We caught up with them right before they jumped on the plane to find out what they’re most hyped about:
How do you feel to join the international to compete in such one of the competitive tournament in Taiwan?
Joining an international tournament, especially one as big and competitive as TUO, always means a lot to me. No matter how many tournaments I’ve already played, I still feel a responsibility to represent Cambodia ultimate the best I can. There’s pressure, but it’s the good kind, it keeps me playing with high spirits and energy.
What’s exciting things you are looking for out of this tournament?
I’m really looking forward to see Mischief and Tobias Brook up close. It’s a great opportunity to see high level players compete in the same tourney with you.
How do you feel to join the international to compete in such one of the competitive tournament in Taiwan?
I feel genuinely excited and optimistic as I head into this tournament. Since my last competition in July, I’ve prepared with more focus and intention than ever before. I’ve never felt this ready: physically, mentally, and emotionally, to step onto the field and compete at such a high level.
What’s exciting things you are looking for out of this tournament?
What I’m looking forward to the most is the opportunity to unleash the full range of my skills and show everything I’ve been building over the past few years. A lot of my training hasn’t just been physical, it’s been mental, strategic, and deeply PERSONAL. This tournament is the perfect stage to put all of that into action.
Good Luck, Jimmy and Jon!
We couldn’t be prouder to see these two leaders growing and taking this huge step in their Ultimate journey.
Wishing them the very best this weekend! Go play hard, have fun, and bring those new skills back to the team!
