520 1 _a"The value in engaging in sport cannot be overemphasized. It leads to a healthier lifestyle, a greater sense of wellbeing and a career in sport. In Why be a Champion?, Teo Aik Cher highlights key characteristics that athletes possess to make them champions. In his absorbing and amiable style, he uses the word "Champion" as an acronym and delves into the distinctive traits that athletes possess and what makes these champions tick. Discover with him the world of sporting excellence and what goes into cultivating a champion mindset. "Why be a Champion? is the roadmap written to inspire and guide teenagers to stay on the straight and narrow path. Many sports and games have been covered in this book, featuring both male and female, as well as able and disable champions; they come from so many parts of the world and they include our very own Singapore champions."-- C. Kunalan
