Unicaja Malaga defeated NBA G-League 71-61 on Sunday night in front of an electrified crowd at the Singapore Indoor Stadium PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG / ALDRICH GOH The third consecutive FIBA Intercontinental Cup (FIBA ICC) in Singapore wrapped up last night with Spanish club Unicaja Malaga becoming the first team to successfully defend their their crown in 47 years. The Basketball Champions League Europe winners defeated NBA G League United 71-61 in the Final, repeating the outcome from last year's championship game at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. This result raises Europe's silverware tally in the FIBA Intercontinental Cup to 24 trophies, with Spanish clubs accounting for 12 of those conquests. Their compatriots Real Madrid were the last team to win consecutive FIBA Intercontinental Cup trophies, claiming three in a row from 1976 to 1978. On the other hand, NBA G League United finished second in back-to-back seasons, after becoming the first team from the USA to reach the Final since 1974. Unicaja, who represented Europe by virtue of winning their second consecutive Basketball Champions League in May, won the Final by overcoming an early 12-point deficit. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH A strong 23-5 third quarter paved the way to a double digit lead of their own, and with their stellar defence producing 19 turnovers by the opponents, Unicaja successfully defended their title. Player of the Game, Kendrick Perry, finished the championship game with 11 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, playing a crucial role in that third quarter that turned the game around. The Most Valuable Player of the FIBA Intercontinental Cup 2025 was Tyler Kalinoski. Another 32-year-old, Kalinoski knocked down 9-of-10 three-pointers in the first two games, then followed it up with a 12-point performance in the Final. "First off, winning the championship is always my first priority. I'm a player who always had pride in doing the little things to help the team win, whether that's me scoring 20 points in a game, or me scoring zero and getting rebounds and playing defense. That's always on my mind first," Kalinoski shared. "I can't lie. It does feel really good to finally get one. I've been up there a few times, but at the end of the day, we've had some amazing players, every time somebody's got it - they deserved it. As much as this means, the big trophy means more for me." Over the past two FIBA Intercontinental Cup editions in Singapore, Kalinoski has shot 22-of-36 from beyond the arc. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH Earlier on Sunday, Al-Ahli SC became the first African team to finish on the podium.

Singapore's Garmin Virtual Run 21.1km winner chats about his Garmin Run Taipei experience with SportPlus.sg, looks to improve further in the near future Raymond Sng (left) at the Garmin Run Taipei shakeout run. PHOTO: GARMIN TAIWAN Singapore’s running scene has seen many rising stars, but one name that has recently stood out is Raymond Sng , the winner of the Garmin Virtual 21.1km Run Singapore 2025 . His victory didn’t just earn him the recognition of being the fastest half marathoner in this year’s virtual edition—it also secured him an exclusive trip to participate in Garmin Run Taipei , where he joined some of the best athletes across the region. We sat down with Raymond to talk about his journey, his Taipei experience, and what lies ahead in his running career. A Pleasant Surprise: Winning the Garmin Virtual Half Marathon When asked how it felt to clinch the title, Raymond shared his excitement: “It was definitely a pleasant surprise! I took part in this series last year as well but fell short of the podium spots, so it’s good to see that I’ve been able to improve my fitness over the past year and cut down my half marathon time.” His persistence is a clear reminder that consistency and dedication can make all the difference in distance running. Raymond Sng (centre) on stage post event to receive his virtual run prize. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG Experiencing Garmin Run Taipei For many runners, the chance to race overseas is a dream. For Raymond, Garmin Run Taipei was more than just a race—it was an eye-opening experience. “It was truly an enriching and enlightening trip, seeing the established runners and learning from them in terms of routine and discipline! They’re also much more personable in real life, which was a great bonus. Taiwan in general is very hospitable and the food is amazing too!” Raymond (far right) bursts out of the starting blocks in the 21.1km distance event. PHOTO: GARMIN TAIWAN Standing Shoulder-to-Shoulder with Elite Athletes One of Raymond’s biggest highlights from the trip was starting alongside some of Asia’s most well-known runners. “Honestly, I think the highlight of the trip would be toeing the start line with esteemed athletes such as Hong Beom Seok from Physical: 100 and the diva Earth Oscar . Being part of this Garmin trip allowed