Sportsfest

Last Sunday (June 5, 2005), CYM together with the adults had their sports fest at the ROMVI gym. It was really fun and out of the three events that I joined I won two. Free throw shooting and darts. The free throw shooting consisted of five participants two youth and three adults. We were asked to shoot as many hoops as we can in the span of five minutes, the adults as expected moved slow than me and Jonathan but they converted and Jonathan the other youth just dropped basket after basket, last two minutes and we only had 18 points but the shots just kept on pouring in and with 30 seconds left we had 24 points but Jonathan and I banged 2 points each which gave us the edge at 28 points. The yellow team threatened our lead but they were 2 points short.

In darts I competed with Kuya Ed who was the representative of the yellow team. It was years since I really played darts in Arvyn’s garage, but the good thing is that I still have it in me. It wasn’t the usual dart game that you need to hit a certain area three times to close the number it was hit-once-close-the-number. I led the tournament with 3 numbers ahead of Kuya Ed. They did not require us to hit the bulls eye. As the darts event ended our team leader, Tita Linda approached me and said, we are the over all champions.

WE TOOK HOME THE TROPHY!

Before the awarding ceremonies, we played basketball. I was bumped from behind by Jomel, the hell the bump was not that hard but I had to be substituted and I left grimacing in pain. It was really painful, as if a ligament was torn on my shoulder, that’s what you get for not playing for almost a year. My shooting skills were still there but the other essentials… well I still need to look for them… it was still there the last time I played. 2 years ago.
