Watching Time

Furthermore, the players were allowed to leave the field when the opening ceremony was over. After a few minutes to make preparations, the first match of the national competition would start at nine in this morning.

All teams have received their fixtures, from the day, date, the time set by the organising committee. So those who got afternoon or evening schedules chose to stay in their respective lodges, including New Ares.

After collecting all their luggage from the players' room, they rushed to the dormitory for a short break as well as a short training session that Coach Marlon had decided to organize on the spur of the moment. They left the stadium and got on the bus without a single fan trying to get close to them.

When they arrived at the hotel, Coach Marlon took them straight to the basketball hall. The look on their faces was one of surprise as they thought they would get more rest time.
