We are pleased to share that our youth paddlers:  Koen Pang, 16 years old and Goi Ruixuan, 17 years old  have qualified for the upcoming Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games (YOG) through the YOG Oceania qualification tournament in Rarotonga, Cook Islands and YOG Latin America qualification tournament in Asuncion, Paraguay respectively.

The STTA has provided every opportunity and resources to these youth paddlers to qualify for the YOG in Argentina in October. These youth paddlers were sent to every YOG continental qualification stop to fight for a chance to qualify for YOG.

We are very happy that Koen Pang and Goi Ruixuan did not fail us and have qualified for the YOG.  This is an incredible achievement and it was made possible because of the strong relationship we have with them. They trusted STTA and our coaches implicitly and together with their parents, their hard work, resilience and dedication have ensured them the chance to compete in the next month’s YOG!

Please lend your support and cheer for our Team Singapore paddlers in the upcoming YOG.
