SINGAPORE - The ailing performance of Singapore's male sprinters and the high attrition rates among national athletes are some of the factors that have prompted the launch of a new sprints programme, led by national relay coaches Hamkah Afik and Melvin Tan.
A total of 48 athletes and their coaches have been invited to attend the launch of the programme on Saturday (July 7). The selection criteria for boys is 11.3sec and below for 100m and 22.8 and below for 200m. For girls, it is 13 and 26.4 respectively.
