SportCares Bursary
The SportCares Bursary aims to increase opportunities for children and youth from low-income families to participate in various programmes offered by ActiveSG Academies and Clubs (A&Cs).
Our aspiration through this initiative is to see SportCares Bursary recipients engage in a healthy lifestyle, learn a new sport, and build a sense of belonging in the community they live in.
Eligibility Criteria
- Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents are welcome to apply.
- Children and youth aged 3 – 16 years old.
- The Bursary recipient and/or applicant must be currently receiving financial assistance from a government or non-profit organisation. Please refer to the table below for examples of eligible financial assistance schemes.
Bursary Coverage
The bursary will cover seasonal participation fees for eight (8) ActiveSG Academies & Clubs (A&C): Athletics, Basketball, Hockey, Tennis, Volleyball, Water Polo, Canoe, and Table Tennis.
Expectations of Bursary Recipients
All SportCares Bursary Recipients are expected to attend at least 70% of the training sessions per season and display sportsmanship conduct during all A&C related sessions. Failure to meet the attendance requirement of 70% per season may result in the suspension of the Bursary.
