After delayed for quiet some time, SDBF was finally held on 17-18th August 2013. And as scheduled, we were participating. The race distance was shortened from 800m to 500m hence smaller room for errors and mistakes on the boat.

We are boat no. 6! |
Same with last year competition, we gave good fight on our first heat thus giving us chance to qualify for semi finals through repechage. On our repechage we finished the third position and still that result qualifies us for semi finals!
On semi finals we met with German, Gaelic, and Filipino Dragons. Quiet formidable "enemies". And we finished on the fourth position, which means we can't continue to minor final anymore.
Although we didn't win anything this time, we bring home valuable lessons. This was first competition experience for some of our new paddlers. Congratulations!
Hope we can continue to train hard, build our team work, and keep the spirits going!
