For the Glory of Ares
11:23 PM »
Clad in red and armed with truckloads of determination and fighting spirit, Aresians made their presence known and felt at the Festival of Sports 2009, held on the 27th of October. Although the purpose of FOS was to let our hair down and have fun after promos, emerging 1st in 4 out of 6 categories and bringing home the overall title definitely brought glory to Ares (:
Here's a quick recap of our road to victory:
Basketball Boys
Our boys displayed tremendous grit and determination as they executed aggressive and stunning play on court, and did not back down even when the going got tough. Eventually, they emerged as champions! Good job guys (:
Basketball Girls
Our basketball girls team showed that girls were capable of swift play on court too. They managed to edge out their opponents with sheer determination and skill, and emerged champions too! girl power (:
Netball
Our netballers executed consistently strong play, and were seen constantly cheering each other on as well. Exhibiting great team spirit and resolve on court, we saw some brilliant attacking and tight defense from them.They managed to secure straight wins. Great job girls!
Soccer
Despite finishing 4th, the Ares soccer team put up a better fight than their position gave them credit for; with their sparkling displays of attack only coming apart as a result of a combination of ill luck and a few loopholes in their defense. Still we are really proud of them for their effort (:
Volleyball (Boys)
The team was a little apprehensive about their chances at first, but boy did they rock the court! With killer spikes and players going all out for every ball, our boys fought extremely hard. Their last match was particularly intense, and they had many Aresians at the side-lines cheering their lungs out for them. Eventually, they emerged victorious (:
Volleyball (Girls)
The volleyball girls began with a tough match against Athena, and were unable to counter their fierce serves. However, they soon regained their confidence, exhibiting immense fighting spirit and won their other games with steady serves and some fierce spikes. They emerged 2nd. Way to go, girls! (Sorry for the lack of photos)
OVERALL CHAMPS WHOOOHOOOO.
to all the Aresians who gave their all on the court/pitch.
to all those who came down to support the players.
to Athena, Artemis and Apollo for a wonderful day of sports and games.
to the PE department for helping to organise this.
to our supportive teachers.
and lastly to our sports i/cs You Jie and Noah for their effort in forming teams and making sure everything went as planned.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING FOS'09 A DAY TO REMEMBER FOR THE ENTIRE FACULTY.
see you at fos 2010!
Look out for updates on Space Bar 2009 on this blog in the coming week!
love to the moon and back,
