 First, players selected would play for vtheir schools, then states, country and finally into the most popular championship; Olympics.
 Malaysian kids would go to SUKMA; states competition, SEA Games, Commonwealth Games and finally to Olympic Games.

b) Olympics Games.
 The Summer Olympics is held every 4 years. There are also Winter, Youth and Paralympics Sports.
 The last Summer Olympics was held in Beijing China, 2008. About 300 countries took part accumulating to more than 11,000 athletes. There were so many types of events.
 We watched video clips on Beijing Olympics Opening and Closing Ceremony, Barcelona Opening Ceremony, how the torch was lit up and also the famous drummers’ performance in Beijing. Barcelona witnessed the archer aiming the torch into the huge bowl while Beijing witnessed an athlete being held up like Spiderman as if flying to light up the huge bowl with torch! Both were awesome!

c) Wearing the label.
 The kids’ sports labels were laminated and they cut the sides so that they were round and safe for their t-shirts. Some were pinned while some were pasted to their clothings.

d) Basketball Game
 The kids played in their teams, “Yellow and Green Bird” teams. Meanwhile, the other kids practised their cheerleading dance. Xing Tong, Yun Xin and Zhe Qing assisted at training the other dancers.
 The kids were better at Basketball. They realized that they sometimes have to pass the ball to their teammates as the score is for the team. They can’t play foul neither complain in the middle of the game.

e) Cheerleading dance.
 It was danced to the “Rio” music. They were quite good and the boys clapped and smile at their their performance.
