Who Wants To Be A Superhero? 🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️ We’re on the lookout 👀 for candidates who possess the talents of a superhero to showcase their skills at the Certis Superheroes Challenge! We’ve had a successful run in 2024, where we brought the challenge to MINDS Towner Gardens School and Metta School and we found 24 superheroes in the making! All the participants went through physical and mental assessments to identify their “Super Ability”. We tested them in throwing, lung capacity, leg power, sprint, grip strength and reaction speed, to help them discover sporting opportunities aligned with their strengths and interests. 💪🏼 Check out how the challenge went! 🤩 Launched in 2022, the Certis Superheroes Challenge aims to identify new para sporting talent and provide pathways for their development and pursuit of excellence in sport. It also gathers essential data to support para sport advancement. Well done to all the participants for joining the challenge and next up, we’ll be heading to Delta Senior School in March to see who has what it takes to be a superhero! Interested in bringing the challenge to your school? Contact SDSC sport officer weeliang.chng@sdsc.org.sg to find out more. 🌟 Thanks to Certis for making this challenge possible! #parasport #Certis #sdsc #CertisGivesBack #DaretoDream

🌟 Wrapping up an impactful year for Focus on Abilities! 🌟 Early in 2024, SDSC hosted Winning Beyond the Podium, a dialogue featuring para athletes, caregivers, and industry leaders like SG Enable and SpexBusiness. This session, supported by Micron Foundation, sparked meaningful conversations on balancing sport and career, paving the way for future workshops supporting life beyond the playing field. The Allianz MoveNow Mentoring Programme, launched in partnership with Allianz Asia Pacific and Halogen Foundation, paired five para athletes with mentors to build critical career skills like financial management and personal branding. Over the course of six months, these one-on-one mentorships left our para athletes with the skills and knowledge needed to transition successfully from academic life to the workforce. We ended 2024 on a high note with the Para Athlete Career Launchpad Series, supported by Micron Foundation. This mini series was dedicated to supporting persons with disabilities and para athletes who are transitioning to the working world or balancing a dual career. Thank you to our amazing partners for championing Focus on Abilities in 2024! ❤ Your invaluable support has paved the way for brighter dual and post-sport careers for our para athletes. ✨ -- Focus on Abilities is an Athlete Life initiative by the Singapore Disability Sports Council (SDSC) that seeks to unite supportive partners and donors to provide comprehensive career support for para athletes. #FocusOnAbilities #EmpoweringParaAthletes #InclusiveFuture #sdsc
✨ Football, Friendship, and Inclusion! ⚽ In collaboration with Chelsea FC, Ascott Limited, and SDSC, students from CPASS had the unforgettable opportunity to participate in a football clinic, celebrating their love for football and fostering inclusivity through sport. Chelsea Football Club legend Gianfranco Zola played a friendly game with CPASS students at the rooftop futsal court in Funan. The football coaching clinic held for able-bodied persons and persons with disabilities was part of The Famous CFC, Chelsea’s flagship international fan engagement event presented by The Ascott Limited (Ascott), underscoring both organisations’ commitment to supporting local communities and promoting disability inclusion. Zola also shared about his football career and answered questions from attendees. In line with Ascott’s and Chelsea’s efforts to promote disability inclusion, proceeds from the charity auction held during their celebratory dinner party were donated to the Goh Chok Tong Enable Fund, which supports persons with disabilities through financial aid. Beyond the pitch, participants enjoyed meeting fellow football enthusiasts and were encouraged to dream big, knowing the power of sport to unite and transform lives. This collaboration exemplifies how partnerships can open doors to meaningful experiences, aligning closely with Singapore’s Disability Sports Master Plan. By providing more accessible and inclusive opportunities, we’re building a future where everyone can thrive in sport and beyond. A huge thank you to Chelsea FC, Ascott Limited, and all supporters who made this event possible. Here’s to more shared victories on and off the field! ⚽💙 📸 Credits: Ascott #InclusionThroughFootball #sdsc #famouscfc #ascott #ascottstarrewards #stayrewarded #chelseafc #gameonstayon
⚡️ Disability Sports 2024 Wrapped ⚡️ Our para athletes have poured their hearts into countless training sessions, pushing their limits week after week. Together, they’ve spent an incredible 150 days in competitions this year—a testament to their dedication and resilience. 💪🎯 2024 has been a year of milestones and celebrations. At the Paris 2024 Paralympics, Yip Pin Xiu dazzled us once again with double golds 🥇🥇, while Jeralyn Tan made history by clinching Singapore’s first-ever Paralympic boccia medal 🥉. On top of that, we warmly welcomed Ms Ho Ching as SDSC’s Patron, and we’re thrilled to work with her to foster a more inclusive sporting community. 🤝💖 This year was also full of firsts! We proudly launched our inaugural Golf Programme ⛳ for the community with the support of the Singapore Golf Association and Keppel Club, and introduced the Merdeka Monkey climbing event 🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️, where 21 visually impaired and sighted climbers united to conquer the heights at Outpost Climbing Gym. As we close the chapter on 2024, let’s celebrate these achievements and look forward to breaking even more barriers in 2025! ✨ Together, we’re shaping a more inclusive and inspiring sporting future. 🌟 (Let us know which day was the toughest by sharing slide 3 on Stories with your answer!) #DisabilitySports #2024Wrapped #InclusivityMatters #BreakingBarriers #ChangeStartsWithUs #sdsc
Two of our para athletes have been working hard to hone their skills and techniques in their sport in preparation for the new year! 🤩 🏸 Para Badminton: Tay Wei Ming headed to Johor Bahru, Malaysia to train at the Saw Badminton Academy by Coach Saw, allowing him the opportunity to practice and exchange knowledge with the Malaysian badminton team and to forge new friendships! After this training camp, he then put his skills to the test at the Bahrain Para Badminton International 2024. He gave his all during the Men’s Singles SU5 event and had to face current World No. 1, Malaysia’s Cheah Liek Hou, and though Wei Ming did not win, he managed to achieve a score of 21-13 and 21-15 in this game. Impressive effort! 🚲 Para Cycling: Muhammad Amsyar recently completed a three-week training camp with the Thai para cycling team in Chiangmai, Thailand! Amsyar gave his all during the intensive training and worked on his endurance, in order to prepare for the 13th Asian Para-cycling Road Championships 2025, and we’re excited to see how he progresses! He shared: “Training with the Thai para cycling team has been fulfilling and I felt welcomed training together with the team. I also liked the terrain that I was training on.” Well done to our athletes and we can’t wait to see them shine in their upcoming competitions! 🌟💪🏼 #ParaBadminton #ParaCycling #parasport #PathtoPerformance #sdsc
