Singapore hosting Youth Olympics Games 2010


Singapore - The inaugural Youth Olympics Games (YOG) to be held in 2010 boiled down to 2 countries - Singapore and Moscow, Russia. This YOG will features athletes from ages 14 to 18 and will be held once every 4 years. Today, is an exciting day because the 105 IOC (International Olympic Committee) members will vote on who will get to host the inaugural YOG in 2010.

I was up watching the live news announcement by the IOC President Jacques Rogge in the evening and when they announced the Singapore won the right to host this event in 2010 - I was so happy and proud.

Singapore epitomises Youthfulness as we are a small and young nation.

Congratualations to Singapore on winning the first Youth Olympics Games 2010 to be held on 14-26 August 2010.
