The.Planetcrush.Experience

The first PlanetCRuSH E-Sports competition in 2009 was held last week from 19th – 21st of March. It was a fun-filled and grueling competition where we see 9 different teams facing off for the top spots in our DOTA competition.

The competition was held at our PlanetCRuSH Cyber-wellness Center and saw close to 80 competitors and friends over the 3 days. The first 2 days saw the competitors fighting it out to make it to the top 2 teams in their group, before we ran the semi-final and final stages of our competition on the 3rd and final day.

The competition saw teams having to pit their wits and guts and work together to think, plan and execute strategies to overcome their opponents. At some stages of the games, it was so intense that there were periodic moments of silence in the house!

At our PlanetCRuSH Cyber-wellness Center, our DOTA E-Sports was not the only happening thing going on. Our Console Games room was also opened up for visitors to use and try. Players could be hitting the barracks of their DOTA opponents at one moment, and crossing finishing lines in Mario-Kart Wii at the next. It was a fun-filled time for everyone.

Alas, as with all competitions, only one team can be the winner. Team Slippers emerged as the Champions after an intensive battle with the 1st runner-up, Rise Stand Fight (RSF). We also saw Team Jarrell walk away with our 3rd placing prize.

Champions - Team Slippers
1st Runner-Up - Rise Stand Fight (RSF)
2nd Runner-Up - Team Jarrell

Congratulations to these teams! At the end of the day, everyone walked back with an important lesson about life – winning and losing is part of it, it is the
process that counts.

Ever wonder what some of the staff at CRuSH are up to these days?

Christmas is a season of giving and receiving LOVE. After discovering your love languages, it would be good if you can reflect and apply what you have learnt.
1) What are your two main love languages?
2) For the week,
a) how are you going to love yourself?
b) how are you going to love someone?
E.g Parents, teachers, mentors

Volunteers are our key partners in our work to mentor the youths. On 15 Dec, we have SMU Ementors Appreciation and Review at our centre for our SMU mentors! It is a time to affirm and encourage our volunteers. At the same time, it allows the volunteers to share and reflect their learning experience as Ementors for Project CRuSH students.

Click on the “Comments” to read the volunteers thoughts on the following:

1) On a scale of 0 (I would not do it again!) to 10 (It is out of the world!), what is your rating for your Ementoring experience?

2) Why do you give yourself that rating?

3) What is 1 thing you have learnt?

4) How can you apply what you have learnt in your life?
