If before this the PNS team fails to bring home any medal, this year PNS created a major upset. The PNS team won four of the seven events entered, For the first time the PNS ladies futsal team which was given the nickname Wonder Bees emerged as champions beating Bank Rakyat in the final. The PNS bowling team came in second while the netball team and men's futsal came in third respectively. It was the best achievement by PNS.
