The circuit breaker measures in Singapore are in place from 7 April 2020 to 1 June 2020. During this period, our athletes are unable to continue training. We speak to the athletes and the coaches to learn more about how they are continuing to keep fit.
Athlete Q&A with Toh Wei Soong, Suhairi Suhani and Steve Tee
As part of our brand new series, ‘Athlete Q&A’, we conduct an in-depth interview and discussion with some of our athletes.
For our third edition, we speak with three athletes, Toh Wei Soong, Suhairi Suhani and Steve Tee, as Singapore prepares to exit the circuit breaker. You may find them familiar – they are the faces of SDSC’s campaign #DefyLimits, where they shared about their sports journey and the importance of the community.

#DefyLimits Campaign
Defy Limits is SDSC’s fundraising campaign for 2020. We celebrate and tell the stories of three hero athletes, Suhairi Suhani, Toh Wei Soong and Steve Tee, and how they have all defied limits in their pursuit of sporting excellence.
You can read more about their stories here, and donate online here. All donations will be channeled towards SDSC’s programmes and to offset the cost of competing and training for our athletes in 2020. The campaign ends on 29 December 2020.
