To all Year 1s and 2s

Excellence

Juniors,

You've been training for a long time now, some one whole year, some going on strong to 2 years. All the seniors are expecting you to improve as fast as possible during this holiday. Aim high at the better seniors, follow the good examples and remember the bad. Learn to ask questions, and no seniors will turn their backs on you.

Up to now, improvements are made at the speed of ant-crawl.

Push Harder

Push Faster

Push Your Limits

Challenge Yourself

Never settle, be ambitious, you'll never approach anything like excellence if you settle for mediocrity. Nothing is more sterile or lamentable than a man content to live within yourself and not dream further.


Look at your teammates next to you, look at the better ones. Do not be content that they're playing on your team.

Challenge them

Be the one that other look up to and be the one they challenge. To those who are already better then most, the trip up to the top probably isn't easy, its even tougher to stay on top. Never forget how good it feels to be on top, and always push yourself to stay there.

You have to fight for everything-For power, for position, whatever you want to achieve.

Never give in.
Never give in.
Never give in.
Never.
Never.
Never.
Never.

Trainings are a perfect time to learn, try and commit mistakes. Every mistake you commit, correct them. Listen. Watch. Try.

Do not wait till competition to try, watch and listen.

Seniors have achieved this much for polo.

Achieve the same, maintain, better yet, out-perform.

You represent us in the future, don't disappoint us.

Prove the people who discriminated you wrong.

Train hard.
