Lets Give It Our Best!!!!

2011-03-18T10:51:00.004+08:00

Meeting place- Seng Kang mrt the bench near to old chang kee
time - 6.45 am.

Thingss to bring tmr
- Green and white pol-ite shirt
- Water
- Fighting attitude

What do you fear? Are u afraid of losing? I don't fear failure."I only fear the slowing up of the engine inside of me which is saying, "Keep going, someone must be on top, why not you?"
When you come down tomorrow, bring a mentality for winning. When you come and see the other players who are bigger in size, or look fierce; never fear by just looking. That is their game face and are u willing to let that bring you down? or are you going to show them your game face. Look at them and think for yourself that you can step over them to a higher level. Winning or losing is not the matter, its how you perform on the field. Losing a game with a lousy performance can be devastating and regreatble while losing it with a great performance is memorable and you would never regret it.

But it is easy to be brave from a safe distance. Once near, you having the disc and they defending, you crumble with fear. Dont look at who is defending you but look for the person behind them who is wanting the disc to progress it on. Dont give up on them, trust them to catch ur disc and lets move up the field together. Like a pack of Lions lets tear down the field on every offence, and roar on every defence. Common RPU can we do it??!!!!

How to prepear your self for tomorrow?
1) Drink lots of water
2) Dont eat fast food
3) Watch lots of frisbee videos to pump ur self up.
4) Think of how you are going to play tmr? Simulate ur game play in ur mind.
5) Have a good night sleep.( Sleep early that is)

With this see you guys tomorrow and my greatest apologeies if I do not perform at optimum but giving my best till i lose part of my leg. Cheers =)

Pump It Up!!!

Training Resumes.

2011-01-03T14:51:00.002+08:00

Guang Zhi Lim
Dear RPU Teammates, Just a little some thing to ask about you all.
UT's are happening all over the semester/ year.
Every time there UT, we'll have to stop our beloved ULTIMATE for a period of time, due to *over excess of studying*?
Training is only 2-3hrs x 2-3 day per week, cant we make it down to the field to improve ourselves/keep ourselves from OVER-rusting?

If you all complain it too tiring, why don't we just cut short the amount of day to train but still keep at least 1 day?

If you have UT on the training days, cant u make it after your UT?
We won't scold you late from being in the air-con room stressing over the question in-front of you.

Lastly, how much commitment can you give to the team?(:

just a little something to share

Hello mateys, based on the above message from Guangzhi, we have decided training will be resume despite the UTs are going on. :) LIKE YAY!!

So this week training will be on Wednesday and Thursday (5th and 6th Jan 2011)

I hope to see everyone! Lets train hard for IVP and be stronger as a team. :)

Cheers,

Joa

Points to take note.

2010-11-03T19:11:00.003+08:00

1)Once you get the disc, try to get it off of you as soon as possible. Do not hold on to it for too long. Once you see an opening make the right choice and put it. Do not waste your stalls.

2)Do a leading pass to your next player- don’t make him stop and turn around half way and causing a turn over. If you know that the catcher cannot run fast, make the disc float when you throw.

3)Always look at the person and throw.

4)If you know your player cannot jump, throw a low one to the person.

5)Decision making!!!!- a good decision made will cause forward play. A bad one might cause a turn over and a loss of point.

6)Never lose the disc at the end-zone.

7)When you get the disc and there is a marker on you, relax and look around for your options. Do not panic.

8)If you throw a disc, make sure you THROW IT WELL!

9)If you ask for the disc, make sure you CATCH IT!

For the next training, each bad throw you make, you will do 10 throws with the person you are throwing it to.

For bad catches, you would catch 10 disc thrown by 10 different people.

So be prepared and come with a mind to do BETTER!

