Quiet before the Storm

It has been a long time since our last post to talk about the team, mostly because it has been a long time since our last official match! We should have started the second phase against the Happy Dragons (3rd in group B) last Week End but with the poor weather, the full sessions of matches was called off. We will now have to find another date for that match. Instead, our first match will be this Friday (May 1)around noon against Nam Wan. They finished third of the group C. The schedule is supposed to go crescendo as we are supposed to play 3rds of groups B and Cs, then seconds, then firsts. If things go well the last 2 matches could be real crackers that would be decisive for the promotion and the title. Before we get there, there is a big week coming as we have 3 matchs within 7 days. We will need to get back quickly into the rythm to face this crucial week. The AKITA training was pretty disturbed over the last few weeks as we lost the benefit of the Mei Foo court, this combined with people travelling means that we only trained a couple of time with the HK national team in the last few weeks. We hope to get some new slot for the training as soon as possible but if anyone has a suggestion of where to train during a week day evening, we are interested. Also, the current freeze on training makes integration of new players more difficult but we are recruiting and the earlier new players come, the better we can organise next year. Additionnaly, there should be new event (HK cup, beach tournament...) which we can enter AKITA into. Let's hope for a spectacular end of the year
