The Guys TeamThe guys also come from different background. There are those who are still serving in the army, some already in the working population and many are still students from Polytechnic and Universities in Singapore. The men's team often race in a full-sized dragonboat.
12 of the best paddlers were selected from the men's team to go for the Japan race last year 1997. The guys did well and emerged as the champion team. Notice the guys team (right photo, the boat nearest to our view) making a turn faster than its opponent team. In such a race, it is not a straight course, every team has to make a turn back to the finishing line. The men's team went for the Japan race this year 1998 again. They managed to defend the championship. |
