Meet Coach Serena ​

​

Serena Yang’s track record is indeed an impressive one and what makes up for her petit frame is her huge passion and tremendous determination and perseverance towards the sport.

​

Awarded twice, the Best Female Swimmer by her home state of Sarawak, she has also represented Malaysia at a few international swimming meets. She has made it into the finals of SUKMA, clocking a blazing 4 minutes and 45 seconds in a 400metres and 1 minute and 02 seconds in a 100m Freestyle races.

​

Believe it or not, she only started dabbling in triathlon in 2015 – without knowing how to ride a bicycle! After a few broken bones while learning how to ride and a couple more years of intensive training, she has progressed much, winning her first National Championship in 2017 and qualifying for Commonwealth Games 2018.

​

In 2019, she made it as part of the national time in the SEA Games – achieving this while managing the challenge of becoming a mother in the same year, all the while juggling baby care with racing; not to mention training to get race ready from a 10kg heavier post-pregnancy weight in less than 8 months!

​

You can certainly look forward to her energy, passion, knowledge and experience in the sport.
