Raffles Hall 1 - 3 TH

Score was actually 1-1...but in true raffles fashion (i admire the way we hold true to our values), we sorta allowed the opposition to come back to take the match.

Ah...raffles...how many times are we going to let this happen?

if anyone cares, my wisdom tooth is healing just fine.

I know you all don't care.
Neither do I care whether you care or not....

btw. a banana is a true berry. a strawberry is not.

Raffles Hall 4 - 2 KR

Safar scored a chip...blah blah....

forgot most of it....probably due to my inactiveness in training and matches.

i had to pluck a wisdom tooth on that day.

RH 5 - 3 Eusoff Hall

Playing against Eusoff's reserve team, RH managed to notch their first hall friendly win this season! Goals by foreign import Jeff, non hall members Safar and Muru and another by team captain Jerome made sure we ended the match on a high.

However, the blog name actually refers to our IHG wins...in which case, as it has been for the past 5 years...still stands. We have never won a single IHG match for that period. In fact, Ripley's Believe It Or Not Asia has offered to give us a slot on the show.

Their tagline?

"RH hasn't won a single IHG game in 5 years --- Unbelievable? Believe it."

On a much sadder note....I think I'm the only one reading this since I sincerely doubt anyone else actually comes here anymore, but I always believed in keeping a record of our matches...you know...just in case.

So if you still are reading this (you poor thing...obviously nothing better to do with your life), please give me a little love and a small shoutout will ya? Much appreciated.

SHEARES 1 - 1 RH

Goal by Shengjie. I wasn't there....so that's all I have.

If I were though, it probably wouldn't read 1-all.

Tribute to Semi-Finalists 2009/2010...

For many years, we have suffered...

Deemed as minnows...

Mocked...

Ridiculed.

Well, as of last year, Team RH soccer has risen like a Phoenix from the ashes...

This --- this is a tribute to the semi-finalist of the 2009/2010 soccer IHG.

This is a sign of things to come.

This is a warning to the other challengers that Raffles is on the comeback and there is a grave out there with your name on it.

Will the feat be emulated again this year? It remains to be seen.

Yet, the gauntlet has already been thrown down. Team of 10/11...do YOU have what it takes to be better than the team of last year?

Your seniors watch in anticipation...

The start of a brand new season!

Hello fellow Rafflesians!

It is a brand new start to the IHG season and the best place to catch all the updates, gossip and transfer news is here --- at Raffles Hall's most popular yet surprisingly unknown blog!

For this year, we have a promising batch of new players coming in...as well as the out processing of several players who have served the hall for a long time but not contributed in any significant way....players like Jack, David, Azfar, Safar and Rajiv..

Oh well, their presence isn't really missed.

As it is, the hall soccer team has in its new leadership Mr Jerome Seow....better known as Ms Jerome Seow to some.

And of course, the hall fought hard to retain the services of a certain year 4, one whom they deemed good enough to propel this team into the new era of a WINNING raffles hall team.... After much controversy, they managed to extend my contract for a year...

Raffles Hall....are you RHeady?

Hardcourt Lights.

......The hardcourt lights now switches off at 11am instead of 12midnight.

This is a travesty.

No wonder Raffles Hall's reputation as a hall is where it is. I'm quite sure this doesn't occur in any other halls. Guys, we can't take this lying down...

"

Dear Residents,

Due to players not switching off the lights at the basketball court after play and wasting electricity, the tower lights will switch off automatically at 11pm instead of 12am.

If electricity continues to be wasted in this manner, lights will be switched off permanently.
