Karnival Sukan Lancaster 2008


Today is the big day for all Malaysian in the Lancaster as we are having our annual Sports Carnival. Last year we had badminton tournaments for men and ladies, men futsal and 'sukaneka' for kids. This time it is even bigger. We are having the usual 'sukaneka' for kids but the ladies will be competing in futsal and netball tournaments. As for the men, we are having a futsal tournament which includes participation from Islamic Society (2 teams), Chinese Society and University Central Lancashire Malaysian Students Society. We ourselves have two teams to compete in this tournament.

It is a bright but chilly morning and the carnival starts around 9am. I think everyone is enjoying themselves especially when around noon the snow started to fall down! As for the tournament results, the undergraduate ladies won both netball (12-0) and futsal (3-2) by beating their postgraduate sisters. As for the men, Malaysian A only managed to get third placing and Malaysian B in sixth placing. Islamic B won the futsal tournament by winning all their matches.

Afterwards, the undergraduate men asked for a futsal challenge with the postgraduate. Last year they lost 1-5 and they are confident of getting a revenge this time. However, two goals from Wan Huzaini and myself secured yet another victory for postgraduate team even when they managed to get one goal through Sean Chua. Try again next year, kids!
