touch footie + love package from SG
Tuesday, January 20, 2009 @ 8:04 pm
decided to join my colleagues for touch footie at the botanical gardens near our office this evening, simply because I thought I should start the year with a regular exercise and also building up rapport with my workmates :D
I had no idea what was touchie, although Eug did gave me a 5min crash course the night before. But it went pretty well after all!
Basically, touch footie comprises of 2 teams (up to 14 players altog I read) and each team will have a chance to take the ball and pass to your team members either backwards or from the side. Once touched by the opposing team, you have to stop at your 'mark' point, tap our foot and either continue to make a dash for the finishing point or pass the ball sideways or backwards.
A point is scored if you successfully dodged the opponents and place the footie at the finishing line!
I had a chance to pass some balls but was happy that I can see the fun side of my colleagues. There were 1 partner, 2 directors, 2 senior analysts, 3 analysts and 1 trainee. We all had fun albeit most of the time i was catching my breath (lack of exercise!!!)
and Eug picked me up for Super Cheap Tuesday pizza from Eagle Boys (it's $4.50 for a large one every Tues!) and I was welcomed by a love package from my dearest darling hOi!!!!
Thankew HOI!!! You made my night ;)
