PAP Members of Parliament Xie Yao Quan and Poh Li San filed questions about the support that athletes in Singapore received, as well as future plans to attract world-class coaches.
Mr Tong mentioned the High-Performance System , a S$70 million a year programme that provides elite athletes end-to-end support and development. Part of this support is personalised training, as well as counselling, sport science and medicine under one component called the Daily Training Environment.
“The Government’s support for our elite athletes is not just a matter of dollars and cents, not just financial support, it’s not just about coaching … It also extends to many other aspects of our athletes’ lives. The government invests in the system, and continually enhances it so that our athletes will be supported and developed in a way that best addresses their individual needs and maximises their potential. The focus is on enabling each athlete to be at their best, do their best, and succeed against the best,”
