MOE Bounces Highest

 

Ministry of Education (MOE) is the overall champion in this year's Public Service Basketball Tournament in which 31 teams from the various government agencies competed. The Ministry clinched the top and second positions in the Women’s Category as both its teams powered their way to the final held on Saturday, 14 Nov 09 at the Club HDD. In the Men’s Category finals on Friday, 20 Nov 09 at the Toa Payoh Sports Hall, the MOE team had a tougher match against the Mindef team but eventually overcame the opponent to emerge champion. Convenor Mr Wong Liang Han said his teams were “very excited and happy” as “it has been quite a number of years” since they last won it. He credited the the weekly training sessions which gelled them as a team, and the right blend of “youth and experience” for their resounding success.
