Beach volleyball n chillin' at KM8 Sentosa SAT 25th Aug 1PM

Post by bigdaddi » Mon, 20 Aug 2007 10:09 am

It seems a lot of you probably had way too much play time at volleyball that im still hearing a lot about injuries, cuts and bruises!

Shall i cancel and give you guys a week break?

Yeah right!!!! Volleyball is on this weekend, rain or shine!!!! Ive got 3 more sessions to plan till i go home so get tight with those who play so that you can arrange amongst yourselves to play in my absence. Nearer the time, ill leave a open thread with no date but just to say volleyball is one very single week and that should suffice till i get back.

Ok, players ...

Me,
Debs,
Bobby & co,
Fraser,
McDonalds,
Seafishes,
Keith

Those on the injured/sick list and may play ...

Maria,
Sudip

Sorry I won't be playing this week because;
a) I think I ought to let the skin on my toe grow back first before I scrape it off again :o and
b) I don't actually have time this Sat anyway! :(

I'm coming too. btw, looks like we have inadvertently created 3 groups - players, chillers and injured. more and more people tend to move from the first one to the last one... :?
Perpetual optimism is annoying. It is a sign that you are not paying attention.

Hey BigDaddi,

I will be there, rain or shine! Actually prefer the rain over the scorching sun rays anyday!

At least i wont get so badly burnt when it rains, and also i dun have to do the red indian dance (right foot down, left foot up, left foot down, right foot up) to avoid the soles of the feet getting burnt (when in stationery position) lol

:shock:

Well, i think its cos people are getting better at the game and gaining more confidence so theyre more likely to injure themselves as they start throwing themselves around the court!

Thats one way of keeping you mobile! Anyway, remember the sand is only hot if you come early ... aint so hot at 5pm! LOL!

Hey bigdaddi, you can remove me from the injured list. My bruises are almost healed and my cold is finally improving, so I intend to play. I might buy some wrist guards mind you.

Thanks Bigdaddi.
The heel/ankle is getting better but don't intend risking VB till next week, plus hectic travel plans over the next 2 weeks.

Hoping to be back in action soon.

Hi -
New to Singapore and the forum. But really enjoy beach volleyball. What kind of format do you play? 2 on 2? Is it open for anyone to join? Any skill level ok?

Thanks,

Jak

Hi mate!

Its normally full team of 6v6 but the numbers all depending on availability of numbers or the team size of challengers that we get. Beginners to experts so look for a bunch of us at the covered table right next to the court! Oh, we go regardless of rain or shine!
