HI5 Vs Pandan Lake Club

2nd friendly of the year. It was against the team which is organising the Pandan Lake Club Open being held on the 18th and 19th of April. Yes, that is next week. The team is looking great at the moment. With our latest addition Ram, who was a former team mate of mine not a while back ago. A man with great spirit and never die attitude, Ram is an excellent addition to the now complete 5 of HI5.

The game was set to start at 8pm. The Pandan Lake boys were raring to go and we were ready. We took the foursome by storm and were at a comfortable 200+ point lead and although the opponents crawled back, Team HI5 managed to secure the first point of the day. Lim was up next for his single and although he couldn't find the right balance to his darts, he adjusted constantly and with a focus mind pull 2points from the opponents to give the team a 3-0 lead. Finally i was up partnering Lim and confidence were sky high. Every dart i felt in my hand were sure but it didn't show. I don't know how to explain it. No matter what i did, i just couldn't throw the dart properly. I felt right, the standing felt right, the mind felt at ease but the hand wouldn't listen. Surprisingly enough Lim provided marvelous scoring and i provided the confident enough checking. I even managed to pull a 68 check in an unfavoured manor to secure the game. Hit the 5, went for the 13, and confidently checked it in the bull. Score at the moment 5-1. Jimmy Lee stepped up on the line and obviously pulled a victory. Without dropping a sweat, smiling and laughing all the way to a 2-1 win. This already secured the game at 7-2 but for friendly sake Jimmy Lee and SK finished up their doubles 2-0. And Ram in his official debut for HI5 lost 0-2 for a total of 10-4. What a victory and this looks to be like a great build up for the tournament next weekend.

More updates soon. Happy Darting.
