| USJ basketball club bids farewell to their coach of four years Posted: 26 Feb 2013 05:43 AM PST USJ6 Basketball Centre (U6BC) successfully organised an exhibition match as a tribute to their former coach, Zoe Looi Swear Kean. The match took place at the club's outdoor basketball court in USJ 6/2B. Zoe was also given a farewell dinner by the club in appreciation of her being the most dedicated coach in the club's history. Zoe served a colourful four years with the boys' and girls' U6BC team. However, U6BC could not secure her services anymore because she had accepted a job as a design consultant in Singapore. She managed a last game with U6BC as her former-boys took on the current U16 U6BC team coached by Alan Sim in a friendly game. The game resulted in a win for Zoe's team with a 77-73 score. After the game, Zoe said she was very happy throughout her time in U6BC. She is happy for the boys too as she had seen them grow up. "I started coaching some of the boys when they were only 13. Back then, they were so young and mostly shorter than me. Now, everyone has grown up so well and they are now taller than me," she said. "Besides that, I have always emphasised on attitude. This group of boys are always at their best behaviour. I will definitely miss them. I would like to thank U6BC for giving me their best too." On the exhibition game day, U6BC also marked their 10th anniversary. Zoe hopes U6BC can keep going with what they are currently doing for the youngsters. She congratulated U6BC for successfully maintaining a community club for 10 years. Over the last 10 years, U6BC have great achievements. They have contributed to the Subang and USJ Community by organising training for the children. Zoe hopes this club will progress further in their support of the Subang and USJ community and encourage the children to stay healthy in life. The match was witnessed by Kelana Jaya MP Loh Gwo Burne and Subang Jaya assemblyman Hannah Yeoh and U6BC Club patron Datuk Lee Hwa Beng. U6BC secretary Juan Lee appealed to the local leaders to help the club upgrade the court for the boys. The club also needs funds to upkeep their meeting, store and changing rooms which is badly leaking and infected by termite. |