us to experience a taste of being at the front of the line for the race—it’s definitely an opportunity that’s hard to come by!” This once-in-a-lifetime moment reflects Garmin’s commitment to providing unique experiences for its community of runners. Raymond Sng (far right) counts down to the start of the race. PHOTO: GARMIN TAIWAN The Value of Garmin’s Regional Running Series Raymond believes that Garmin’s multi-country running series is helping to shape the sport across Asia. “Having many iterations to work towards makes the running journey easier to maintain, as it gives a structured way to attain milestones through the series in different countries. It also helps you forge common experiences with other athletes, making it feel more cosy and homely.” This sense of community is what continues to draw both elite and recreational runners into Garmin’s events. What’s Next for Raymond? The journey doesn’t stop here. Raymond revealed that he will be part of Garmin Run Singapore 2025 , not as a competitor this time, but as a pacer. “Yes! In fact I’ll be pacing Garmin Run Singapore in October, 3 weeks from now. Hope to see you guys there and help some of you clock in a new PB!” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG Beyond that, his eyes are set on bigger personal goals: “As usual, I’ll be trying to go for the elusive sub-3 in the KL Standard Chartered Marathon. Thereafter, I’ll be setting my sights on the Singapore National Championships for the half marathon category. It’ll be tough to race both in tropical conditions, but if I manage to do well, it’ll be a good confirmation of fitness.” Conclusion Raymond Sng’s story is more than just about winning—it’s about perseverance, growth, and seizing opportunities to connect with the wider running community. His Garmin journey has not only elevated his performance but also strengthened his passion for the sport. With races lined up and ambitious goals ahead, Raymond is undoubtedly a runner to watch in Singapore and beyond. #GarminRunAsiaSeries #FromZeroToHero

META : Time : Trials 2025 commences with Athletes Photoshoot and Opening of Race Expo Pack Collection PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG / JOHN YEONG Bangkok, 12September 2025 — The streets of Bangkok are buzzing this Friday as elite and invitational runners from across Southeast Asia arrive ahead of one of the region’s most anticipated road‐racing events — ASICS META : Time : Trials Thailand 2025 . With the race day set for Sunday, 14 September, at the newly selected route at Rama 8 Bridge & Park, anticipation is high among athletes, organisers, and the local running community alike. Southeast Asia’s Running Stars Touch Down From early this morning, coaches, ASICS ambassadors, and athletes representing Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, and beyond have been arriving in Bangkok. Many are coming directly from training camps; others flying in today to acclimatise and complete final preparations. This is more than just a 10K race — it's become something of a regional gathering of running elites and ambitious amateurs. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG   / JOHN YEONG For several of these athletes, META : Time : Trials doesn’t just offer a chance to test their fitness; it’s a platform to launch their personal bests, perform under pressure, and gain regional visibility. Many are also taking this opportunity to connect with their peers — forging friendships, sharing tips, and soaking up the energy in Bangkok before race day. Invitational Photoshoots & the Start List Reveal One of the highlights leading up to Sunday is today’s photoshoot for invitational athletes, part of the build-up to the official start-list announcement. These shoots are more than promotional — they are rituals of identity. When runners stand in their poses, branded gear in place, cameras flashing against the backdrop of Bangkok, it sets the tone: performance meets persona. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG   / JOHN YEONG Invitational athletes are those who, by virtue of past results or regional standing, are expected to contend for top places. Their names will headline the start list, and today’s images will be used in media, social channels, and race graphics to build excitement. Fans will get a first look at who’s in form, who to watch, and where possible surprises may come from. The Venue: Rama 8 Bridge & Park — New Stage, Fresh Routes This year’s race shifts to Rama 8 Bridge & Park, a change from previous years. Located in Phra Nakhon along the Chao Phraya River, the site offers a scenic mix of riverside views, early morning light, and arguably more engaging terrain compared with past courses. The 10K route introduces fresh curves and includes sections designed to challenge pacing, especially in the early kilometres where runners fight to settle in. Race day will start early (≈ 4:30 AM) to avoid Bangkok’s heat and humidity. Organisers expect the route to draw both seasoned athletes aiming for a bang‐on time and recreational runners hungry for a meaningful experience. For many, the opportunity is to push past last year’s limits, with the setting of Rama 8 adding a new layer of novelty. