big splash

A warm welcome to the readers of this blog. It's been a while since the last update, since the events are petering out for our hall, most unfortunately, but fret not, here's some entertainment at last.

The weather clearly not buying into the warm welcome theme.

So there was some rain occasionally, but nothing could dampen the spirits of our very own Sports Secretary, Lee Hsi En, whose abundance of energy is always apparent.

The eager timekeeper.

The casual reader would have expected an easy victory over the Ohmers with the absence of some swimmers, but fat hope! We had more than enough swimmers to field a competitive team!

The girls' team.

The girls took a respectable 8th in the freestyle event, a commendable achievement despite the lack of match fitness and experience.

The guys' team. (Stop holding your breath, Mark) 

Unfortunately, the guys did not manage to qualify for the subsequent rounds of their respective events, but to quote Cantona in Nike's Joga Bonito ads, there was "big heart".

Hall 4's medley team.

The medley team earned themselves an early shower when they were DQed due to a fault kick following the plunge by our butterfly-stroke swimmer. No problems though, everyone was all smiles at the end and the swimming team departed the pool with chins up and heads held high.

Aside to the team: the late-night visits to ah fang may resume! (:
