exciting kick off from Red Legion! In this first round, they had to face the mighty Storm from Taylors! Well, naturally, they were nervous like crazy when they knew they had to do. Nevertheless, our players were ready for the game. Well as the for the first starting line up, it was Mamali, Benji, Aaron, Summer, Vanessa and also Valerie. Though at first we were feeling a bit nervous, but thanks to the cheering from the awesome crowds, they were all pumped up and with that, all the fellow Red Legions were hyped up to face their opponents.

At the beginning, Benji, Mamali and also Aaron ran for the balls. And Benji threw the first shot right after that. Though the ball missed his target, but I’m pretty sure that sends out a clear message to the opponents that we the Red Legions are not easily to be beaten. After the amazing throw from Benji, Aaron tries and his ball hits on target (number 6). Since Aaron hit his target, the opponent has spotted their new target, which is him. But then again, not only he can throw well, he dodges well as well or in other words, he’s what we call a good dodgeballer!

To make the story short, Aaaron has successfully hit two opponents which are number 6 and 23. At the first round, the Red Legions were confident enough that we can take out the opponent. True enough, we took swept the first round within 6 minutes after the game starts. Not to forget, our very first game ended in an EPIC way, where by our very own Summer, was the last woman standing in the pit. Of course, she had made an amazing catch where it has brought a winning point to the Red Legion. After her catch, the crowds went wild and start cheering for her name. Well you have to really be there to experience the wildness of the crowd.

Above will be the picture of our three beautiful dodgettes performing during the break. Well I gotta say, they can really move their body! After the performance, we were back with 2^ND half of the match. This time, the players line up were all boys, which are Mamali, Aaron, Ah Kean, Oksilat also known as Ali, Shayne and also Jacky. But unfortunately, one of our good players, Aaron accidently injured himself by knocking his hands towards Jacky’s body, which results a terrible pain on his right hand. Due to that, Benji had to substitute him and take over his place.

Even though, Aaron was not playing for the second half, but Red Legion’s spirit were still high! It was sort of shaky at first, where most of our player were knocked out, but we came back with an awesome results were the Storms (opponent’s team) were left with only one girl. Due to that, Red Legion drags the game so that the time will finally hit 0.

Overall, it was a tight and exciting game we had with the Storms. Of course, they were doing really well themselves. And because of that, Red Legions have given them a round of applause as a sign of respect.

Red, Red, Red LEGION!! RAWRR~

First of, as the team's blogger, I would like to thank all our supporters that have came to watch the match. winning this tournament would be one of our very first achievement since we are a very fresh and new team.

Although they may address Red Legion as a new team, we've prove to ourselves and others what we are capable of. But then again, winning the competition doesn't mean we are forever unbeatable, hence we will try our best to train more in order to have a better team so that we can win more for the upcoming tournament(s).

We would like congrats the girls' team as well for their awesome achievement. To us winning is not that important but getting the experience and to know that we can play well together is. So keep up the good work girls, you girls can do it!

Rest well my dear Legions as we have a 'war' waiting for us. CDL !

 Champions!
