President’s Report

2024/25 – A Year of Change and Progress

In our continued drive to raise our game and prepare for the future, 2024/25 was a year of both transformation and progress. From earning the right to host the 2025 Asian Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships, to achieving breakthrough results at Asian international levels and reconfiguring our leadership and technical teams, Singapore Gymnastics has taken bold steps to strengthen its foundations and sharpen its focus. These developments are setting the stage for the next phase of growth, deeper community engagement and performance developments.

October 2024 saw the appointment of Richard Gordon, on secondment from Sport Singapore. Richard comes with expertise in High Performance Management and considerable leadership experience within National Sports Associations (NSAs).

High Performance Technical Director Karen Norden left Singapore in February 2025, after seven years of service. We wish Karen well for her new adventures.

From 1 Dec 2024 Berfin Serdil Ors was appointed as Interim Technical Director for a six-month period. Following an extensive world-wide search, Berfin was appointed as Singapore Gymnastics’ first Performance Director from 1 April 2025.

Berfin is not new to Singapore Gymnastics, having been the Rhythmic Gymnastics Head Coach since 2021. Berfin comes with an exciting list of accomplishments that make her highly suited to her new role. She has a strong pedigree as a former International Rhythmic Gymnast for Turkiye, being a six times National Champion, competing in multiple European and World Championships and was even named Turkish Athlete of the Year in 2005. Berfin has a PhD in Sport Biomechanics with scientific publications in peer reviewed journals. Berfin was Associate Professor in Physical Education and Sport at Aydin Adnan Menderes University and Turkiye’s Rhythmic Gymnastics National Team Coach. Berfin is an example of how sporting excellence and academic attainment can be achieved.

After a year of the High-Performance Manager role being vacant, Nabilah Littleford, a name very familiar in local gymnastics circles, was appointed as SG’s Performance Development Manager. Nabilah was an integral part of Singapore’s most successful WAG Team, winning gold in the SEA Games WAG Team events in 2005, 2007, 2011 and silver in 2003. Since retiring from competitive gymnastics, Nabilah has undertaken a number of different coaching roles and is eminently suited to her new challenge.

Along with Venessa Lim (Performance Development Administrator), the addition of Berfin and Nabilah, means that we have considerably strengthened SG’s technical expertise. Offering new insights and solutions to the analysis of trends in international gymnastics and to shape SG’s system for preparing and fine-tuning gymnasts to achieve success in international Championships and major Games. I am really looking forward to seeing this significant area of our community develop in the future.

In 2024, we welcomed back Gerrit Beltman as WAG Head Coach (April) and welcomed Isaiah Cheng as Events Co-ordinator (November). Daria Simbiriova left her role as Dance and Artistry Coach in December, and we thank her for her contribution.

Planning for a new four-year business cycle, FY26-29

A “kick off” meeting with Board Directors, Chairs of Committees and TAC Leads was held on the new Business Plan in August 2024. The planning session reviewed the current Strategic Plan and Operational Plans FY22-25 along with the existing values, purpose, vision and mission through a session facilitated by Deloitte. A further “check in” on the planning process with the Board and Sub-Committee Chairs and TAC Chairs was held in January 2025.

For the first time ever, Singapore Gymnastics initiated research into the Gymnastics Landscape in Singapore. Portas Consulting undertook the research with a comprehensive report delivered at the beginning of April 2025. This will form the bedrock of our new Business Plan and will be the benchmark against which we will measure ourselves in future years.

Growth in Membership and Clubs

FY24 has seen the continued growth in membership that we have seen since the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. I am very pleased to report that at the end of the membership year (31 December 2024) total membership had increased to 3,152 members. The number of clubs in membership of Singapore Gymnastics has also continued to rise, with 36 now in membership.

High Performance Breakthroughs @ Asian Championships Level

SG was not represented by gymnasts at the Paris Olympic Games in 2024. However, Mr Sng Puay Liang did represent Singapore as a judge for the MAG competition - thank you Mr Sng! We certainly aim to have our gymnasts competing in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games.

We have reason for optimism with the performance of our athletes at the respective 2024 Asian Championships in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Jovi Loh, Asher Pua and Nathanael Pek helped Singapore achieve one of our best ever results at Junior Men’s Asian level, finishing in 8th as a team with a score of 215.029; Jovi won Singapore’s first ever Asian Junior Men’s Artistic Gymnastics medal with a score of 13.366 for the bronze medal in the parallel bars. He also finished a creditable 12th place in the Individual All Around (IAA) event with a score of 74.132. Asher placed 20th in the IAA with a score of 70.532 and Nathanael just behind with a score of 70.365.

