6th World Carrom Championship 2012, Colombo. Sri Lanka (31st October - 4th November).....here I come.
Ok my apologies for not been writing for quite a while. Yes and I'm back from the competition. It was a good experience but sadly my form wasn't up to par and where I needed it the most, it just didn't come. In all the "bad" that happened, something good did happen. A few days after I got back home, as usual I was back on the board - training. Something strange happened cos this stroke which I've been trying for many years finally took place. It was certainly a good feeling although it hasn't been perfected and needs lots of sharpening, which I've already started working on on a daily basis. I'm delighted as this is the widely used stroke in the international carrom fraternity.
Having said that, I'm very grateful to my employers especially my MD and Head of Corp. Comm. for initiating this sponsorship. For a big organization like this, carrom should be nothing but because of the fact that I'm an employee and that I'm crazily passionate about this game, the company came forward by supporting and recognizing this game. This is a huge boost for me as well as for carrom.
Not only did they sponsor me but they also sponsored the team in terms of providing 2 sets of beautifully printed t-shirts and a cool-looking hand towel to go along with it. This is very exciting for me as I've been with this organization for 5yrs already and this is the 1st time they've agreed to this sponsorship.
HUGE THANKS TO THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR GIVING THE GREENLIGHT. KUDOS TO THE TEAM!
My only hope is that they will continue to come forward with the assistance I need for future international outings.
