Training Camp Report

The last few weeks have been rather busy for JUFC. Lots of football, team bonding and the highlight of the month was an overseas training trip to the Sunny island of bintan.

As depicted in the preceding photos. A selection of 10 JUFC members made the arduous journey aboard Indera Bupala to the JUFC satelite training grounds in Bintan. Participating players endured a gruelling 48hrs of training that left them spent, exhausted and burnt by the time they returned to singapore.

Some of the training activities enjoyed by the members on this retreat were:


Extensive Nocturnal Liver Training - Courtesy of DFS Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal
Capsize Drills (Relevance still TBD) - Ambrose and Gan earned Special merits for their exemplary performance
Saltwater Lung Treatment - An invigorating and rejuvenating Session, tailor-made for Andrew
Reflexes Training - We Extend our thanks to the Million crabs who offered their support
Tactical Water Muscle Toning - Also Known as water polo in some Ancient Cultures
Agility Training - Footage of this segment can be Seen below
Tackle riding - This exercise was aimed at Ansel; the bane of defenders. However, the coaching staff concludes that back-flipping is not one of his stronger Fortes.

And needless to say, there was lots and lots free flowing beach football. With A*din consistently giving outstanding performances, cutting out passes and creating plays, all with minimal dancing and confusion. The native's return to the familiar sun, sea, and air of his birthplace seemed to bring out the best in our Star of Stars.

All in all, the adminstrators of JUFC believe it was a fruitful training camp, and the Board has decided to organise more such expeditions in the Future. Also, Negotiations are also underway for the adoption of the "Nirwana Lake Komodo Dragons" as official Club Mascots.

To all our Members, have a Good a Monday.
