the Team is taking shape

With the tournament drawing near, the training intensified. The committed players came again on 28.8.10 for another round of training. This time around, they came in full gear as instructed by their coaches. Thanks guys for obeying the instructions. You guys showed commitment and great character.

We have 4 new players joining our team and they are Isaac (16y.o), Adrian (13y.o), John Lim (11y.o) and Aaron (10y.o). They came for the training and they gave their best. This is the kind of people we want to have in our team. We want people who are committed and willing to give their very best. 

After the usual warm-up exercises, we had the drill followed by a short game. We divided ourselves into Team Ace and Team Best to continue to practice on the system taught by Coach Kuw Fou. It was tough having to discipline ourselves to play by a system but it was worth it. 

 

Our team is taking shape. We are becoming more and more like a team. Our boys showed commitment and they really gave their best. Bravo eHawk and Be the Best!

Training with Coach Wong Kuw Fou

Coach Wong Kuw Fou was a former national player who played alongside the greats like Dato' Soh Chin Aun, Santokh Singh, the late Mokhtar Dahari and Arumugam in the 1970s and 80s of the glory days of Malaysian football.

Date: 21.8.10. It was an honor for me to meet Coach Wong. His training style is totally different as he focuses more on defensive tactics as I noticed. He gave us a few drills, for example, heading the ball, passing in a triangular shape, controlling the ball and last but not least shooting.

On the other hand, he is also very efficient and disciplined and does not like people to come in late for training. He told us that the team should come in 15 minutes earlier. Why? Because we need to do our own warm up first before the actual training starts.

With Coach Wong and our qualified coaches training us, I am sure eHawk will excel in the game and be ready for the tournament in no time.

the 1st training

On July 17, 2010, a group of 9 youths from Kota Damansara gathered at a field in Kelana Jaya to begin their journey of playing football under the banner of Everton Hawk.

We are not a football academy. We are a community football club set up to provide quality training to the players. One of our missions is to coach players beyond football. We adopt a holistic approach to develop the players through whole life coaching. Life values and skills are imparted through coaching sessions to develop them beyond football physically, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually and socially.

The training was great and tiring. Together with other players from Everton Kelana Jaya, we were trained by Coach William, an experienced player and coach recognized by FAM and Everton. With this type of great quality training, we certainly will improve our game.

We are looking forward to a great time with Everton Hawk to become a great player as well as a great person for our families, communities and nation.
