It is the year end of 2016, another year gone by with some activities organized by Yo-Splinter Club. First and foremost, Would like to congrats to all winner and to all who had contribute much to the yoyo scene in Brunei this year. This year we manage to pull off Brunei District Yoyo Contest (BDYC16), with competitors accmulated with most point seeded to Brunei National Yoyo Contest (BNYC16), saving a lots of effort skipping prelim round. With Jayson winning the 3rd round with total 45points, the final round was a death match between Jayson and the remaining players. Aiman beat Jayson and other competitors in the final heat, gaining him a seed place in BNYC16. Everyone improved. Before BNYC, we did a Yo-Splinter Showdown in September, giving players another chance to showcase and hone their skills on stage one more time.
