      The fund was developed to encourage more people to play and enjoy competitive sport, especially for promising athletes who are not supported by the High Performance Sports system.
      "Athletes who represent Singapore at international competitions will get a leg up with the new Temasek Foundation Inspire Fund for Athletes. The fund sets no age limit or restriction on types of sport, so this will benefit a wider base of aspiring athletes. I would like to encourage all eligible athletes to apply and make Singapore proud!”
      Mr Edwin Tong
      Minister for Culture, Community and Youth 
      "The Temasek Foundation Inspire Fund extends support to athletes who require financial backing and we would like to encourage youth athletes to apply for this fund. With NYSI’s focus on the development of youth athletes in high performance sports, we look forward to supporting more youth athletes in their sporting aspirations to further build the Singapore youth sports ecosystem."

      Dr Su Chun Wei
      Director,       National Youth Sports Institute
      “Success is paved by passion and resources. Some of our promising athletes aspire to fly the Singapore flag in the highest arenas of their sport. They will need all the support they can get. The Temasek Foundation Inspire Fund supports these athletes, regardless of age and type of sports, including emerging ones. This is a step forward to enable them to pursue their sporting aspirations, maximise their potential, and do Singapore proud.”
      Mr Lim Hock Chuan 
      Head of Programmes, Temasek Foundation
