Message from Head of Campus
Dear Participants,
It is my pleasure to welcome the SEASAC member schools and their athletes, coaches and parents to Singapore and the United World College of South East Asia’s East Campus for SEASAC Basketball. The South East Asia Sports and Activities Conference provides opportunities for students to engage in healthy competition, pursue excellence, experience diverse social and cultural interactions and develop friendships within our South East Asian region. Sport itself provides the unique opportunity to perform both individually and as a team; this is especially true with basketball. Months of practice, effort, and training will be expressed in performances over the competition. May your success be measured not only by your times but also through your sportsmanship, camaraderie and your willingness to commit your full effort. As an outdoorsman, educator and keen athlete, UWC founder Kurt Hahn is famous for having used the motto, "Plus est en vows” - there is more in you than you think. I hope this opportunity allows you to find something deep inside yourself that you did not know existed, be it an unexplored tolerance of pain, a new depth of drive, or an as yet unfound wellspring of determination. I hope you exceed your expectations this weekend and enjoy the unique experience that only competitive sport can provide. Dr. James Dalziel |
