History[edit]

Sport Singapore was founded on 1 October 1973 as the Singapore Sports Council (SSC), through the merger of the National Sports Promotion Board (NSPB) and the National Stadium Corporation (NSC).[1] On 1 April 2014, the SSC was renamed Sport Singapore in a rebranding exercise.[2]

In 2019, the SafeSport Commission was set up by Sport Singapore in partnership with the Ministry of Social and Family Development, the Singapore Police Force, and the Singapore Ministry of Education in 2019 to clamp down on the abuse and harassment of athletes in sport.[3]