See you next training

30 Oct scrimmage is CONFIRMED!

2010-10-19T15:17:00.002+08:00

hello all! :)

Welcome to the new semester!

upcoming scrimmage details w my friends. let's call them Marks & Spencer for now. Spencer is the captain and there is a team player called Mark. I think they are coming up with a team name soon, I will update all of you. :)

DATE: 30 OCT, Saturday
Time: 1 - 4pm
Venue: RP soccer field

Pls note:

Attendance is COMPULSORY. they have 24 players coming down that day, do your best for RPU!
Please invite alumni players like Bo Lang down for the game as well.
It's gonna be a friendly match. Heard they are training hard for it and learning the rules of an actual game as they usually play for leisure. so, you guys must train and shine forth for RPU. It is always good to have competitions so only then you learn new stuff.
Rem to wear your team jerseys!! the short sleeve one. love that jersey very much!

I was very happy to hear about grab, huck, score and that all of you put your best foot forward to win 2 games. Most importantly, you guys enjoyed each other's company on an otherwise hot sweltering Saturday. And then again, you brave the merciless sun last Saturday at ECP. It was so insanely hot and hazy but it was nice to see everyone cooperating and helping out at the event, laughing, having a good time, tossing disc, although there were hiccups earlier in the day.

Anyway just want to share something with you guys that I always believe. There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. So get out there and let yourself learn some of what life wants to teach you. be it new skills during frisbee trainings or in class :)

cheers!
Elaine

You can do so by joining us this October! Participate in the Frisbee Open to enjoy a fun-filled experience, while contributing to the RP Needy Student Fund.
Attractive prizes to be won!

Details are as follows:

Venue - East Coast Park

This event is open to all members of Team Republic and friends.
Please complete the attached registration form and submit it to Sebastian @ 94433@myrp.edu.sg

Registration closes on 8 Oct 2010

This event is brought to you by Office of Student and Graduate Affairs and Ultimate Frisbee, in collaboration with the Singapore Paintball Series.

I believe most of you have received this exact email in your school's webmail. However since RPU is helping out in this event. We only can and have to send 1 team to participate. Most preferably the juniors to gain more experience. Most of the seniors are needed to help out in the event on the day itself. I would highly encourage those who want to play to form a team yourselves asap. However we will go through the team first to see if any of you are needed to help out in the event.

I would recommend Kathlyn, Yuxiang, Alex and a few others (which i cannot think of now) to take this opportunity to gain more experience. :)

The team have to also pay the registration fees like all the team. Please be spontaneous about this event. Thank you!

Cheers,

Joa

Hunks and Babes of RPU,

Winter league 2010 is coming and this year's is called League of Sorcerers and Apprentices.

This year they are opening 2 leagues; Sorcerers League and Apprentices League.
Sorcerers League is for experienced players and looking to play in a more higher and competitive level
and Apprentices League is for those with less than one year of playing experience.

I think most of you suit the Apprentices League since you guys started this February, so let's join this league together :)
Apprentices League also allows us to signup as buddies so don't have to worry not having people you know in the same team.

"Time and Venue
Both leagues will be running concurrently on the Anchorvale Field (where Singapore Opens was held). Both will start at the end of October and end by early December! We are working on the schedule and will provide you with the details once it is confirmed!"

FEE
League registration fee: 25 dollars
UPA membership fee: 20 dollars
League Jersey: 10 dollars for a pair of black and white(optional)

Registration is NOW open and we will close on 13 October Wednesday.
Click HERE for more info and Registration. :)

Guys let's start finding your buddy and we'll discuss & sign up together this thursday during training. :)

Can't wait too see you guys
Sebastian

Campers!!!!

2010-10-05T19:56:00.000+08:00

Firstly I would like to thank all those who have taken their time off to come for the camp. The camp was only a dream to some of us and you guys made it happen.

After the camp, I hope you guys have gotten the spark to start the fire in you. (Burning desire to play hard) Now all you got to do is to keep adding fuel to keep that flame burning in you. It does not matter if you still have not gotten it yet, you still got plenty of opportunity to get it started during trainings. But this depends all on you. Are you willing to do it?

So! I would like to thank all those who have put in their 110% in for trainings and matches. For those who did not give it all, you have to thank Zhong, Ziyuan, Kat, Shamira, Wanni, Geraldine, Charlene and Joa cause they have helped to D and score for the team. I have seen them working hard for the disc. Even though they do drop the disc, they try harder to get it back. When you fall, you get up stronger and learn not to fall again.

