A New Year & A New Semester For Us.

Currently we had met with Mr Nik Radzi who is an event manager in sports but more focus on futsal.
We met him at Pandan Indah where he came with a very smart green scooter with Milo slogan Syoknya Bola.
Our purpose actually is to ask his help about our event that we plan to organize.
He is very supportive and he's willing to help us to for the event and he also can also get the lowest price for any stuff that we need to organize the event.

We plan to find 60 teams to play in our first event in Shah Alam area. We also need to decide whether to make it open to all or open only to our faculty students. It will be a one day event only starting from morning until night. Mr Nik Radzi can help us to find players where he have some contacts to advertise in newspaper but it may be too expensive.

However, we still can't decide to proceed with the event because we have a tight schedule as our new semester has started.
Hope that we can decide it as soon as possible because we only have a month left before the announcement of winner in March.

Also wondering about other teams: MKey, Call 21 & Go-Ge-It...how you guys are doing??
How was their progress until now? Hope they are doing just fine..
That's all for now from us, FutsalEx aka Futsal Exchange.