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG   / JOHN YEONG What to Expect Sunday Personal Bests (PBs) will be in the spotlight. The META : Time : Trials is built around performance — every runner has a target time, and many of the invitational athletes will aim to crack previous records. Strong regional representation, which means rivalries, surprises, and stories beyond just who finishes first. Athletes like Dora Lau from Singapore have already shared how much the cross-border competition means to them. Atmosphere & community energy — the early morning warm-ups, the chants / cheers from fellow runners, ASICS ambassadors, supporters, and spectators along the route. Events like this are as much about the shared experience as the stopwatch. Media / digital engagement — with photos, start list announcements, social media buzz, and post-race coverage expected to be heavy. Today’s invitational athlete shoot gives media assets to fuel the story. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG   / JOHN YEONG Looking Ahead When the starter pistol fires this Sunday, it will mark not just another race, but a milestone for ASICS in Thailand and Southeast Asia. New route, regional talents, and renewed energy all point to an event that could see breakthrough performances. For those following from afar, keep an eye out for the official start list, athlete profiles (many released alongside or soon after today’s photoshoot), and post-race interviews. The winners will get their due, but some of the best stories might come from those who battle their way through the early hills of Rama 8 or those personal challenges behind the scenes. #ASICSMETATIMETRIALS #FindYourSpeed #SoundMindSoundBody

The shared mission was clear: shave seconds, smash limits, and redefine what’s possible. And for many, that’s exactly what happened. Reports flooded in of personal bests obliterated, finish-line tears of joy, and strangers-turned-pacers pushing each other through the final kilometers. This was racing at its purest—raw, fast, and deeply personal. Singapore’s Goh Chui Ling is a 2-time winner of the Time Trials but was not looking to compete this year. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS / HANA BASIR Bangkok’s Rama VIII Bridge: A Landmark Reimagined There are few moments in life when you can run full speed across one of Bangkok’s most stunning landmarks, and the ASICS META: Time: Trials offers exactly that. For one morning only, the Rama VIII Bridge transformed into a runner’s paradise—no traffic, no chaos, just open road and open hearts. The stunning views and city skyline framed a race defined by passion and precision. And while the elite athletes stole the spotlight, every participant was a champion in their own right—proving that speed isn’t just about winning; it’s about growing. The spirit of the ASICS regional community is proof that culture cannot be replicated through shortcuts but needs to be built from the ground up. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS / HANA BASIR A Sound Mind in a Sound Body Backed by ASICS’ global mantra of #SoundMindSoundBody, today’s event celebrated the mental strength and physical power that running uniquely cultivates. From the first horn to the final finisher, the META: Time: Trials wasn’t just about numbers—it was about connection, courage, and community. Singapore’s Shah Feroz crosses the finish line. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS / HANA BASIR Final Thoughts The 2025 ASICS META: Time: Trials Thailand delivered more than just podium finishes—it delivered moments that runners will carry with them long after the roads reopen. Whether you’re a national champion or a first-time 10KM finisher, one truth remains: there’s no better feeling than running faster than you ever thought you could. Until next year, Bangkok. #ASICSMETATIMETRIALS #SoundMindSoundBody

Separating fact from fiction on hydration—Ng Xuan Jie shares the truth about staying fuelled and why 100PLUS Active goes beyond water PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG / HANA BASIR When it comes to running, cycling, or any endurance sport, hydration is one of the most misunderstood aspects of training. Many athletes and everyday fitness enthusiasts still fall for old myths—sometimes leading to poor performance, or worse, dehydration. To clear things up, we turned to Ng Xuan Jie , a Team Singapore National Duathlete and SEA Games athlete, as well as a Team 100PLUS ambassador . With years of competing at the highest level, Xuan Jie knows first-hand the difference proper hydration can make. And with 100PLUS Active , she shows us why smarter hydration is key for staying ahead. Just like in our shoot, hydration myths are symbolised as colourful water balloons—dramatically bursting to reveal the truth. Let’s dive in. PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANA