MSSM Golf Tournament 2009


The residents of Danau Kaseh had such an exciting day yesterday! Adlan, Hakim & Adlina participated in the Majlis Sukan Sekolah-Sekolah Negeri Melaka (MSSM) Golf Tournament & Papa & Mama (kay-poh as usual) became their caddies!! Heehee :)

Our kids have been going for golf lessons with Coach Ariffin for the past one month. After just 10 lessons, we were surprised when he informed us that he intended to register all of them for the MSSM Tournament. Not to compete to win, he said, but just to expose them to the competition as the experience would be good. Unfortunately, Anas didn't qualify to enter as he has not reached the age of 7 yet - he cried when we told him he couldn't go :( Amongst the 4 of them, Anas is the most excited about the game right from the start! Well, there's always next year for Anas..

Anyway, Adlan, Hakim & Adlina were registered to compete in Medal B Group (for students competing in MSSM for the 1st time). Papa & Mama were so excited (this is an understatement). We took the day off to share the experience with them. 

The Player & her Caddy :)

I wanted to help Adlina with her golf bag (kay-poh mom takut her little girl penat & panic.. heehee..). Papa assisted the boys & wanted to guide them as it was their first time playing on the golf course.. We woke up early and reached AKCC at 7 am - the 4th to register - nampak sangat over-excited. It was still dark! Haha :D

And guess what? Adlina won 2nd place for the Under-10 Girls category!! YAAYYY!! She played so well for a first-timer! Kay-poh mom is so, so proud beyond words!! Adlan & Hakim did fine too but they played with tougher boys who have been playing the game for at least 2 years or so. I'm sure they will do better next year! Congratulations to Adlan, Hakim and Adlina for making it to the competition and for playing so well!

It was really worth the 4 hours walk in the HOT sun (it was scorching hot!). Proud mother has freckles popping out merrily on her sunburnt face, but hey, it was a GREAT day! 

I was so happy to be with my little girl & one day when she grows up, I hope Adlina will remember her first outing on the golf course with Mama as her caddy :)

(^_^) loads of warms, fuzzy feelings <3

Shikin, Apak is so happy too! His first cucu-cucu to play golf.. Me looking like Mak? I wish la kan! Mak looks so good at her age (62) & I can only dream that when I get to her age, I would look half as good as her now. Haha :D