For the rest, you guys have also improved, but for the mentioned, they have improved more or should I say, matured in the sport more.

Lets work harder together as a team, family, to play together rather than only a few get the disc and the rest do not. Create your own opportunities on the field. If you do not get the disc, it means that you did not do your cuts properly or your defence is too strong or the handlers option were limited. So do not feel bad. Just make your presence be felt by doing you cuts and trying to D-off the disc.

Lastly, I hope you guys had fun over the past few days and also learnt alot and reflected it back at home. Try to watch more videos to get pumped up.

"If your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it."

Hi guys,

This is Bolang here! I was unable to talk just now at the camp so here I am giving my thoughts to everyone. Firstly, I’m very happy that RPU finally got its chance to have our own camp after more than a year of waiting. I must say that RPU did not start out smoothly in the beginning. When we were just trying to apply for official IG, we had to wait a very long time and all we could do is to train beside the grass patch beside the Koufu canteen. At that period of time, there were only a handful of us. When people walked by, they would laugh at us and think that we’re playing a game for the dogs though some people now still does that but deep down in the heart, we shouldn’t blame them but to laugh back at them because they do not have the chance to stand in the same field as us. Back then, we still dreamt of playing POLITE, IVP, other small competitions and even having a camp in school! But all we thought was that this would be a very far dream.

After RPU managed to get official, there came our ups and downs. We started out training but were being banned for 3 months because of the slippers incident (this is why RPU takes slippers as a very serious issue) and everyone started losing heart. After we were caught with the slippers, the whole team was supposed to leave the sports complex and go home. But Foo was so angry that we went over to the grass patch opposite our school and started running many rounds. While running, I was thinking that maybe we should give up starting this IG because there are so many things we were supposed to follow rules etc. But as I was getting more and more tired, I thought to myself, if I give up now wouldn’t it be a waste because afterall we waited for more than 3 months to put everything together. We started training at Sembawang in the morning during our holidays to prepare RPU for our IVP. But at that time, our discipline was very bad. Imagine having training and only 5 people came including 1 from SP? Soon, IVP came and we came in last. From there, I heard that some people are laughing at us for being so lousy. I was so disappointed with myself, I went home to blog about my feelings on that day; I swore that I will make sure RPU would be back a stronger team in the next competition. The reason I swore that is because I wanted people to look up to RPU for being able to improve over a period of time less than a year.

Then, we had our IG recruitment. This was the point of time many of you guys joined us and hopefully you guys did not regretted making this choice. I was totally shocked when I came down for the first training and saw so many people coming for our training! Most of you guys started out with little or even no knowledge of Ultimate but from your attitude, your eyes, your passion, I was able to see hope for RPU. I swore that I’d never tried training so hard for 3 times a week before you guys came in. From the attendance I saw (though sometimes it sucked but it was good for most of the time!), I was really motivated to come down for every training but year3 stuffs are tying me down somehow.

Slowly, you guys started improving, some at a slower pace and some at the faster one. But I did not give up on you guys; to me, you don’t need to have exceptionally good stamina to run, very good vertical leaps or to be daring that you layout for all the discs, all I need is a person with passion and the attitude willing to learn. Most of the people in RPU have the things which I want and you guys are doing well. Don’t be shy to ask seniors for clarifications if you have any, be it a stupid question. It’s better if you ask stupid question now than asking after you become a senior. Guys, let your passion burn even more and I can assure you that you will definitely improve in an even more rapid pace!

Now moving to the camp today, although I was only at the camp for 3 hrs but I could really feel that joy in each and everyone of you (hopefully uh). In the past to me, having a RPU training camp was just a dream and I could not believe that it actually came true to me. I can assure you guys that I’m really sad that I’m unable to stay over with you all for the camp but I really need to wake up early uh. But no worries, cause RPU is gonna have so many more camps in the upcoming years!

Over the half a year, I had seen how much RPU could grow. How friendships/relationships could be formed, how can you guys who do not know each other initially be such great friends/teammates! I’m really proud to say that I belong to RPU though sometimes you guys love to do stunts uh. Remember there was a time when we went for a competition I think, all the other team players were busy perfecting their shots and you guys were playing MONKEY! Haha! But this is the part which I love about RPU, we have fun together!

