My Youth Squad Selection Trials Results

Finally, after weeks of playing round-robin matches against the top players in Singapore, I finally managed to pull through the Qualification Round, I made to the Final-Round and emerged tops of the group and qualified to join the National Youth Squad. The playing system goes like this-there are 16 players and they are split into two groups. The top four of each group will proceed to the next round, where the top four will proceed into the Youth Squad. Sounds easy? Nope,not at all with the Sec twos around. I was quite lucky this time as many of the good players missed the matches. I hope that I will be able to make it to the Youth Olympic Games in 2010 and win a medal for Singapore, although know that it is difficult to defeat players from China and Indonesia, who train practically everyday. Nevertheless, it is always good to dare to have a dream instead of having no target in mind. With that, I end off what I have say here.
