Physical Training

As we draw closer to the prestigious Penang Floorball League next month, Head Coach Sam re-introduced weekly Saturday physical training to help us fine tune and be mentally prepared for Saturday matches as he claimed, players always look ‘stim’ and high on match day (Saturday mornings).

The workouts for the day, 1 warm up lap and 5 laps under 12minutes for guys and 15 minutes for girls. After the run, players were divided into 3 teams and continued with some core exercise. Many struggled to finish what it seems to be an easy exercise but don’t be deceived by the looks of it. Everyone ended their physical challenge with a big smile on their face knowing all the suffering is over.

Innebandy!Co 9th Annual Dinner

On the 26th May 2012, Innebandy!Co celebrated another milestone of their achievements and another year of their existence in the floorball world. Established since 2003, the club is still growing and glowing in it's community.

This year's annual dinner attracted 30 members to join in the fun-filled celebration. There was something new in this year's celebration dinner and it's none other than the InneDraw! 29 prizes were up for grab including an OxDog floorball stick which was co-sponsored by Fidem Sports, 2 Unihoc stick bags, 2 Unihoc water bottles, a Phiten Racing Bracelet, 3 Adidas water bottles, 4 Nike accessories, a Reebok socks, 4 GSC movie tickets, 4 PowerBars, 3 LiveStrong wristband, 2 Sushi King vouchers and 2 Marry Brown vouchers.

InneDraw prizes except the 2 cups

Before dinner, 1st round of InneDraw prizes were given out. Indian cuisine from Jaya Caterer was served during the night, with a simple meal of Nasi Tomato, curry chicken, mutton, chinese style fried vegetables and watermelon. Many find the food a little too spicy but overall the food was good and everyone enjoyed it.

Sam announced that everyone are discourage from sitting with their own clicks and were told to mixed around as they will be tested on their knowledge and understanding of a member of the opposite sex later.
After dinner, it was getting to know your teammates session facilitated by Sam, James and Lin Ken. Some manage to answer the questions posted to them and some failed. Unfortunately even during off trainings sessions, push ups were given to those who failed.

A photo presentation of the PFL 2012 highlights were presented thereafter. Creative and imaginary captions done by our very own James Looi tickled and entertained all that were present. It was a sweet journey looking back at the team's effort and journey towards victory. James added that the club's 'Independent Culture' philosophy made them stood out amongst the rest as there were pictures of the team clearing the boards and were told to keep that up.

Our team manager, Deswyn Wan then took the stage and gave a welcoming speech. A little introduction of Innebandy!Co to the newer members were shared together with the 6th law of victory which is, 'Commitment is Unquestionable'. He talked about the importance of commitment towards the club and the fruits bore from this trait. He added, the success of the club was owed to players who have been Innebandy!Co since the beginning and thank their commitment towards to club.

He then continued with the Award Ceremony which was given out by Tabernacle Of Praise's senior pastor, Rev. Gideon Lee. This year, 10 awards were given out to appreciate and acknowledge the effort and commitment shown by the players. Each recipient received a certificate for their achievement. The recipients were:

• Player Of The Year Award (Men) - Sam Teoh
• Player Of The Year Award (Women) - Cheah Pei Yi
• Best Rookie Player Of The Year Award (Men) - Radin
• Best Rookie Player Of The Year Award (Women) -Winnie Giam
• Team Player Award - David Kok
• Insane Courage Award - Joshua Loh
• Most Creative Player Award - Bryan Looi
• Most Committed Player Award - Lin Ken, Jason Chew, Sybrina and Josephine
• Law Of Victory Award - David Kok
• Training Philosophies - Bryan Teoh

Next was a short game which never fails to put laughter on everyone's face, the balloon game by Sam. It was guys versus girls, and the loser will have to wash the utensils at the end of the day. The girls were more cool and calm when playing this game, on the other hand, the guys were all crazy and high but weren't that effective, causing them to lose by 3 laps. But it was super hilarious with the things they can do with the balloon.

The finale of the night was the 2nd round of InneDraw,  everyone was hoping to bring that floorball stick back home. The moment came when Deswyn Wan drew the last number and announced the number. It was full of suspense as the number wasn't read instantly. "2 digit number with 0 in it." he cheekily said. And the grand prize winner goes to *drum rolls* ... ERIC WONG! He was laughing hysterically with excitement written all over his face.

Innebandy!Co would like to take this opportunity to thank their sponsors again, first and foremost, Pastor Gideon Lee for opening up the hall, Fidem Sports for co-sponsoring the stick, James Looi on behalf of Wesley Methodist Church for their cash contribution to the InneDraw prizes, Deswyn Wan and Sam Teoh for the Unihoc stickbags, Mr John Jonathan Leong for the Phiten Racing bracelet and Mr Lim Kok Heng for the cash contribution as well. And to the rest who wished to remain anonymous.

We shall see you all again next year for our 10th Annual Dinner.

Double Champions

Finally the Penang Floorball League Division 1 and 2 2012 has come to an end. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all teams and players who have won medals and to encourage the rest who did not win anything to try again next year and never give up. Just keep trying.

