Bukit Merah Secondary School, Thursday, February 20, 2014 — Teck Whye Secondary (TWSS) soared to the top of Group H with an 8–1 win over Kent Ridge Secondary (KRS) in the National B Division Girls Floorball Championship. Nur Fayhqa (TWSS #12) led all scorers with four goals, while Su Yuen (KRSS #11) scored a consolation goal for her team.

Teck Whye now are on top of Group H with a 2–0 win–loss record, while Kent Ridge drop to 1–1.

The first period saw Teck Whye put three past Kent Ridge. Hajaratih (TWSS #13) opened the scoring before Nur Fayhqa (TWSS #12) and Pei Xuan (TWSS #2) chipped in with one goal apiece. Teck Whye consistently rebuffed the Kent Ridge attacks, running out on the counterattack to score. Su Yuen (KRS #4) pulled one back for Kent Ridge in the period, tying the game at 1–1. Teck Whye dominated from that point on, not letting Kent Ridge score for the rest of the game.

Teck Whye carried their strong performance into the second quarter. Each time Kent Ridge tried to attack, they would be repelled by the disciplined Teck Whye defence. Kent Ridge’s own defence could be seen desperately running around, in a bid to stop Teck Whye from scoring.

The final period saw Teck Whye display steady build-up play, gradually bringing the ball up court before scoring. There were a couple of wild shots from both teams. One shot flew so high that it hit the ceiling of the indoor court. Hajaratih (TWSS #13) scored a nice long range goal in the period, completely fooling the Kent Ridge keeper. Teck Whye sealed the 8–1 win, putting them in a good position to qualify from their group.
