Yes,
she’s pretty, a sweet little thing, in sports……but she wins!
Hoorah!! She looked tired when I met her in Astaka Squash Courts,
Selangor, as she just finished her finals of the junior circuit.
Fortunately, she’s pleasant and agreed to sit with me for a chat.
Winning circuit titles in an age group wayyyy beyond her age, 11
year old Wee Nee’s definitely a player to watch in the future. A
student of Sri Pelita, Penang, I personally think Malaysia squash
needs more upcoming juniors like her. |

|
|
|
|
When did you start squash? |
|
|
|
|
Wee
Nee
: |
Umm…seven? Yeah, seven +. |
| |
|
|
Oh, the ++. Who told you about squash? |
|
|
|
|
Wee
Nee
: |
My
sister’s friend. She asked us whether we were interested in squash.
Then my sister went for training, and I felt interested to play,
and……I played!! |
| |
|
|
So, how do you like the junior circuits? |
|
|
|
|
Wee
Nee
: |
Fine.
Quite fun. We get to go shopping, and also eat a lot! |
| |
|
|
Haha,
Sergeant Allan likes that too……is this circuit title your first win? |
|
|
|
|
Wee
Nee
: |
: No, I
won the Under-13 twice last year, and the Under-15 twice also. This is
the second one. |
| |
|
What
did you feel after winning? |
|
|
|
|
Wee
Nee
: |
Happy! |
| |
|
|
Well congratulations! You’re 11 right? So,
why are you not playing in the
Under-13’s?? |
|
|
|
Wee Nee
: |
Err…I
was pushed up to the Under-15 because all the Under-15 girls were
pushed up to Under-17. Yeah. |
|
|
|
What about the Penang Junior Open in May? Will
you be participating? |
|
|
|
Wee Nee
: |
Yeah,
but not sure if it’s Under-15. I won the Under-11 last year. I beat a
girl from Selangor. |
| |
|
|
Well
done! Hey, did you have to miss school for this trip? |
| |
|
|
Wee Nee
: |
No, but
sometimes we have to. |
| |
|
|
What if you have to? How do you cope with
that? |
| |
|
|
Wee Nee
: |
I have
tuition classes on Tuesday and Thursday. |
