35th Singapore Junior Athletic Championships 2009, 30-31 May 2009, Saturday & Sunday

It has been a long break since the National Schools Competition and almost all students laid off track training and just got back not long ago. Meet result wasn't as amazing and this could be due to the scorching hot weather in Gombak Stadium.

Quite a number of athletes did not turn up for the competition, mostly due to "O" Levels examination.

Our youngest training mate represented his school in the 100mH and came in 4th! (only 4 participants..) did a PB of 14.95s on a 0.914m height with wind: +3.1m/s.

Enjoy the Video!
