[Journal 3] Fong-Chu Cup

There was a competition this weekend named Fong-Chu Cup (瘋竹盃). Its main sponsor was the Mechanical Engineering Department of Chiao-Tung University. And this exciting sport competition inclued many kinds of ball competitions, such as volleyball, baseball, basketball, soccer and so on. This cup was held for the university in Hsinchu, and there were many universities and departments attending this competition.

Now I want to share with you about the competition of volleyball. We (FFL of Tsing-Hua)competed with two teams from Shinchu University of Education. After watching seniors playing against our rivals, I learned that happy atmosphere and momentum are the important key to win the games. When players were playing on the court, the shouting and cheering of the cheerteam near the court indeed had a good effect on rising players' morale. And being united could also ceated great sense of playing.

After two days' competition, we finally won the fourth place!! That is just the wondreful example of the saying: practicing makes perfect. We practiced playing volleyball twice a week and 3 or 4 hours for each time. Getting this good result is an encouragement to all of us that if we practiced hard, everything is possible!
