One Team Singapore Fund

In March 2017, the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) announced that a sum of $50 million has been pledged to match sports donations, dollar-for-dollar, over the next five years. 

Individual donors, groups or corporations can choose to donate directly to the fund – which will go into the pool of money for High Performance Sport (HPS) – or to a specific National Sports Associations (NSAs). Every dollar donated to the NSA will be matched up to $80,000 (dependent on scheme eligibility). 

For more information regarding OTSF, you may refer to the Team Singapore website here: https://www.teamsingapore.sg/coming-soon

Your donation will help SSF in projects and initiatives that contribute to the High Performance System (HPS). These include but are not limited to: 

• Pathway programme for Team Singapore athletes;
• Coach Development to raise the expertise and professionalism of coaches;
• Provision of Sport Science and Medicine services by Singapore Sports Institute and the National Youth Sports Institute;