Although some of you guys may regard me as a person who is sibei fierce on the field but then actually I can be very nice ok?!

Lastly, I will take this chance to thank each and everyone of you for staying with RPU all these while and I would definitely like to see our family growing bigger and bigger every year we have a camp. Maybe 3 years down the road we would need 2 agora halls for all our players to sleep? HAHA Okay, may everyone stay strong and continue excelling in Ultimate & not forgetting to concentrate on yours studies when it’s time to k?

Have fun with Ultimate!:)

-Bolang

Smth to share from SPU blog.

2010-09-09T14:55:00.002+08:00

I happen to chance upon this in SPU's blog :

"Just to make some things clear. Trainings are compulsory. It's not a if you can make it you come basis. For this period, unless you are having exams or official classes(normal schooling days) you are expected to be at trainings.

It's "I will be there, unless I can't make it."
not "If I can make it, I'll be there."

& there's this saying -
"If your hand is injured, you can still train up on your fitness
If your legs are injured, you can work on your throws
If your whole body is injured, you can better focus on learning from your teammates.
If you'v the flu, a-little fresh air is good for you.
There's always something for you to do, be it re-filling water or being around to learn." "

- Joel Loo (Captain of SPU)

This goes out to every single member of RPU. We should work hard together to bring RPU to a whole new higher level.

Cheers,
Joa.

Hi mates, I would like to hear from Fabian, Zhong and Ziyuan if you 3 received any confirmation email from the Edge games regarding the registrations of your teams (RPU Green ; White ; Black). It is very important as they might not confirmed us despite me sending them all the indemnity forms and cash payment. As I am not the captain of any team, I do not receive notifications of any changes regarding Edge games.

I will mass txt you guys when the jerseys are ready for collection.

Those who are not selected or taken out, don't be disheartened! There are still many competitions out there! :) Other then POL-ITE, there is also a upcoming competition - Edge Games.

Details of it will be posted up soon. But first I have to know who are the ones that are available to join. As our team consist alot of our muslim friends. It will be their fasting period during the competition. Therefore there might be a shortage of girls and we might not be able to send as much teams to represent RPU.

Note from Ben :)

2010-03-31T12:18:00.000+08:00

Ben Lampard: To RPU

Ben's Notes|Notes about Ben|Ben's Profile

To RPU

Today at 1:27am

To my dearest RPU, IVP is over for now and Teen Games are coming up next. I believe, every single one of you do not like the feeling of losing and getting the last place. Being a new team is not an excuse. Instead, it should be a reason, a reason for all of you to improve on yourselves and train hard.

Everyone should start training up instead of relying on the seniors ( Foo, Bolang and Mithran). Ultimate is a team sport, not a three man show. We should rise as one. This is why you people, my team mates should help each other improve instead of improving individually. Tell your team mates their mistakes and try to correct them. People listening to advises should make an effort to listen and apply it rather than saying ' Aiya, I better than you, no need to listen to you' Listening and then applying wont kill you. Just try it, it might do good for you.

So far, we had 4 scrimmages, 1 against SPU, 1 against SIM, 1 against SMU and one against CJC. We won none of them and the score difference for all 4 scrimmages are quite huge, except for the CJC one. Ask yourself, what went wrong? Where do you need to improve on? and did you put in your 100%? I believe you guys ask your facis for help during lessons when you guys are in doubt. So, Ask your seniors! They are your facis on the pitch. Ask them for pointers for you to improve on! For e.g. Running fast is nothing if you can't read the disc well. Also, trainings are useless if you do not know how to apply them. If you are unsure what are the purposes, ask your seniors, they'll know.

