| Wira Tangkis at Perak Badminton Academy |
Today, a double misfortune
befell on the boys. Today, Wira Tangkis had planned a trip to Ipoh for a
friendly with Perak Badminton Association.
Ryan woke me up at 6am convulse and quivering all over as he had a bad
stomach all night and had just vomited. However, he felt better after that but
during our two hour long journey to Ipoh, he vomited again. His bout proved too
much for him and finally had to sit out on his match.
However, we still have Aaron
left to play, or so we thought. He
started his match against the like of Anson Cheong and was going blow for blow.
As the match progressed, Aaron’s game deteriorated. In the middle of the second
set, we noticed he was limping slightly. In the end of it, he lost in straight
sets. We didn’t heed him as he was left to rue in his defeat.

Having known Aaron being the
type who suffers in silence, my wife being the more attentive one by her fair
nature decided to take Aaron to a chiropractioner to examine his troubling knee.
It was found that the internals of his
knee was swollen. Only then we realised he must have picked this injury up during
the Young Apologist tournament last Sunday. He was to be rested for another
three days.
Reluctantly I broke the news
to the head coach. He fully understood the situation and urged the boys to be fully
rested. A double blow like this was
indeed unwelcomed and this lost time incident would
mean the boys would have to lose a weekend worth of training.
