football in the mud

Publish Post

Was at the football field today to watch the demak league.Actually the idea of organising the demak league was mooted by few of us noting the glaring lack of organised grassroots football in Kuching.We tried to come with a theme "every Saturday is a football day". The league has now entered its second weekend with a total of 16 games already being played.Teams come generally within the vicinity of demak with the likes of the kampongs sejingkat,bako,muara tebas,goebil and sungai bako all participating.Has it been a spectacle so far? Indeed it has been,there has been goals galore, disputed decisions,good vibes from the crowd and the best of all in this rainy weather,FOOTBALL IN THE MUD. I have only seen a few matches but as i observed the standards and crowd pull not that bad either.Demak Rangers is a clear favourite with the likes of Hussein Razak,Safri Amit and Erwan in the team(all former state players). Brooke FC seems to be acquainting themselves well too ,with their thrashing of 9-0 on sg Bako ,maybe the semi final will awaits them.. Well i like to believe that the Saturday is a football day dream will be a reality and hopefully the authorities responsible for the well being of football will put their acts together and organise more Saturday and Sunday grassroots football.
