      Thanks all for the feedback. I didnt know choosing cca so competitive in secondary schools! UG is a must in the form and it just sounds strange to me that the school choose you and if all 5 choices are taken up by better candidates, you have to be allocated to the balance…or if all of your preferred 4 choices are not given…u will.land up with UG …never cross DD mind to join a UG… so she has to start thinking. Although we get to change in Sec 2 if really don like, I suppose the options are even more limited at that level when everyone has settled in. …yesterday she was selected to go for Judo training after flipping over a senior. She was struggling to attend as she never thought of joining such sports but think now they have to keep an open mind. Seems not a choice in sec school. Thanks for sharing… so new to the system and everything so competitive at this level and fast too!

            Judo is a strong cca in nygh. They are either champs or runner-up. Good to be chosen but then hor must watch the weight cos they split the girls into categories by weight so weight management is impt.

                As far as I see, the Judo girls are quite well-built, probably an in-born thing and also because of physical contact, there are some amount of bodily injuries that the girls may sustain (eg dislocated shoulders) . Also, as the girls are being slammed as part of their training, be prepared to see bruises etc on their bodies.

                  My DD chose to join clubs. She did NOT fill in all the choices, couldn’t remember whether she purposely left out all the UG or sports.


                  One of her classmates applied for the same club for CCA as my DD but she did not get. My DD was surprised even clubs CCA are so popular.
