Wolves: What Doesn't Kill Us, Makes Us Stronger

After receiving a battering at the Mauritian Futsal Cup (MFC) 2010, the Wolves enter the Champions Cup 2010 tournament eagerly.  The results of MFC 2010 were terribly disappointing for the Wolves as they finished in last spot on the ladder.  However, instead of quietly licking their wounds, they have steeled themselves and began whatever preparations they can to ensure a different outcome on the Champions Cup 2010 tournament.

With some changes in their line-up since the last tournament, the Wolves enter the tournament with these players:
  • Kim Young (captain)
  • Kenny "Cha Cha" How (vice captain)
  • Jeff Lai
  • Edouard Whan Kan
  • Nicolas "Teokon" Tao
  • Rio
  • John
Wolves captain, Kim Young, admits that "the Wolves have been through a rough first experience but we learned a lot from our first team experience".   However, the captain of this young team definitely has an indomitable spirit, which he can hopefully impress upon his team.  Like the real Wolves of the wild, Kim Young looks at their encounters in the MFC and positively characterizes it in a well-known and appropriate adage, "what doesn't kill us, make us stronger".

The tournament will prove to be another challenge to the Wolves.  Jeff Lai returns in the team line-up as Danny Young exists the team and their goal-keeper Christopher Chong is replaced by veteran Edouard Whan Kan.

The Wolves know that they have a lot more work to do, and they do not underestimate any teams in the tournament.  Kim Young wishes all the other teams the best of luck and looks forward to the upcoming tournament, determined to improve upon their mistakes and make their way further up the ladder.
