STAROBA-KOBA Edisi 4 : What a Comeback by STAROBA

24th July 2011


Pakdokter's flight - as reported earlier was made to tee off first out of the 5 flights scheduled to play from the 10th tee. Pakdokter's fight contributed only 1 point as pakTgAzman had lost to pakErik. The STAROBA CdM lost his match against the KOBA Captain. During the game, pakdokter received the 'thumbs down' signal from pakFakhrunnasri - he was suffering from a bleeding 'hemorrhoids' that morning - the tension of the match must be too much for him that his 'piles' decided to act out. Pakdokter also learnt that pakBadry - the 'supersenior' featured in an earlier post with his ways of 'warming up and stretching' had also lost out to his opponent. That would already make 3-points down. Honestly pakdokter was not confident that STAROBA would be able to secure the 12.5 points needed to 'square' the game.


But pakdokter was completely wrong! As more and more flights returned to the clubhouse - STAROBA kept adding its matchpoints that if the remaining 4 players in the last 2 flights were to win we would achieve a draw. And amongst the last 4 was pakFakhrunnasri who had given pakdokter his 'thumbs-down' sign half-way through the game. But he and the rest of the remaining four came home victorious and saved STAROBA from embarassment and humiliation.


It was indeed a great come-back for STAROBA! It must be the 'ceramah subuh' in the bus by our own 'DrRosliKamsah' although unfortunately for him he was beaten by his opponent in his matchplay.



In his closing address, pakKamardinTop of KOBA congratulated STAROBA for its fighting spirit and advised his officers and executives to emulate the STAROBA discipline and organisation. For that, STAROBA must thank its CdM for his detailed and meticulous organisation.


The Grand Finale will be held in November - and it will be a 4-day affair. The venues being considered are Bintan Island and Bogor. The formats may also be changed - it may be an individual matchplay games for all the 4-days.


That will give pakdokter more games to 'demolish' pakMesha.......
