Launching new event

Everyone know what is a swimming meet, what is a swimming competition. It is all about speed.

However, have anyone thought, these swimmers who swam the fastest, are their strokes the most effective? Are their stokes most gracious? Are their strokes correct? Or are they just simply using their bull energy to force their way to the champion?

Our POSB Everyday Champion - Individual Award winner 2010, Mr Joseph Tan, has plan to promote sports and sports integrity. He had came up with a proposal of organizing 'Who swim the most gracious, correct and effective stroke' event, which will be held in December 2010. Currently, Mr Joseph is seeking for more sponsors to make the prizes look more attractive.

A swimming coach himself, "I see many students learning how to swim now. Parents signed their kids up for swimming lessons at clubs, public pools, condo pools, etc. However, we can see parents who are very happy with the results their kids achieve, we also see parents complaining about how bad the coach is after learning few months."

Mr Joseph's aim is to encourage coaches to fill their passion in coaching, encourage them to coach the kids professionally and ensure the kids learn the swim properly. At same time, he wish to motivate the kids to learn and not misbehave during the lesson. "Swimming is for everyone" said Mr Joseph.

The aim for this event are as below:
1. To promote sports - Swimming
2. To promote sports professionalism and sports integrity
3. To motivate students to learn from their coaches
4. To encourage the coaches to do their best by imparting their knowledge and skill to the students
