Two swimmers to receive S$10,000 scholarship each under new Joseph Schooling award
An initial S$200,000 fund has been established for the award.
Singapore's first Olympic gold medallist, Joseph Schooling, is establishing a S$200,000 fund to offer a S$10,000 scholarship each to two swimmers. This new initiative aims to inspire and empower the next generation of Singapore's aquatics community. The scholarship recipients will be the first to benefit from the fund, which reflects Schooling's 20% contribution from his Olympic gold medal winnings in 2016.
An initial shortlist of candidates will be interviewed by a committee comprising Schooling, Teo Zhen Ren, and two Singapore Aquatics executive committee members.