I know some of you guys might have something against each other or some conflicts. But, that's not I want to see. Things like this will destroy the bond between the team. Remember, nobody is perfect. We are a team, we need to accept each other's plus and minus. Instead of demoralising them by these actions, why not encourage them to improve? That will do more good to the team itself. Also, I've realised that our team is not united enough. Usually one group here, one group there. I know we are new and it takes time to bond as one. So I wish to see more bond in RPU when I can go back for trainings. I want to see team spirit! (: Look at the sidelines of NYP, SPU, NPU etc. You guys saw how actives were their sidelines. Cheering the players, giving them directions. Our sidelines were quiet, only few people are shouting. That will demoralise the whole team. This is why team spirit is important, because we are one big family!

So PEOPLE! ASK YOURSELF ONE THING, DO YOU GUYS WANT TO IMPROVE AND WIN?!
Show me that you want to win by winning the upcoming Teen Games!

Win the Teen Games and everyone will receive a treat from me! Go for it people, Go for it!

Improve yourselves people, I hope to see improvements in every single one of you when I can attend the trainings. I want to see better throws and better cuts.

People, you guys need to be aware that YOU have a RPU jersey. When the semester starts, YOU will be seniors already. YOU need to show your juniors how Ultimate is being played the RPU way. Good Luck people! Every single one of YOU plays a part in the team.

Regards,
Ben

Hi guys,

This blog has been kinda dead for the past few weeks. I believe all of you are busy preparing for the coming competition tomorrow. Below are some of the things to take note when you are coming tomorrow,

Where-We will make the meeting time 7am at Sengkang MRT station. Do not be late, for people in Sembawang, you may want to meet up with the rest of us at 6am.

What-The things to bring will be tons of water, $10 registration fee, IC or Ez-link card for clarification and most importantly YOURSELF, YOUR AGGRO, YOUR DREAMS, YOUR FIGHTING SPIRIT.

Okay now guys as you are reading this post, please recall back how much sweat you had lost, how much blood you had bleed, how much meals you had forfeited, how much anger were in you when you did drills for near to 2 hours, how much joy you've had & lastly how happy were you when you finished training and you felt proud of doing something right.

From here, I want you to bring all your PASSION, LOVE, AGGRESIVENESS and what ever you can think of to help you do well in the field tomorrow.

For the rest of RPU who wants to support your fellow teammates, the event will start at 9am. The location is at anchorvale field.

Have a good night rest and put up a good fight tomorrow!

Training time

2009-08-23T21:43:00.000+08:00

Hi guys,

I believe most of your UT3 are ending real soon right? So i would like
all of you to get ready to gear up and be both mentally and physically prepared for the upcoming trainings which would be help during the holidays man!

So guys, we had decided to hold our trainings in Sembawang where the field is so much better when compared to the one beside Koufu, this have less lobangs here and there. There is a provision shop just opp the field but I would recommend you guys to bring your own water as the price of drinks there is not cheap at all.

Hence, I would like to encourage you guys to come for trainings held every:

When: Monday, Wednesday & Thursday
Where: Sembawang (Pls logon to http://zerodisc.wordpress.com/ and click
under Training information on the right hand side of the page to view
where is the field.)
Time: 9am till most probably 1pm
Things to bring: what you would usually bring for trainings.

Anw, guys the first training will be on 31st August. Please do take note.

Hope to see you and bringing more friends for training too! Please do not come with a empty stomach and halfway through you would like to stop training because you did not eat, neither do I want to see anyone coming with a full stomach.

Cheers,
Bolang

2009-08-17T14:33:00.000+08:00

Hi guys,

its me Bolang or u may know me as Bobby posting. Hope that all of you had enjoyed the trainings through the past weeks and as some of you may know, there are some competitions coming up like Grab Huck Score organised by SMU and also IVP. So I would like to encourage all of you to bring your friends along for training. It would be perfect if we are able to get 25 players by then and being able to participate in these competitions, nevermind about the rankings we get. Afterall, we hope to improve eventually.

Trainings will be ceased for the UT week. Further training plans will be posted on this blog, so please come in often to check for updates.

Ohya! Please be reminded that we will have a friendly match with Singapore Polytechnic during the holidays, it will be a good experience for all as they belong to a higher level of the Ultimate. Be sure to call along your friends for they may be interested to join after watching the match & also be prepared yeah!

Cheers.
