TOC Champions!

It is really undeniable that there are many talented students in TOC.

From sports such as dodgeball, football and badminton to skills competition, so many hidden gems could be found among the students.

For example, the following guys are the champions for TOC Skills Olympics for different terms:

Wong Yat Heng - 2nd Term Champion. He is also the THREE times champion in the battle of all the Champions

Panchal Preshantkumar - 3rd Term Champion

Reynald Nelson King - 4th Term Champion

It takes alot of concentration and passion to be able to win this competition, so bravos guys! You all make TOC so proud!

Now let's move to sports area. Our students are really active in sports, and some of them really excel in these areas.

Remember the blog entry whereby Darrel was featured when he won the MVP award for Best Dodger in Dodgeball?

Now, we have another student who is in the dodgeball team as well, and he won the MVP award for Best Accurate Shooter!!

Wong Woei Han - Most Accurate Shooter

He is a very versatile player as he not only shoots well, but he is also very agile and therefore able to dodge the ball that comes from any angle and speed. If the writer's not mistaken, he's good in badminton too!

Again, congratulations to you two! Both of you make TOC so proud also!

The MAD Campus Dodgeball League has ended and although TOC Velocity Team did not win, this will be a real learning experience for all them and I'm sure they would bounce back stronger than ever!

Keep up the spirit guys!

Inter-campus Dodgeball Competition

The inter-campus dodgeball tournament hits cineleisure @ the curve, and our very own TOC team was there to shake things up a little. It was a first for team TOC, or better known as "Team Velocity" as team leader Vincent informed. The team had taken part in minor dodgeball competitions before, and wanted to form a proper team as soon as they felt they were good enough.

MAD CAMPUS DODGEBALL LEAGUE FLYER

Dodgeball originated as a physical activity during PE lessons in school, but very quickly gained popularity as an actual sport, and it's now played in colleges around the world. In this case, Malaysia Association of Dodgeball (MAD) was responsible for bringing the mayhem. Slightly over 15 campuses took part in the sport, and the crowd it pulled with it was quite impressive.

TEAM VELOCITY MEETING THE OPPONENT TEAM

Team Velocity battled it out with Taylors, and put on a great show. Velocity had a mix in player abillities. Half of them were small and nimble, while the rest had a srong arm or two in shooting the opponents down. Each team was given five rounds to knock thier opponents out silly, Velocity and Taylors were tied at the final round with 4 to 4, and the battle only got hotter when only one player at each team remained till the very finish.

TEAM VELOCITY READY FOR THE GAME TO START

Very humbly, Velocity took the win for TOC in that round, and got a good start for the next tournament. It was also quite unexpected since they considered themselves a little unprepared in terms of practicing, so the team was extra estatic over the victory.

The crowd cheered, and the other campuses wowed. TOC will dominate the challengers once again in the next round.

WHO WILL WIN? TOC!!!