BASIR Myth 1: “You only need water to stay hydrated” 💧💥 The Truth : While water is essential, it isn’t always enough—especially for athletes. During long or intense training sessions, you lose electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and chloride through sweat. Without replacing them, your body struggles to retain fluids, leading to fatigue, muscle cramps, or slower recovery. “Electrolytes help me retain fluids and stay hydrated longer,” Xuan Jie explains. “When I’m running or cycling, plain water just doesn’t cut it. I need hydration that keeps up with my body’s needs.” This is where 100PLUS Active comes in. As a non-carbonated isotonic sports drink, it replenishes both fluids and electrolytes efficiently—making it superior to just water for athletes on the move. PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANA BASIR Myth 2: “I only need to hydrate during exercise” 🏃‍♀️🚴💥 The Truth : Hydration isn’t just about what you drink mid-workout. Pre- and post-training hydration are equally crucial for peak performance and recovery. Drinking 30–60 minutes before exercise helps prevent early dehydration, while replenishing after a tough session ensures your muscles recover faster. “Our hydration needs are different from person to person,” says Xuan Jie. “It depends on how much we sweat, the weather, and how active we are. That’s why I drink according to my body’s needs—not a fixed rule.” With its electrolyte balance and added B vitamins, 100PLUS Active helps athletes like Xuan Jie perform strong and recover right—before, during, and after every run or ride. PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANA BASIR Myth 3: “All hydration drinks are the same” 🥤💥 The Truth : Not all drinks are created equal. Some sports drinks contain excess sugar, while others don’t replenish the essential electrolytes you actually lose when sweating. “All drinks hydrate? Not exactly. The right hydration fuels performance,” says Xuan Jie. “Not all hydration drinks replenish what you lose through exercise. That’s why I choose 100PLUS Active —it keeps me going.” Unlike regular soft drinks or plain water, 100PLUS Active is specifically formulated for active individuals. Its isotonic formula ensures faster fluid absorption, while electrolytes and B vitamins give your body the support it needs to perform at its best. Think of it this way: when training gets tough, the right hydration doesn’t just refresh you—it makes you unbreakable. PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANA BASIR Hydrate Smarter, Perform Stronger As the final sprint scene plays out, Xuan Jie raises her bottle of 100PLUS Active , celebrating another strong finish. The message is clear: hydration myths don’t stand a chance against science—and the right hydration strategy. ✅ Stay hydrated. ✅ Stay strong. ✅ Stay ahead. Don’t believe the myths—hydrate smarter with 100PLUS Active. #100PLUSSG #100PLUSACTIVE

Youth basketball influencer shares his journey ahead of world-class tournament at Singapore’s premier sporting venue PHOTO: JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL This is a feature article written by SportPlus.sg for Kallang Alive Sports Management. For more sports events, programmes and human stories of Singapore Sports Hub , visit the Singapore Sports Hub's ' Here to Play' website . Singapore is once again preparing to host a global sporting spectacle as the FIBA Intercontinental Cup 2025 tips off next month at the Singapore Indoor Stadium , Singapore Sports Hub . Among the special guests is Jackson Cowan , a youth basketball influencer whose journey from the community courts to social media stardom has inspired young athletes across Singapore. This year, Jackson won’t just be watching from the stands. He has been invited to play in the celebrity pro-am match, a dream opportunity to showcase his skills on one of Singapore’s grandest stages. PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL A Basketball Journey Inspired by Family Basketball has been part of Jackson’s life for as long as he can remember. His earliest memories are tied to the game, thanks to his father’s love for the sport. “I’ve been playing basketball my whole life, inspired by my dad, who started playing from a young age himself. Apparently, I first watched him play in the World Masters Games in Sydney when I was only eight weeks old!” His father’s role has been more than just inspirational — he’s been a mentor, coach, and collaborator in Jackson’s journey. “When I started my Instagram account, I was aspiring to play on the varsity basketball team. He instantly wanted to help me. Helping me manage communications on my channel, he became my coach and did everything he could to allow me to push myself as hard as I could in basketball, as well as creating content.” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL Lessons That Stick On and Off the Court Like many teenagers, Jackson admits he doesn’t remember every lesson from his parents — but one in particular has stayed with him. “The lesson that I do remember is: ‘Jackson, sometimes you just need to put things behind you.’ If I miss a shot, I put it behind me and know I can make the next one. If I turn the ball over, I put it behind me and hustle back on defense. It’s also a great life lesson. Like Ted Lasso says, ‘Be a goldfish!’” That mindset has shaped his disciplined daily routine. “Most mornings I’m awake at 5:15 to be on the court from 6:15 to 7:45. I like creating schedules because they give me urgency to do what I need to get done. A good day for me is training in the morning, lifting weights in the afternoon, shooting some content, then ending the night editing videos or finishing homework. Lights out by 9:30 — day done!” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL From Instagram to the FIBA Intercontinental Cup As his social media presence grew, Jackson quickly became more than just a player. His blend of basketball highlights, training sessions, and behind-the-scenes content resonated with youth players across Singapore. But as much as he thrives online, he is eager to prove his skills on the hardwood. “It can be assumed that the ‘basketball influencer’ can’t actually hoop — that he just makes himself look good on camera. But I want to show people that I’ve been working hard to earn the position I’m in right now.” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL That opportunity comes at the FIBA Intercontinental Cup , where Jackson will lace up in front of the biggest audience of his young career. “I am 100% nervous. It might be the largest audience I’ve ever played in front of. But I trust my preparation — once I get in the game, the nerves go away, and all my hard work shines through and I have a ton of fun playing!” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL Learning From the Best at Singapore Sports Hub For Jackson, one of the most exciting parts of the FIBA Intercontinental Cup will be the chance to learn from elite-level talent up close. “I’m really excited to experience how high-level players perform — from walking into the locker room to exiting it hours later. The fun vibes, the deep breaths to stay calm, and the overall intensity players maintain throughout. I also look forward to seeing the camaraderie of the ICC teams from a closer vantage point.” That experience will take place at none other than the Singapore Indoor Stadium at the Singapore Sports Hub , Singapore’s premier sporting venue. “The Singapore Sports Hub has always done a great job of hyping fans up at events. So, I imagine athletes and entertainers also feel that energy when they’re performing. I’ve been to events from Monster Jam to Slingers games, and to now be part of that legacy is something I’ll never forget.” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL From school gyms to a 12,000-seat arena, the jump is not lost on him. “For me this is huge. I’ve only played in school gymnasiums and community centers. Playing in an arena of this size has the potential to be overwhelming — but bring it on!” Beyond Basketball: Content, Creativity, and Challenges While basketball remains his first love, Jackson is also passionate about content creation and filmmaking. “I went to Prodigy Film Camp this summer which really piqued my interest in extending my content to filmmaking. And I’ve also done trial flights where I got to take over the controls of a plane — flying is something I really enjoy too.” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL Of course, the journey hasn’t been without challenges. He recalls missing out on an Under-16 Division 1 team despite months of hard training. “It wasn’t easy, but the encouragement I got from my family and my online community helped me bounce back. In hindsight, it gave me the chance to be the point guard on a Division 2 team, which I may not have had otherwise. That experience shaped me for the varsity team I was aiming for.” His advice to young athletes trying to balance school, sports, and social life reflects the same maturity. “You can’t do everything, or else you’ll do nothing. Pick your priorities and stick to them. For me, it’s basketball, content creation, and school. That sometimes means missing out on other things, but I know what I’m working towards.” PHOTO:  JACKSON COWAN BASKETBALL Looking Ahead Jackson’s eyes remain firmly on the future — both on and off the court. “I want to pursue basketball for as long as possible, and playing in college would be a dream. At the same time, I’m pushing myself in content creation too. To one day play professionally at the Singapore Sports Hub would be incredible.” For now, though, all attention is on the FIBA Intercontinental Cup 2025 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium . As the world’s best teams descend on Singapore, Jackson Cowan will be right there — not just as a spectator, but as part of the story. Fans interested to catch the FIBA Intercontinental Cup 2025 , happening from 18-21 September 2025, can purchase your tickets via Singapore Sports Hub . #Basketball #mySgSportsHub #FIBAICC2025
