nynb c' div! tomorrow's our match against nanhua! i know like, there is bound to have a bit of nervousness. eat it away! i don't care! tomorrow we must step on the court, with nothing else but confidence. i believe none of us will want to leave the court with any regrets. like what tricia said, winning is not everything. it's the effort we put in. i agree with her. but if we put in our very 100% , all of us, tomorrow, we'll win. we will, all of us know it. we wont want our journey to end here. prove it wrong to people out there who thinks we're not good. prove that we can get into the nationals. don't be stressed. don't be afraid. we're one whole team. no matter what happens in the end, we'll forever be c' div 09, and that's no doubt a very true fact. let's just strive to the very hard till the end of the game tomorrow! everybody! let's not waste even a single second, time is precious on court, like what seniors said. when a team needs to win, it's the 100 % of every single person on court. if only some people are putting in their 100%, it's not going to work. let's drive for every single ball and snatch for balls as though they're our lives. and yes it is, it is the life of our c division netball journey. tell yourselves, we can do it. so what if they're nanhua? remember what coach taught us on tuesday. use those well. let coach, teachers, and everybody else see the flow we once had during the jurong west game. okay? we regretted the fact we're nervous which caused us the be super stressed up and lost the mgs game. so for this nanhua game, take it slow. man man lai. it's better if you take it slow and get the ball in, rather than you so kanchiong and we lose the ball. every centre pass equals to one goal. tomorrow is going to be a tough fight, but as what i always say, nanyang girls never ever say die. N-E-V-E-R. so let's try our best tomorrow. step on court with confidence. step off court with no regrets. let's not say IF we lose, let's just say, we'll put everything, every single energy of ours in. they're playing area defence, so watch where all of us are throwing okay. tomorrow will be a very important match. let's not care about the outcome, and enjoy ourselves on court, let's show the love for netball. nanyang's netball strength is not to be underestimated.
jiayous nanyang netball c division two oh oh nine! we can do it. trust yourself, trust your teammates. let's hang on to the very end of the game, where we'll leave the courts with no regrets. don't let the things that happened in mgs happen again. defenders, midfielders, shooters and every single person in nynb. jiayous :D i know we can do it. i know we can. :D and remember the very very hyper and optimistic liyi words? we can do it. so what if they're nanhua or whatever whatever school! calm down, relax, and don't kanchiong for tomorrow's match. catch the ball properly. throw properly. and show, what do we usually do during trainings. calm, composed and smooth flow down the court. i believe the defenders and i will definitely do our utmost best in defending balls. i promise for myself. i really do. so trust your teammates, trust yourselves, trust nynb. we have the skill and ability to win this game, as long as we keep calm and composed. offer for the right time and remember not to crowd the entire centre third! i don't know what else to say, but seriously nynb. we all must have faith in ourselves! we must :D extend our journey to a long long way to wonderland :D! jiayous nynb. <3

Hi all :))))
Today, we played against MGS. However, we need to keep this in mind: It is not the score that matters-but the way we play the game as well as the amount of fighting spirit we actually display.
Inside each and everyone of us, there is a flame. As soon as we step onto court, we 'become' the court and the flame inside everyone of us nanyang netballers should ignite. It should ignite because we long for the ball. It should ignite because we want to make our school proud. It should ignite because we
WANT to play!
Never ever, should we step onto court and have the mentality that we would lose. In fact, we should embrace the challenge and step right up and face it head on. The opponents are trying to extinguish the flame in our heart/soul. We are trying to add coal/charcoal/wood/books/flammable things/wind(?) to the fire instead. Why? That is because we want to further brew the flame, further unleash the fighting spirit that lay dormant in us for so long!
Remember,
when you believe, somehow you will....there can be miracles, when you believe!Throughout the whole game, we must continue believing; continue fighting..
FIGHT like you have never fought before! Because, when you believe, somehow you will overcome ALL obstacles, and achieve victory like Moses.
Always remember: THERE CAN BE MIRACLES! [otherwise why would there even be such a word?]
I am sure that all of you guys WANT to get into the nationals right?[I mean, that's why we have been training] Furthermore, it is the last time we would be training together. We should cherish it and remember-whatever you have in your hands right now, never let it go so easily...you may never get it back again. Therefore, I seek all of your support, NYNB, to make the last few moments of our time together memorable and to make it worthwhile. Never forget that once you have given all your best, the word
'regret' therefore ceases to exist in your vocabulary.
Last but not least, let's prove all those who don't believe in us wrong! Let's prove to them we very much WANT to get into the nationals because we are the one and only
NYNB CDIV 0'9 . DIVIDED WE FALL, TOGETHER WE CONQUER! NOTHING CAN CHANGE WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE ARE AND WHERE WE COME FROM. TOGETHER WE CAN DO GREAT THINGS AND TOGETHER, WE CAN SUCCEED. MGS was but a warm-up. The real game begins only now. Jiayous for NANHUA's match and I believe we can win. [I know it.] -Ulanda :]

