Team IBSC joined the 11th SICC Invitational Swimming Championship 2015 for the third year in a row on 1-2 August, 2015 and managed a third overall position even though the team is small with only 22 swimmers participating this year.
The meet was championed by the Philippine Swim League, followed by the host, Singapore Island Country Club as the runner-up.
This year , our team comprised of a few junior swimmers and some senior swimmers. Not many were able to make it as the meet clashed with a local short course meet in Selangor. However, IBSC swimmers have enjoyed the away meet thoroughly as there were chances of mingling with the Singaporean and Philippines teams.

Afiq Imran won the age group championship trophy for the boys 16-17 years with collection of 3 gold and 3 silver.
Many of our swimmers have taken the opportunity to renew their personal best times too, especially the younger ones leaping with improvement from one event to another.

As there weren't enough swimmers in some age groups, younger junior swimmers have to swim up to higher age group to join force in the relays and all were excited to get medals for their great team effort.
The 2-day meet ended on Sunday afternoon with a farewell lunch punctuated with some awesome performances by the swim teams including a trio singing by Alia, Afiq and Alif.
IBSC wishes to express its appreciation to the gracious host, Singapore Island Country Club, for hosting the 11th SICC Invitational Swimming Championship 2015 and we hope to see again next year.
