Singapore Disability Sports Council

26 to 28 April 2007 (Thu - Sat)
Singapore Management University

Be an athlete. Be a coach. Be a caregiver.

Aspire. Achieve. Inspire.

Dare to dream. We’re here to help you.

This conference embodies SDSC’s pursuit for a well-rounded approach to promote the disability sports scene. Instead of the traditional Come-and-Play Day, SDSC brings you a rare opportunity to hear from experts on what disability sports is about, and how you can pursue a career in this industry, as an athlete/coach/caregiver/volunteer or even club establisher! Learn how sports can help you or your loved one lead life healthily and actively, and interact with many others who have achieved self-fulfilment through sports.