NYNB! I think we have all come to a point where we all know that winning isn't everything. Ofcourse, winning gets you through to the next rounf & extends your netball journey. But there're some things that we have to sort out. What's the whole point of fighting hard, and even going through this competition? It's not just winning. It's about coming together as a team to put all your efforts of hard training, sweat, blood and tears and achieve something together as a team. The problem is not with your opponents. I don't know how you guys were feeling but i sincerely feel that all of you shouldn't let your opponent affect all of you! :D Let's MGS' match just be a lesson learnt for all of you all right? It's over, and there are many things that we can learn from it. Nanhua's match is not going to be easy, but you guys know aall that you have with you. It's experience, teamwork, and that undying fighting spirit that's most important! It's not letting yourself anf your team down. Nanyang, you know you can play a good game of netball. You don't have to be intimidated, or affected by your opponents, you just have to be more careful. & not only watch your player, but watch your opponent too! Esp for Nh's match if they play area defense. Nanyang let's forget about today's match, and think about how you're going to make sure you DUI DE QI ZI JI on your next match! NATIONALS is what you guys aim for. Make your dream come true. Also, I hope none of you feel demoralized after today's match okay. It's not whether you can do it or not, it's whether you want to. And as a team, we all have a part to play. I will never forget what Yunting said to me last year, quite some time ago, she said“You’re not a loser, it’s not your fault, because if it is, we are all losers, and we’re all to blame, because we’re a team.” A team means understanding each others weaknesses and strengths and helping them bring out their strengths to bring the team far. Please do not think that there is only a "FLICKER OF HOPE" in winning MGS or NH. WE CAN DO IT. & you really have to drill that into your head. Rmb today's match and NUS High's match. Your nerves let to you playing a game u regretted. & it was really painful to see all of you like that. So as liyi and lingting said, Jurong west' match really shows us how a mentality can prove the game's outcome for teams with equal strengths. Being not able to help you guys really feels very... ugh i dont know? But i trust that all of you are going to wake up and do NYNB proud! Because you're NYNB C DIV 2009. as a team, you can okay? JIAYOU JIAYOU JIAYOU. really, jiayou! Hope that all of you are willing to give your 100% in every training, friendly, half court and everything. One day all your hardwork will pay off! I love you guys okay! No matter what the outcome is for the remaining matches, I hope you guys can step off court & be happy because you left the court and played the game with no regrets. This journey has been long, and all of you have been through alot together & together, YOU ALL CAN GET PAST THIS! JIAYOU NANYANG. REALLY, i'll always be there cheering for all of u [=
& as the seniors said,
treasure everything u have now okay.
do this for your teammates,NYNB
yourself
& for people who strongly support and believe in you!
also to those who don't believe in you. PROVE THEM WRONG. :D show them what you're made of. show them the unbreakable bonds and unwavering friendship and will to fight on.

dedicated to :
nynb c'div 09today may not have been the best game played.
perhaps even the worst game played.
the gameplay was super messy.
everybody was crowding.
but throw away all these memories of losing to MGS,
throw away all the sadness & regret.
look forward to nanhua's match on thursday.
let's enter the court no longer with ''we'll die'' thinking,
but with, ''we're as strong as them. we have equal chance to win'' thinking.
also,
let's not be nervous. let's bring the ball down slowly.
nervousness only creates stress.
nervousness only does harm.
if we got into the quarter finals,
we're the same standard as them.
we're on the same level as them, for now.
so throw away or eat up all your butterflies in your stomach.
bring balls down and catch balls properly like how we usually do during trainings.
defenders intercept and time jumps too.
like what chuanling senior said,
c div is the best moments of your entire netball life.
this seasons will be the last time we'll ever be playing with
tiffany, satay, ching ching & melissa.
even though they joined us not long ago,
the bond is already there.
so do all of us want to leave the c div'09 netball court with regrets?
after this seasons we'll no longer be an entire team.
after this seasons we'll no longer train with the sec ones.
after this seasons we'll no longer be this team as we are now.
cherish our moments together.
just two more matches towards the semi-finals.
is quarter-finals the only goal we have till?
is it that we reached this goal that we've given up and no longer try hard?
i believe not.
nanyang girls never says die.
so what if they're MGS? nanhua?
we're nanyang. we can do what they can.
put in all our efforts and train hard during trainings.
make c div'09 proud.
make coach proud.
make nanyang proud.
jiayous nynb c div 09 :D
remember the match vs jurong west.
the flow was so much better compared to today's.
let us find back that flow.
that very nice & smooth flow.
we fought against them easily.
confidence, not complacency.
let us bring this confidence to the rest of our matches.
let's step into the court,
with a determined heart.
and determined soul.
do our best and fight for the balls.
let the teachers see the fighting spirit which died down during the mgs game.
we're a team,
and forever will be one, in our hearts.
nynb c div'09, we can do it.
believe in ourselves :D
take the court with nothing else, but confidence as a team. -lingting :]

Hello nynb=D first time i'm posting here.
For monday, I hope everyone will step into court with a different feeling than the NUS match. I know coach said what, that day we were very calm and composed an the flow was there and everything, but I think we should all know in our hearts that that day was our worse play in all the matches so far because we were too nervous. We could have easily won them. We SHOULD have the same feeling as the jurong west match. Because it was only there where we felt that ai ya we're going to win an we still put in our best and came out with a very good result. THAT was where we were calm and composed.
Who cares if it's MG. We're NANYANG! We can do it. We must do it. We must prove to the school and everyone else that we are NOT just some little junors or girls just playing for the fun of it. WE are NYNB C DIV 09:D and that makes us special. I don't think we want this to be the last round. I believe we can.
