We made history!

In the lead up to the Aviva Open Singapore 2009, title sponsor Aviva organised a record attempt for World’s Largest Badminton Rally: Number of Participants. The objective was to involve the community in the Aviva Open Singapore – instead of being mere spectators at the tournament, members of the public could also participate in an event to showcase their own speed, agility and precision, and be a part of history.

Over 600 people of all ages turned up with their racquets at Raffles City on 23 May 2009 for the attempt. One by one, they each took a shot at keeping the shuttlecock in the air.

The rally was kick started at 10:30 am and the record was eventually set at 2:55pm with an amazing total of 96 different people each hitting a shot in one continuous rally.

My participation in the record making attempt would not have been possible if my boss didn't allow me a few hours off as I was involved in the children exhibition at suntec lelvel 3 from friday to sat! thanks again!

I also got a few goodie bad and a shirt..and I won 2 season tickets to watch the aviva badminton open at indoor stadium live for the first time!!!! =)
