Swimmers Made A Splash At Sports Festival

In the spirit of bringing sports back amidst the pandemic, the annual sport festival was held with 28 sports competitions islandwide to bring Singaporeans, schools and teams together to celebrate Singapore’s 56th birthday through sports. Singapore Sports School participated in 4 sports – Badminton, Swimming, Table Tennis and Taekwondo, and brought back impressive results. The Swimming Academy in particular did extremely well at the Toa Payoh Sports Centre. 

With a strong contingent of 27 swimmers, the group returned with 9 gold, 8 silver and 4 bronze medals in the competition, which took place from 28 August to 5 September 2021.

On her experience at the competition, Manda Low said: “It has been a long while since I got to race, and it made me realised that we compete not only for new timings but also to enjoy the moment. It was also really great to catch up with my clubmates again after a long time. Overall, this competition was an enjoyable one which I haven't had in a while.”

She was also pleased with her achievements. “I am overjoyed about my achievements in this competition as I managed to get new Personal Bests in all 3 events – 50m Breaststroke, 50m and 100 Fly, and achieved my targets in all the events. Achieving bronze in both the 100m Fly and 50m Breaststroke has also made me more confident. It made me realise that I, too, can unleash greatness. It also motivated me to do well in major competitions, such as Singapore National Age Group Championships (SNAG), in the future,” shared Manda, who displayed great discipline in her diet and lifestyle in preparation for the competition.
