Chapter 1: The Rugby History of Me : Part 4

1996

This is a big year for me.. well, for my school team, we won all major tournament. Half of under 18 team was from 1997 batch. and also, this year, i was selected for national junior u-19 team for the ARFU u-19 tournament at Hong Kong.

And this year also created his own history...On 22nd September 1996 @ around 6.00pm, our dearest teammate, my next-table classmate, Allahyarham Faizal @ Oja, passed away peacefully at his house in Jerantut. We got the news around 9pm when Raja Idris called up all of our rugby player teammates gathered in a dorm at Block A hostel. Most of us crying....and me? I dont know why...I just cant believe it...no tears from my eyes... I just cant believe it...

Al-Fatihah... may God bless you...

You have not posted recently, but I hope you get this. I admire your passion for the game and how you want to see Rugby progress in Malaysia.

I have similar hopes for rugby in general. I am attempting to increase knowledge about the exciting skill "rugby sidestep" - used for getting past opponents. I hope you might enjoy my site
