For some swimmers, the SICC invitational was their first swim meet abroad and they were all geared up for it.

With a total of only 19 swimmers, IBSC collected 20 gold, 23 silver and 20 bronze including the relay events. It's such an awesome performance for such a small team and IBSC managed to a third position overall with collection of 717.5 points after the champion club R.Philippines Swimming League and the host, SICC.
Pint-sized Pun Pei Jin was awarded the Overall Champion for the girls under 10 category as she was donned the most medals with 5 gold and 4 silver in the 9 individual events she swam.
Congratulations to the team and all swimmers who have collected medals and points for IBSC. Also thumbs-up to Lee Jia Jing, Yap Li Wen and Under 12 Boys Team A who have broken 2 meet records each.

The full results of 9th SICC Invitational Swim Meet 2013 can be downloaded here.
The swim trip was short but sweet in memories in many ways as swimmers and parents have enjoyed the journey, shopping and the friendly meet in SICC. Swimmers have the opportunity to make new friends at the pool and experience the swimming competition in a different perspective amidst the National Day celebration in Singapore.
Appreciation goes to the IBSC Support Team consisting of the supportive parents who have initiated the trip and came forward to help in managing the team, chaperoning the swimmers and driving the team to and fro Singapore.
Also thanks to the host, Singapore Island Country Club for their great hospitality and we hope to return to the invitational meet next year.
Enjoy some snapshots below.
