Singapore's athletes hope to raise the bar in 2015
As they look to 2015, Singapore athletes are aiming to outdo their fellow peers who have done well in major competitions in 2014.
SINGAPORE: Singapore athletes did well in two major
sporting events in 2014 - the Incheon Asian Games and Glasgow
Commonwealth Games – in which historic first-time wins and national
records broken.
As Singapore looks to 2015, Channel NewsAsia
focuses on three up-and-coming athletes eager to leave their mark in the
sporting arena.
THE SWIMMER
Nur Marina
Chan, 17, took up swimming as a recreation when she was just four. And
at the age of 12, she plunged into competitive swimming.
She won
her first medal in 2013 - four silvers at the Nanjing Asian Youth Games.
This was followed by one gold and six silvers at the 2014 Southeast
Asia Swimming Championships. At the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, she was in
the finals of four events.
Looking ahead, the Anglo-Chinese
Junior College student has lofty goals. "I can say for most swimmers
that you definitely want to go to the Olympics,” she said. But for me, I
just want to take it a step further. I want to have a gold medal. I
know some people say it's kind of a big dream to reach, but I believe
that it is possible."
For now, her priority is to qualify for the upcoming SEA Games and World Championships in 2015.
THE TRACK ATHLETE
On
land, Shanti Veronica Pereira is making huge strides - literally. The
18-year-old is the first to smash the 12-second mark in the Women's 100
metres with a time of 11.89 seconds, which she accomplished in 2013 in
the heats at the 8th IAAF World Youth Championships.
With that,
Shanti is the youngest holder of a national women's record in a track
event, but for the Republic Polytechnic student, getting into top form
is a priority. "When training gets tougher than usual, it just feels
like it is so tiring,” she said. “But I've never had that feeling of
giving up because I love what I do and I just want to keep doing it and
keep getting better."
In the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games,
Shanti made it to the semi-finals of the Women's 200 metres. She also
ran in the Women's 4x400 metres relay finals at this year's Asian
Games.She has won medals in competitions like the Ukraine World Youth
Championships and Asian Junior Athletics Championships.
THE FOOTBALLER
In
a gym at Jalan Besar Stadium, 18-year-old Adam Swandi prepares for his
football drills. Not many know that French premier club FC Metz had
signed him in February 2013, to play in its under-19 side.
The
experience was an eye-opener. "I would have to say the training in
Singapore and in France is similar,” said Adam. “But the only main
difference is the players’ mentality and how much they want to put into
every training. Over there, they give a 110 per cent even in training
sessions because they know that week in, week out, there will be trials.
And if you don't perform, you won't get your place, and slowly you'll
not be in the club anymore." (0246)
Standing at 171cm tall and
with a small build, Adam says his physical features are a weakness,
compared to his bigger and taller European counterparts. "Being over
there has helped me a lot in terms of getting stronger and dealing with
the knocks and pushes," he added.
Adam was offered a one-year
extension contract after his stint of one-and-as-half-years ended, but
had to decline because National Service came calling. Now back home,
Adam has joined the Young Lions where he aims to be in the first eleven.
HIGH EXPECTATIONS
These
three athletes aim to match the achievements of fellow athletes who
have done well in major competitions in 2014. In the 2014 Commonwealth
Games, Team Singapore won 17 medals, including eight gold medals.
There
were historic moments too. Joseph Schooling won the country's first
swimming medal since 1982 - a silver in the 100 metres butterfly. He was
behind South African Olympic Champion Chad le Clos, but managed to
break the national record and his own personal best time.
Singapore's
badminton players, including Derek Wong, went on to the men's singles
and doubles finals for the first-time ever - bringing home two silvers.
Meanwhile,
at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, Singapore won 24 medals - including
five gold. One highlight was when Lim Wei Wen brought home the country's
first fencing medal - a bronze. More medals were won, not just from
swimming and table tennis, but from other sports too. "All these speak
well for the fact that we have started to now level up all the sports in
Singapore," said Low Teo Ping, vice-president of the Singapore National
Olympic Council.
Looking ahead, Mr Low hopes team sports such
as rugby and hockey can also achieve success. "The challenge with team
sports is really in numbers,” he said. “The SEA Games that we're hosting
will give the opportunity for some of the team sports to really do well
and also use that as a launching pad in order to really build from
there and go into the region and make a mark for themselves."
The expectations are now on the athletes to deliver at the SEA Games, which Singapore will host in June 2015.

