I'm @jadeneywrites but you can call me ken instead,We have a tune up game against the St. Louise de Marillac College of Bogo where in Bogo City Cebu I'm so thankful that I played against the school in Bogo. Last time I had a tune up game against the Northern Cebu College nearly in St. Louise de Marillac College of Bogo, both school have a good players but in St. Louise are have no experience in CVRAA while the NCC School are have a players where they have a experience.
They have a nice table it's just the same as ours but I really want the table Standard one in table tennis, but suddenly when I arrive at St. Louise it's just the same as ours table it's only plywood but it's have a good texture. The players in St. Louise have a potential and I enjoyed there I won the tune up game but there is a one players lose me. Still I enjoyed the game. And the reason why we tune up because this month on September 25 they have a district meet and I got interested to tune up with them and they agree so that's why we got tune up game against St. Louise.
After the tune up game, I realized that these experiences are very important for me as a player. Not only did I get the chance to test my skills, but I also learned how to adjust when facing different types of opponents. Playing against St. Louise de Marillac College of Bogo gave me more confidence because I saw their potential and at the same time, I saw what areas I still need to improve on.
This is what it looks like the table in our school.
Even though their players in Louise de Marillac College of Bogo don’t have CVRAA experience, I can see that with proper training and exposure, they will surely grow and become strong competitors in the future. It makes me happy that I got the chance to meet new players and share the same passion for table tennis.
What I like the most in this kind of tune up is not only about winning, but also about building connections with other schools and gaining more experience before the official competitions. The district meet is fast approaching, and these tune up games help me prepare physically and mentally.
I’m thankful for the opportunity to play, and I’m looking forward to more games like this. Every match, whether I win or lose, gives me lessons that I can carry forward in my journey as a student athlete.
