{Wednesday, October 11, 2006 . e-rugby: Interview with Lay}

e-rugby: How were you introduced to rugby?

Lay: I had always played sports growing up and in school, but I didn’t think my athletic career was going to continue in college. However, after the first couple of weeks at JJC, I got really antsy not playing a sport, and missed being part of a team. A few gals in my school played touchrugby, and they convinced me to give it a try. I was hesitant at first, but after my first practice, I was instantly in love with rugby. I was excited to go to every practice and always came back with a smile on my face.

e-rugby: Oh... I see..Who
is your Biggest Influence On Your Touch Rugby Career?

Lay: My coach, KeHui aka Ah Neo. Neo has taught me so much tactically. She has been a true inspiration to the team. She has a way of making you feel like you can accomplish anything.

e-rugby: Ah... good old Ah Neo aye.. Long time never see her. I should get her on my interview sometime..
So... What are Your Personal Goals?

Lay: To lead my gals in NTU to victory over NUS! And hopefully I would have an opportunity to play at the national level.

e-rugby: What do you think of NTU's Touch team?

Lay: One of my favorite aspects of the NTU Women’s Touch Rugby team is its incredible diversity. Before I came to NTU, I was somewhat ignorant and assumed touch rugby was only for women with a certain personality and body type. However, my misconceptions were soon shattered when I joined the team, and I saw that women with a range of body types, ethnicities, denominations, sexual orientations and personalities were all part of the rugby club. Although there is great diversity within the members of the NTU team, we all share a common passion for rugby and dedication to the team.

e-rugby: We heard that the NTU Men's team contacted you to participate in their team for the upcoming Street Rugby Challenge. Any comments on that?
Lay: Hahahahaha, at first i thought theres a PURE womens team. I din know that its actually a mixed team. To be frank, i was planning to win the street challenge. But once i heard its a mixed competiton, my heart shattered. How are we gonna win it with the Big and clumsy guys? Its a 4 v 3 tournament. Imagine 2 guys on the court, no more space to run already! Hahahahaha.

e-rugby: ........

e-rugby: But we heard that they are actually selecting the BEST to take part in this yr's competition. They may be big, but definitely got what it takes to win it.

Lay: Hahahahahha, win? I dun think so... Look at Norm...erm... lets not say names. Some of them are so fat... erm... i mean huge... They are simply not agile enough. Its not like contact where they can just bash their way thru'. It takes speed, skills and intelligence to play touch.

e-rugby: WTF... Ok... i think thats all for today...

Lay: Wait! still got that guy who *@(*^&*^&%^$%#@$%#$%^*&^*& %$@#%, Hahahahahaha, ^^&*%^%$%^$&5^$%$^%^*&, Hahahahahahaha.

(due the the content of this remark, e-rugby decided NOT to publish it)

e-rugby: Ok guys, interview over... Lets go...

Lay: Wait! I'm not finish yet! still got these 3 guys........ (blah blah blah)
