PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian swimming team were caught by surprise with coach Eric Anderson announcing his resignation just days after returning from the SEA Games campaign in Thailand.

Anderson will no longer be coaching the national swimming team as the Canadian has mutually agreed with Malaysia Aquatics to conclude his appointment by Dec 31 as he seeks greener pastures abroad.