Division 1

Division 2

Innebandy!Co has made history by being the second club to ever win Division 1 and 2 simultaneously. Team Elite led by Captain Kao Lin Ken clinched their second consecutive victory in a comfortable lead ending their campaign with a 6wins-1draw-0lose stat.

Team Elite lifting the Cup

In contrast with Team LiveStrong, under the captaincy of James Looi, the team started their campaign losing their first 2 matches. That placed them at the bottom of the table for almost a month but slowly picked up the pace and climbed up the rank till the final game.

Div 1 and Div 2 trophies

The title decider match against Frontliners was a heart pounding, nerve wracking game as both teams were fighting head to head throughout the 3 periods. However, Team LiveStrong's Divesh netted a brilliant goal in the first period and that was enough to secure the team the champions title.

It was a memorable night for the team as 4 players from Innebandy!Co were selected to receive the all star awards namely Sam Teoh (Left Defender), Deswyn Wan (Centre), Bryan Looi (Left Forward) and James Looi (Left Defender D2). In addition, 4 players from Div 1 and 3 players from Div2 are in the Top 10 for point leader. Div1 #2 Deswyn Wan 40points #3 Bryan Looi 34points #6 Sam Teoh 22points and #8 Jason Chew 19points. For Div2 #2 Radin 7points, #4 James Looi 6points and #5 Divesh 5points. Congratulations to all who made it to the point chart as well.  They have again proved to produce high quality players from their club.

The leaders of Innebandy!Co would like to thank all players, parents, family and friends who have contributed directly and indirectly to the success of the club

Innebandy!Co congratulates all players

The 3rd IC

watch until the end!

Vision 2012

Vision statement

To be an influencer and a role model (because that was what Jesus did on earth).

What does it mean to be an influencer?

From an online dictionary, it states, “The capacity or power of a person to be a compelling force on or produce effects on the actions, behavior, opinions, of other.”

Why do we want to be an influencer?

A role model can be an influencer but an influencer may not necessarily be a good role model. Influence can be out of admiration or out of fear. Your boss/superior may use their superiority to influence your decision and that may not be your preferred decision. BUT if you have someone you respect, admire and he/she might be the person you want to mirror, then your decision will be influence by him/her out of admiration. =)

How can we be an influencer?

Of course the hard part is how can one be an influencer and a role model? Well, have you all ever heard of this quote? “Foolish people never learn from their mistakes, smart people learn from their mistakes and wise people learn from history”. I think that’s pretty true fact.

The best person we can learn from is none other than Jesus. Do you think He has the traits and characteristics of an influencer and a good role model? Certainly yes!!! He has it because of His lifestyle, it’s not a daily thing, a weekly thing or a once in a while attitude. Its 24/7, every second of the day counts. How you live your life will affect people around you. That’s why we believe in the Inner Circle principle, you impact people around you and you help build your teammates to be more like you (If you’re good at what you do).

Jesus lived a life which is blameless and pure and how can that not be a role model for others? (Hebrews 4:15) This is insane! We learn our second IC from this, ‘Independent Culture’. Do you think Jesus’ mum has to nag Him to read the scriptures and pray every day? I doubt it, He did all this because He loves God and He is of his Father’s business (Luke 2:41-50). He has an objective and He is very focus and determine to achieve it, that is to save all mankind from judgments and that includes giving up His life for you and I. How can it be hard to be influence by someone who gave up his own dear life for you? I would feel inspired and motivated to obey Him because of what He has done for me.

A good role model is one who touches people’s life. That’s why one of the leadership styles we learn in college/university is “Charismatic leadership”. This group of people has what it takes to speak into people’s heart rather than mind. Of course there are many other ways to touch a person’s life.

And last of all, every good role model will have to sacrifice something along the way. It may not be your life like Jesus, but it may be your resources i.e time, money, etc. Giving up things to touch a person’s life may require Insane Courage because you may need to step out from your comfort zone. But it will be worth it at the end of the day. Look at the sacrifice Jesus made, look at the light He brought into the lives of individuals around the world and in our club. Man may fail you as a role model, I failed miserably as one, your parents may fail you, your friends too BUT Jesus will never fail you because He promised in His words that He will never leave you nor forsake you and He will be your helper. (Hebrews 13:5-6).

That is why, what and how we want Innebandiens to be…"an influencer and a role model."

This equation will help one be an influencer and role model. 3ICs + 7LOV = 1 LIV IC & I LOV3 C You should know what it means. =)

My challenge to you; try applying the 3ICs and the 7LOV in your life, doesn’t matter how old you are, what circumstances you’re in, etc because this set of principles are universal and applicable to every aspect/angle of your life. I pray that God will help you to achieve your fullest potential by being an influencer and role model for Him. Be a reflector and be the best you can in everything that you touch or do.

I believe Innebandy!Co together with your partnership will leave a great legacy behind because floorball is not just a game, it’s a new way of life. I’ll see you guys on court.

From the bottom of my heart,

Team Manager
