Angels World Hopes To Host International Swim Competition
By Sam Barriger

Angeltown, Angels World—Today Angela Hinderson, the President of Angels World, met with the renound national swim team to discuss her plan to host an International swim competition in the capitol of Angels World, Angeltown. She plans to hold the event in the newly built Madison stadium, which was built with water sports in mind, and holds a little over 92,000 people.
“I think the competition will be extremely fun and enjoyable. Swimmers from all over the world will be here, competing against each other to win the first place prize, and international recognition.” President Hinderson said during a recent interview with the Berrytown Gazette. “We hope to have a diverse mix of countries out here, from the very large, to the smaller, lesser known countries around the world. We want the competition to be as multicultural as possible, and we want to include the rest of the world in every aspect of this event.”
The competition will be made up of one hundred competitors, one competitor per country. They will then compete for a spot in the top ten slots in the competition. After the first round of the competition, the top ten competitors with the highest scores will go on to the finals where they will compete against each other for the top five slots.
“There will be five prizes for the five competitors with the highest scores out of the top ten.” President Hinderson says. “Each prize has multiple prizes attached, and we hope the winners will be very satisfied with their winnings.”
She goes on to say that she hopes the International community will be willing to come to a small country like Angels World for an event of this magnitude. “I’m sure there will be a few countries that will refuse to come because they would much rather see this event held in one of the larger nations of the world. But I hope the majority of the International community will agree to participate in this event, where they will be treated with the utmost respect by the people of Angels World.”
Application submissions for the competition begin today, and everyone in Angelstown is holding their breath, waiting to see if the International community will agree to come to Angels World for the competition.

Applicant Name: Eoin Dawson
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Preffered Stroke: Butterfly

I served in The Grand Navy of The Community for four years as a drill instructor, with distinguished service citations after succesfully saving three men during a training excercise. After fulfilling my obligation to my nation, I was honorably discharged and went to instruct swimming and to coach the men's swim team at Esmund University. To this day, the Esmund University Swim Team is still the highest ranked in The Community. I look forward to the opportunity to demonstrate my capacity and to meet others who find themselves most at home in the water.

I have recieved your application, and have reviewed and accepted you as one of the competitors.

Please note that you did not specify the country and region you reside in. That information is required, as I can not make sure that only one applicant per country is selected unless this information is provided.

Dear Eoin Dawson:

Thank you for telling me where you reside. I can now make sure no one else from that country enters the competition unless you withdraw, or are disqualified--both of which, I hope, are unlikely.

Kindest regards:
