More news on COPA IBA

For your info guys, there are 21 teams taking part in Senior Captain Ball, where we will also be sending a team. The teams are divided into 5 groups of 4 each with the exception of Group A where there will be 5 teams. The top 2 teams of each group will progress to Round 2, with the exception of Group A where the top 3 teams qulify for Round 2.

BSGC Ywap is in Group A along with Bangsar 2, Cheras, Elim and SS2.

All we need to qualify for Round 2 is to win at least 2 matches that will give us at least 6 points (3 for a win, 1 for a draw). The 6 points should be sufficient for us to qualify among the top 3 in the group.

I rate our chances as high to qualify for Round 2. A win in Round 2 will put us into the quarterfinals.

Although we respect our opponents as Bangsar and SS2 has aways been strong, and we have had a friendly with Elim (so we know them as well) with Cheras being "unknown" to us - we should hold no fear for them. I think we are going to do well and progress to Round 2 at the very least.

I hope you will bring your World Cup fever to COPA IBA and let's start winning some trophies and titles! Come in your "Blues" and cheer for BSGC YWAP!
