MASUM 2007/2008
This year's MASUM competition will be held at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah from 21st May 2008 to 28th May 2008.
Centralized training will begin 4th May 2008 and continue daily right up to 19th May 2008.
Both the boys and girls teams are scheduled to depart KLIA for KK on 20th May 2008.
Based on current / preliminary information, UM is in Group A together with UMS and UiAM. UMS is usually quite strong (or at least above average) whilst UiAM is always unpredictable. UM must prepare themselves fully and to our very best.
It is UM's study week, next week and the week after that (and for some, right up to the 1st or 2nd week of May) will be UM's final exams. We will continue to run our practice sessions but we understand that players may not be able to attend all practices. Nonetheless, the coaches will continue to be present and will train / practice with whichever player turns up.
Players first priority must ultimately be their studies. Hopefully, all players have and will plan their studies well and will be able to come for at least 1 or 2 sessions a week even during the exams, so as to keep and maintain their stamina and fitness at a reasonable level.
This is the final stretch of our preparations for MASUM. To the players, the coaches would say : "Keep pushing and working hard .. .both academically and basketball-wise!"
