is there a singapore youth cycling team? if there is, is there a trail?
Hi Interested Cyclist, you can check with your school cycling coach, the National Cycling Association or Singapore Sports Council. I'm sure they can help you get in touch with the relevant people.
May I know where could I find who will be taking part in the competitions for YOG Singapore 2010?
Hi,
There are 205 NOC (National Olympic Committees) that are invited to Youth Olympic Games (YOG).
Each NOC represents one country.
The list is too long to list here.
You can check out the ANOC (Association of the National Olympic Committees) for a list of these 205 countries.
The final list of countries sending athletes to the Singapore Youth Olympic Games can only be confirmed nearer the competition date.