Blood testing to be used for first time at 2015 Southeast Asian Games
Next year's Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Singapore will be the first edition of the event to make use of blood testing, the Chef de Mission of the host nation has announced.
The recent failed drug tests of Malaysia's wushu exponent Tai Cheau Xuen and world number one badminton player Lee Chong Wei have sent shockwaves through sport in the region.
Xuen tested positive for the banned stimulant sibutramine, leading to the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) taking away the gold medal she had won in the nanquan and nandao all-round event at the Asian Games.
Wei is due to learn his fate at a disciplinary hearing in Amsterdam on December 8.
Speaking at the meeting of the Chefs de Mission, at which the 11 competing countries previewed some of the tournament venues, Nicholas Fang confirmed that testing will now be introduced at the 2015 SEA Games.
"It's ground-breaking and it's a stricter protocol to catch drug cheats, which we also implemented for the 2010 Youth Olympic Games held here," said Fang.
"During the build-up, and not just at the Games itself, testing will also be carried out.
"Anti-Doping Singapore is also working with athletes to reinforce the point that there is no room for doping or cheating."
Cambodia National Olympic Council secretary general, Vath Chamroeun, also spoke of how his country had set up a National Anti-Doping Agency last year to educate athletes on how to avoid being caught up in drug scandals unwittingly.
"Coaches, athletes and sports federations have to control the doping issue strictly, and send out the message that doping can destroy their future," he said.
"Many athletes in Asia don't know what they are doing when they take certain energy drinks or use traditional medicine."
Southeast Asia has also picked up an unwanted reputation for being a match-fixing hotspot, and Philippines Chef de Mission Julian Camacho urged all countries to be on high alert.
"Match-fixing is not just happening in this region, but also in Europe," he said.
"While it may not be as rampant as doping, we still need to be on our toes."
Even though the spectacular Opening and Closing Ceremonies were sold out at last year's SEA Games in Myanmar, it was also noted for poor attendances in certain events, but Fang is confident of a good turnout next year.
"This will be a special SEA Games, which will be a big part of our [Singapore] SG50 [independence] celebrations," he said.
"It has been quite a while since we last hosted one in 1993, and there are a lot of expectations and excitement to watch the SEA Games at home.
"The buzz has been building for many years and our athletes have been doing well recently.
"It has also been announced that the events will be spread around the island and 50 per cent of the events will be free for the public to attend.
"So I'm confident there will be an enthusiastic crowd turning up to support the SEA Games."

Fourth place in 2015 SEA Games is 'doable'
MANILA, Philippines – The chef de mission of the Philippine
delegation to the 28th Southeast Asian Games is confident that the
country can improve on its subpar performance from the biennial
competition's 2013 edition.
Team Philippines could only muster a seventh place finish in the 2013
SEA Games but chef de mission Julian Camacho, who is also the head of
the Wushu Federation of the Philippines, is optimistic about the 2015
edition of the event, which will be held in Singapore on June 5 to 16.
"We'll definitely do better than seventh," Camacho said, as quoted by Quinito Henson on The Philippine Star. "I think fourth place is doable."
Camacho believes the Philippines can get five gold medals each from
medal-rich events like athletics, swimming, gymnastics, canoeing, and
shooting, as well as three more golds from 10 other sports including
boxing, taekwondo and billiards.
"That will add up to 55 gold medals, which should be good enough for
fourth place," he said. "Of course, we can generate more golds from
other sports."
The Philippines brought home only 29 gold medals in the 2013 SEA Games, the country's lowest ever output.
Camacho said they are planning to send a delegation of 300 to 400
athletes in Singapore, and that the country will participate in 32 or 33
sports.
Ten percent of the athletes who will be sent to Singapore are in the
"developmental" category, Camacho told Henson, which is in accordance to
the guidelines set by Philippine Olympic Committee president Jose
Cojuangco Jr.
"We want to expose our young athletes to international competition
early," Camacho explained. "If an athlete doesn't meet the qualifying
standards, but is close or has the potential to improve in the future,
we'll consider inclusion in the delegation on a selective basis."
The Philippines last ruled the SEA Games in 2005, when the country hosted the event. It has not made the top three since then.

Foreign coaches eyed for SEAG bets
In a bid to strengthen the country’s chances in making more heads
turn in the 28th Southeast Asian Games in Singapore, the Philippine
Sports Commission (PSC) intends to hire the services of foreign coaches
on a short-term basis.
PSC chairman Richie Garcia said some national sports associations
have been asking the agency to help them hire foreign coaches as they
rev up for the June 5 to 16 sportsfest.
“A small number of NSAs want us to fund their acquisition of foreign
coaches and we will help them with this request,” said Garcia, who did
not name the few NSAs.
Garcia, however, noted that the experts who will be imported will likely spend “around three to four months.”
“They’ll be here just for the SEAG preparation of the athletes,”
added Garcia, noting that the agency simply is not ready yet to hire
them more than four months.
Still, there are NSAs that have been joined by foreign coaches for
years but these the sports that have a track record to speak of like
wushu and taekwondo.
Singapore is staging competitions in 36 sports totaling 402 events
and the Philippines will take part in 33 sports as it aims to break free
from its lowly finishes since 2007.
In the 2013 Myanmar SEAG, the Philippines sank to its lowest
ever—seventh place—after finishing fifth in 2007 (Thailand), sixth in
2009 (Laos) and fifth again in 2011 (Indonesia).
Singapore SEAG chief of mission Julian Camacho the Philippines can
capture at least 40 gold medals, a number enough to propel it to a fifth
or fourth spot in the 11-nation regional meet.
But Garcia cautions Camacho from issuing these numbers saying host
Singapore will be out there to assume a place among the top gold medal
producers.
There is also Myanmar, which figured prominently in the last SEAG, stressed Garia.
Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam are expected to slug it out for the
top three places with Malaysia at least good for fourth to sixth places
alongside Singapore, Myanmar and the Philippines.
