I haven't been involving myself in basketball tournaments for months until last Sunday, 8th February 2009. It was Admiral 3on3 basketball tournament that was held in Plaza Mont Kiara. My teamates were Prashad and Chi Yung.
Woke up at 6 o'clock in the morning, bathed, packed my bag and went to pick Chi Yung up. After that, headed straight to Berkeley to fetch Prashad and another three of his friends, Alex, Cenn Born and Jack who participated in that 3on3 also. So altogether, there were two teams in my car.
Reached there a bit late because we couldn't get to Plaza Mont Kiara even though it was right in front our eyes. We didn't know which flyover to use until we went to a petrol kiosk and asked for directions.
Truthfully, i would say that i was kind of nervous because i haven't been playing tournaments for almost 5 months!
The first round, we beat Lucky17 11-3.
The second round, we beat Unknown 11-4.
The third round, which was the Semifinal, we beat KHS2 10-1.
And the last round which was the Final, we beat Goblok 4-0.
I know it was weird to play only two games to advance straight to the semifinal. It was actually grouping stage. Each group has three teams in it. The team that won two matches in grouping stage advances straight to the semifinal. This system helped the weaker teams to play more games.
As the champion, we walked away with an Admiral voucher worth RM600. So we shared that RM600 among three of us, RM200 each.
I bought 3 pairs of Admiral shoes with the voucher. Bought a casual shoe and an outdoor shoe for myself and a sport shoe for my brother. Wanted to buy clothes with the voucher but Admiral clothes don't suit my taste. =D
Anyway, i'm writing this just to share with you guys. =)
Lastly, a group photo of us.
