Postponement of C Div friendly match against Hillgrove Sec

This is to notify the C div training squad players that the match against HGSS is postponed to Friday 30th May morning.

Therefore, on the 28th May, instead of the match, we will have training instead. The coach and I are pleased have this training session. It will give him the opportunity to improve team play before we play HGSS on Friday.

Sports Day 2008

Fajar basketball members did very well in the recent Sports Day, held at the large Choa Chu Kang stadium.

Colvin Xu dominated the middle distance events, clinching the gold in the 800m and silver in the 1500m.

Jason Jang clinched the gold in the 1500m.

Yeo Han Kun sprinted to the gold in the 100m.

Lim Zi Ting managed 2 bronzes in the 400m and the 1500m.

Lian Ting Hao did well in his event too.

Finally, in the Inter-CCA 4 x 100m Relay, the Basketball team, consisting of Andy Goh, Kho Zhi Cheng, Lim Zi Ting and Colvin Xu, ran an excellent race to win the bronze medal.

Well done boys!
