PMC Soccer Fellowship Updates!

Hi everyone, trust that all of you are looking forward to the coming long weekend. Soccer Fellowship has come quite a way since we kick-off this fellowship about a year ago. Over the last couple of weeks, the Committee has been in conversation about how to move on from here and make this fellowship meaningful for everyone. We'd like to update you on some of the things we've decided on.

PMC Soccer Fellowship Sessions
These will continue to take place twice a month and will essentially be SOCIAL in nature. That means, no over zealous competitiveness, referees and 'winning at all costs'. However, there is still a need to have some rules and structure for safety and playability, hence the need to limit sides to 11 players. There will also be emphasis on sharing God's Word through devotions/prayer and building sportsmanship.

PMC Soccer Team
The Soccer Team is essentially COMPETITIVE in nature. This group has grown over the last year and has taken part in friendlies and a tournament. Coming up soon will be a league between 4 Methodist Churches. To ensure a certain level of commitment to improve physically and technically, regular training sessions will commence in the near future (apart from Soccer Fellowship sessions). Players who are keen to join the Team will have to attend the training sessions first. Gleen See Toh is the Captain of the team and will be involved in player selection and tactics during matches.

Other Activities
There will be other activites organised during the course of the year like PMC Church Cup 2007 and going to watch S-League matches when the season starts.

We appreciate your support over the last year and look forward to having you join us regularly, whether it be for Soccer Fellowship sessions or a friendly match against another team.

Have a blessed Chinese New Year!
