On the 11th of December 2009, YTSAs gathered at the airport to welcome back the Team Singapore Water Polo players. They brought tremendous glory to Singapore by clinching the first gold medal in the SEA Games, which is held in Laos, as well as by improving the record of 22 consecutive gold medals to 23!
At the airport, we waited ardently for the players to arrive. During that span of time, we practiced some cheers till it was made perfect.
The water polo team finally arrived at 9pm and were warmly welcomed by our vibrant voices. “G-Double-O-D-J-O-B! Good Job! Good Job!!” We cheered exultantly as each of the players walk past us.
After the team assembled, the welcome back event ended with a photo-taking session. You could tell from the smiles on their faces that they were more than satisfied with their achievement.
Go Team Water Polo!
