Every year while the Malaysia is celebrating it's formation (that is the merger between the Peninsula, Sarawak, North Borneo and Singapore to form Malaysia) on 16th September 2012, the BB bunch in Kuala Lumpur will be out for a round of sports in fellowship with the Stedfast Association of Kuala Lumpur. This year, since September 16th fell on a Sunday, with the next day declared a public holiday, so the games was rescheduled to a day later. This time, 4th KL played host and the event was held at St. Gabriel's Church.
It was a big crowd this year, with all companies from KL State represented. Games played where badminton, basketball volleyball, futsal, table tennis and carrom.
My role this time was just to be the umpire for table tennis, though at one point I had to switch roles as there weren't enough people to play.. so I partnered Qi Yang in the doubles. We were initially doing pretty well, winning the first two sets and almost winning the third. But as fate has it we lost the last three sets, though it was mainly my fault. No excuses!
The Stedfast Association Team takes it home once more!
In the end of the day, only our carrom team won while all the rest.. we were beaten flat by Stedfast. So much for bringing back the overall trophy this time! Perhaps the Lord will smile upon next year.. but I think we better have a few rounds of training next time rather than just coming to the games unprepared. Nevertheless, the was a good time of fellowship with SA members and we hope to see more collaboration in times to come!
