Our Story

In 2015, Sport Singapore launched ‘Team Nila’ as the new sport volunteer brand on 24 February in the lead up to 28th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games. The brand serves to not only continue the legacy of ‘the Purple Army’ by creating a common identity for sport volunteers, but also forge a sense of belonging and instil a sense of pride among all sport volunteers.
Embodying Team Nila’s values of Courage, Passion and Friendship, our sport volunteers have been dedicating many hours to serve the community through our 5 giving platforms which includes Academies & Clubs, Active Health, Sporting Events, SportCares and Sport Centres.
As the Positive Driving Force in Singapore, Team Nila looks into the future to transform sport volunteerism by expanding its scope of volunteering and growing its capabilities to contribute in new and innovative ways while continuing to inspire the Singapore Spirit through sport.
