4th Kawan Athletics Championship (Photo)

2023's Finale: A Bang with the Kawan Family!


As the year draws to a close, our Kawan family gathers to celebrate the spirit of sportsmanship with a championship that feels like home. This year was extra special with a surprise twist — a hearty welcome to the Erovra Club from Singapore! Their enthusiastic 'Yes, we are coming!' brought a friendly rivalry and excitement to our meet, making it a day filled with shared laughter and competitive spirit we'll all remember.


🌟 This Year's Highlights! 🌟


Cross-Training with Erovra Club: Huge shout-out to Coach Peter and Coach Richmond from Erovra Club for steering a fab session with the U12s, brimming with giggles and high spirits! Everyone loved the warm-up and reaction games, especially the aeroplane drill that got us all balancing like pros. And let's not forget the Kawan big boys who took charge of warming up the others.


Farm Fresh Adventure: Post-training, both teams enjoyed a lively tour at Farm Fresh. The day was packed with fun, from sipping on cool Boba drinks to bouncing along on tractor rides. It was a super crowded Saturday, but we made the best of it with a tractor ride — wish it was even bumpier for the extra giggles! Though we only saw a few geese and fish during the ride, the kids loved feeding the other farm animals. Bumpy or not, it was a ride filled with laughter and joy!


League Competition Highlights - A Fierce Race to Victory!: This year's League Competition was intense with athletes across houses vying for top points. Congrats to RED HOUSE for clinching the title with 613 points and kudos to GREEN HOUSE for a close 545.5 points as runners-up. Well done to all for a season of outstanding performances!



Local Pride in Action: Big cheers to the schools that are part of the Kawan Athletics family - SJK(C) Kuen Cheng 1, SJK(C) Salak South, and Wesley Methodist International School. You all didn't just show up; you soared, setting personal bests left and right! It was like watching future champions in the making, each race filling the air with unbeatable energy. Your hard work and dedication have paid off in big ways, and we couldn't be prouder. And a special shout-out to our guests from SMK Taman SEA, who journeyed from Petaling Jaya to join us!



Master Category Takes the Stage: To our Super Moms and Dads, you outdid yourselves! Nearly all of you smashed your personal bests. And a playful nudge to the moms – let's give Super Mom Iffy some friendly competition next time!


Parents Relay – Laughter and Cheers All Around: What a sight! Parents from Singapore and Malaysia teamed up for a relay filled with unexpected turns and joyful tumbles. Despite the chaos and a flying baton or two, every face was beaming at the finish line.
