They were nominated by their respective associations for their Olympic spirit and brilliant performance in international competitions and multi-sports Games.  In recognition of their dedication and effort, SF&OC specially presented a souvenir to each nominee.

Last but not least, the event would not have been so successful and prestigious without the generous support from the commercial sectors of the community.
