Our men secured 2nd in the National Championship Men (Plate) Category, and the ladies wowed us with their advancement in to the semi-finals for the National Championship Women Category! Ooooo…it looks like our competitors have to belt up really tight when we return stronger than ever next year. Rumors has it that the ladies are aiming to fill a 20-men boat? Extremely exciting, Woo-sa!

Quick Update

October 23rd, 2009 ironsugar No comments

Hiya Paddlers! It has been a long while since we updated anything here. We haven’t been typing on the keyboards, and publishing on the web because we have been busy doing our own “thangs”, and basically having fun while we are at it! Few examples like…

1. Slapping one another to warm up before a race…

Come closer!

2. Ya know just standing around and posing for the cameras, and looking good….

Flash 'em like you just don't care

3. Winning medals and making monkey faces with ‘em….

Can't touch this!

Oh did I just say winning medals? Yuppie-oh-yup! Just so you know, Team Kiyah-Splashh! won some goodies while participating in the National 5-crew Dragon Boat Challenge 2009! Hooyah! We came in 2nd under the National Championship (Men), 3rd under the Interbusiness Houses and Clubs, and 3rd under the National Championship (Women) race categories! And here are our team mates with their pictures taken with the event’s guest-of-honor, Mr. Tharman Shanmugaratnam, our Minister of Finance.

Ladies Team

2nd National Championship Men

Congratulations to Team Kiyah-Splashh! for their hard-earned success! And we believe…

team work!
… in T.E.A.M = Together Everyone Achieves Miracles (Medals)!
