KUCHING: The Swinburne Indoor Open 2026 is proving to be a testing ground for regional frisbee players, with Singapore’s Kah Hui noting the wide disparity in standards that has made almost every match a tough contest.
Kah Hui, who is competing in Kuching for the first time, said the tournament has provided a challenging yet enjoyable experience, with teams from across the region bringing varying levels of experience and competitiveness.
“There’s a big range of players with different standards,” she told Sarawak Tribune today.
She added that this diversity has resulted in closely fought matches throughout the competition which began today and conclude tomorrow (Sunday, April 5).
She arrived in Kuching at about 6 pm the day before the tournament and quickly adapted to the competition environment, taking part in her first Swinburne Indoor Open outing.
“This is my first time in Kuching, and also my first time playing in this tournament,” she said.
Kah Hui also noted that she has been involved in frisbee since 2019, although she took a long break from the sport before returning to competitive play.
“I started in 2019, but I stopped for a long period of time,” she said.
She is currently part of a mixed team featuring players from Singapore and other countries, many of whom she met through previous tournaments held in Malaysia.
“Two of us are Singaporeans that I know of. The rest we met in other tournaments in Malaysia, and then we got invited,” she said.
Despite the competitive nature of the tournament, Kah Hui said her team has adapted well so far, though tougher fixtures lie ahead.
“So far so good. Tomorrow we’re going to have a tough matchup,” she added.
The Swinburne Indoor Open 2026 continues to bring together regional teams from Singapore, Brunei, West Malaysia and Sarawak, reinforcing its role as a platform for both experienced and emerging players in the growing frisbee scene.
