Hi volleyballers,
Your views have been heard. The arguments in the comments section reflect the honour at stake in the upcoming 2008 Inter-School Volleyball Championships.
In the Boys’ B Division, St Hilda’s have emerged as the overwhelming favourite to capture the 2008 Championship title with 50 votes. Tipped to take 2nd place is Catholic High with 44 votes. However, Shuqun is not far back with 42 votes while North Zone favourite Xinmin is expected to take 4th place with 35 votes. A heated battle had gone on for some time with regards to Catholic High and Shuqun. Having given everyone a preview of their skills at the recently concluded U-16 championships, some readers were in disagreement as to which school would prove the best. It is going to be a hard fight as the teams have been feverishly brushing up their skills and going through intensive trainings during the December holidays. Definitely something to watch out for!
In the Girls’ B Division, Presbyterian High is a clear favorite to win the Championship. With 36 votes, Presbyterian High is in front of Jurong and Ngee Ann. Jurong is in 2nd place, with 31 votes, whereas Ngee Ann is in 3rd. Cedar takes 4th with 17 votes. Surprisingly, Nanyang Girls’ who came in runners up in the ‘C’ Division championships this year did not receive a single vote for this category. Will these predictions come true? Or will Nanyang Girls’ create an upset by breaking into the top 4. Only time will tell.
In the Boys’ C Division, Catholic High emerged the winner in the voting battle against St Hilda’s for the championship title. Catholic High led the vote count by three, pushing St. Hilda’s back into 2nd. Shuqun and Xinmin take 3rd and 4th, with 26 and 25 votes respectively.
In the Girls’ C Division, Cedar Girls’ are still hotly tipped to finish with the title in their hands. At 36 votes, they were hot reader favourites over Ngee Ann with only 25 votes. Dunman, Shuqun and Xinmin are the three teams who look like they have to fight hard to prove that they belong in the top four. Dunman and Shuqun are in joint 3rd position with 16 votes each, whereas Xinmin lags behind with 13 votes.
Thank you all for your votes. We look forward to the new season to see how accurate your predictions will prove to be. 😉

haha lets see who gets into the top 4 next year then .i would like to point out that xinmin got wonderful facilities for volleyballers, that must be applauded!! on the other hand HC trains outdoor. despite that still can win xinmin 2-0 !!!

to tan zi jie xinmin can win hwa zhong anytime, u did not see the match or maybe u did.but beating xinmin once does not mean anything at all, so i stick to by view that xinmin will be first,and also THIS IS ABOUT NATIONALS 2008 NOT ABOUT THE U13 CHAMPIONSHIP, SO NO POINT SAYING XINMIN WILL BE OUT OF TOP 4 , HWA ZHONG MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO GET EVEN THROUGH FIRST ROUND NEXT YEAR
its all about a U13 mini cup tournament. got the word mini? lets see about nxt year
LMAO AHAHAHAHHA ZI JIE! TAN JIE ZI!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
damn cute
er TAN JIE ZI is obviously not me.
‘Let me tell u something, hwa zhong only whip xinmin for 1 time but 1 time isn’t enough .you have to prove that hwa zhong is better by beating them more than they beat u. so i put my votes to xinmin c boys,they can win hwa zhong anything.Jai you xinmin c boys(north zone powerhouse)!!!! ”
er L , hwachong played xinmin once and won. isnt that ‘beating them more than they beat u’.
‘they can win hwa Chong anything’

4th- xinmin secondary
for Bgirls;
cedar was lucky to be in group Y for under16. if they were in group X, they would have hard time squeezing into the top4 placing.
