All of the 10 International Teams in Singapore (American, British, German, Australian, Canadian, Filipino, Irish, Japanese, Hong Kong, Spanish) have lots of people there just to paddle and have fun. All of these teams are open to all nationalities, and I know at least most of them have lots of Singaporean members.
Of course, teams from this league have at times placed in the top three in SDBF women's, men's, and mixed national championship events too (including winning the Mixed National Championship) and won the Inter-Club division. So, a strong competitive side too.
Glad to see some others that can "come out" and be proud of their team. Waiting to see if any students can manage such an apparently bold feat?
