4th <strong>Singapore</strong> Masters <strong>Swimming</strong> Championships 2009<br />
An international cast at the Masters’ Meet<br />
by Snow Quek<br />
Fourteen of our Masters swimmers<br />
led by Director of <strong>Swimming</strong>, Barry Prime,<br />
took up the challenge to compete at the annual<br />
<strong>Singapore</strong> Masters <strong>Swimming</strong> Championships<br />
hosted by Aquatic Performance Swim <strong>Club</strong>. The<br />
event was held at Changi Beach <strong>Club</strong> over the<br />
29–30 August weekend.<br />
The poolside atmosphere was electrifying. We<br />
had swimmers from all around the world competing<br />
at the Meet. Friendliness and a sense of<br />
camaraderie was palpable all over the place.<br />
For some of our swimmers the “bite” of competition<br />
they felt was a bit of a déjà vu. For most,<br />
however, it was their first exposure to competition.<br />
But what was more important was that<br />
the team spirit was high and everyone enjoyed<br />
themselves!<br />

The Satay and Laksa party provided a nice ending<br />
to the event. We hope more members will<br />
join the <strong>Club</strong>’s Masters <strong>Swimming</strong> Programme<br />
to boost our chances at the next Meet.<br />
