Sports Carnival

Today is our college's sports carnival day. I represented hmc to play in the volleyball. What a exhausted and interesting day!!! Basically, my team contains only 6 player, which is 3 male n female each, therefore we can't afford to have any substitution like other teams as we are just enough of players.

As my teammates and I didn't really play together before and few of them i even know them just today, so at first we start introduce ourselves first. Then later on we started to discus a bit on the strategy. Between we had deal that each one will have to shout out loudly " Let Go" whenever he or she intend to take ball so that no miscommunication will happen like two fighting for a ball. Try imagine if we don't have this strategy, how can we control the ball well? In fact, this strategy really work for us, as we manage to enter the semifinals. Due to the fact that we don't have any substitution, our energy started to run off, especially the girls. Therefore, during the semifinal match, which was the hottest time at 12 something, our performances were affected. Some miscommunication happened as some forgotten to shout for the ball and it caused us losing points. At first we were like standing inside the court for losing only, but it didn't lasted long, we started to cheer each other up. Finally, the gap were closer as we started to catch up. However we still lost, but we were really happy with our late performances.

This show us that communication can really make a point in a game. It could help us when to avoid miscommunication in between and also useful when we facing some negative situation.
