I bought my new toy at the IT Show 2 days ago and was eager to test it out. Today was also the first time the Secondary 1 players joined in the combined training.

This would require the combined effort of both the coach and the seniors. Hopefully, they will be able to take up this responsibility well.

The goalkeeper is indeed a very important player in the team.
