| 2009-2010 NYP TKD commitee retreat |
On 17Nov, we have the "pleasure" of treating Year 2009-2010 NYP TKD committee members to 4 games of Paintball war.
There are so many points that Paintball are similar to TKD:
1. Safety is the number 1 in paintball - same as TKD, safety gear must be on at all contact sparring, no exceptions
2. Punishment if number 1 rule is compromised - Tuckjumps
3. Attackers vs defenders - some fighters adopted defensive techniques while others simply "CHIONG"
4. Acceptable injuries will only make you stronger - bruises are common but safety gears have brought the risk down to minimal
5. Last but not least, THEY ARE FUN!
After the games, most of them agreed that it should be Pain-ball instead...Nevertheless, I see excitement and smiles (inspite of the "injuries" that most of us suffered).
