Zliners-PFA Challenge: Junior and Girls

On the 13th of September, Ztec together with Frontliners organized a tournament with the help of PFA. This tournament was no normal floorball tournament. It was a day specially made and planned for the girls and juniors of Penang.

The Junior tournament started on time at 9am with a total of 8 teams participating. It was a great sight watching all the juniors play their heart out running and chasing for every ball. They were surely much more energetic if you were to compare them to the senior players.

Ztec sent in 1 Junior team consisting of captain Dominic Ewe, Danial, In Hyeok and Alex Park. It was a great blow in the morning as Danial was struck with a fever leaving the team to play with only 3 players. Nevertheless, the team played their heart out beating a team from Contact in their opening game with a score of 2-1. The first was an own goal by a Contact player followed by a goal by the team's own captain, Dominic Ewe. Their second game was tough as they face the Dalat big boys. Ztec fell 5-0 in their second game. In their third game, Ztec just needed a draw to go through to the semis. Nevertheless, the boys played their heart out and beat a team from FGA 2-0 thanks to goals from Dominic and Alex Park.

With that, the team made it into the semis where they played another team from Contact. They lost by a narrow 1-0 to a much skillful Contact side. In the 3rd and 4th placing match, Ztec played another Dalat team eyeing the bronze medal. After 8 mins of intense match up, Dalat boys emerge victorious over team Ztec.

The final results are:

1st place: Dalat
2nd place: Contact
3rd place: Dalat
4th: Ztec