In the Junior Women’s Artistic Gymnastics Championships (WAG), Amanda Yap, Colleen Hong, Isabelle Lau and Emma Goh achieved a fantastic fourth place with a team score of 138.329. Amanda won Singapore’s first ever Asian Junior Women’s Artistic Gymnastics medal with a silver medal on the beam, achieving a score of 12.800. She also finished a creditable 7th place in the IAA event with a score of 47.165. Colleen Hong placed 5th on the floor with a score of 12.466 and also finished 13th in IAA with a score of 45.233. Isabelle Lau scored 45.132 and Emma Goh scored 44.998 to attain the best result that Singapore Gymnastics has achieved at a Junior Women’s Asian level.

Nadine Joy Nathan was the only Singapore gymnast selected for the senior WAG competition. Her best result was 13th out of 44 in the IAA with a score of 46.633. Nadine retired soon after these Championships having represented Singapore well over several years and we wish her well for the future.

Mikayla Angeline Yang, Pebbyl Ang and Maeve Teo also represented Singapore in Tashkent for the 2024 Senior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships. Mikayla made her first ever senior Asian Championships final to place 8th in the Ball with a score of 29.050. She also placed 9th in the Individual All Around (IAA) with a score of 113.60. Pebbyl placed 24th with a score of 82.25 and Maeve placed 40th .

Meanwhile Thea Chew (NTC), Mirabelle Yet (BPA), Kate Lee and Kaen Lim (KGA) represented Singapore in the Junior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships. Mirabelle performed well and made two finals, Ball where she placed 7th with a score of 24.70 and Clubs where she placed 8th with a score of 23.40. Thea hit the highest placing of 6th in the hoop with a score of 26.20.

At the 2024 Asian Trampoline Championships, from 11-12 May 2024 in Hong Kong, Hannah Loh (CT Gymnastics) in the female 17+ years age-group won a bronze medal. The first ever Singapore trampoline medal in an Asian championships event. Aidan Hartman (STA) was selected for the male 11-12 years age-group and finished with a bronze medal out of 12 competitors.

We are heartened by all our athletes’ and coaches' dedication and hard work to achieve results in the international arena. We will support them in every way possible to help them meet their potential and continue to break new ground for Singapore Gymnastics.

International Developments

Singapore won the bid to host the 2025 Junior & Senior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships at the AGU Congress which took place in Shanghai in September 2024. The AGU awarded us the 2025 Senior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships, and later also awarded the Junior Championships to run concurrently with the 2025 Oceania Championships in Singapore.

Preparations to host the 2025 Junior & Senior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships preparations were ramped up towards the end of FY2024. The Local Organising Committee (LOC) was formed and Co-Chaired by Liam Mescall (Board Director) and Lawrence Young (HRC member). Additional support was provided by Clarence Yap (Vice President & Board Director), Genevieve Heng (ARC member) and SG staff. Much of the planning and preparation took place in FY2024, and at the time of writing, was delivered successfully in FY2025, details will be presented in the 2025 Annual Report.

The FIG Congress took place in Doha, Qatar in November 2024. This was an election year for FIG, which saw the term of the FIG President, Morinari Watanabe, renewed for a final fouryear term through to 2028. Mr Watanabe is a great friend of Singapore Gymnastics and still the only Asian to hold the position of FIG President.

Governance – A work in progress

The Board has continued our review of SG policies and procedures throughout 2024, for which I thank the dedication and commitment of the committee members and the Board. Notably, there was a substantial review of the Singapore Gymnastics Constitution, for presentation to the 2025 AGM. There was also a significant review of Singapore Gymnastics’ Governance Policy. Both of these important reference documents will be necessary for our submission on the Government’s new Code of Governance after the 2025 AGM. In particular, I would like to thank the Governance Committee for their sterling work throughout the year.

Conclusion

The stability of the Board over the past few years has been a positive feature that has allowed Singapore Gymnastics to develop strong foundations and plans that have been focused on developing the sport in Singapore. Work has continued over this past year to implement succession plan changes within the Board. Four of seven elected positions will be contested at the 2025 AGM, along with the two appointed positions, there will be changes to the Board. I would like to thank all Board Directors who have served over the past 2-4 years. This, coupled with the introduction of a new Business Plan for FY26-29, points to an exciting future ahead.

Treasurer’s Report

Key Headlines

The projected surplus of S$ 102k compares very favourably against a budgeted surplus of S$ 16k. This is despite a shortfall in budgeted sponsorship/fundraising/donations income of S$ 69k where we raised S$ 31k for the Landscape Study at the very end of the financial year.

Although income was approximately S$ 1M less in FY24 than FY23, due to the hosting of the 2023 Asian Artistic Gymnastics Championships and the and the Cartwheelathon fund raising in FY23. Income from self-generated sources: membership, events and education continue to increase year on year by an overall healthy 24.47%. This is significant as we believe this will continue to be a targeted area of growth over the next five years.

We have continued to control expenditure with Secretariat Headcount down approximately S$ 100k in FY24 compared to FY23. There are three main reasons for this: There have been a couple of positions that were not filled or were delayed in being filled through FY24. The CEO’s remuneration was 100% supported by Sport Singapore as he was seconded from Sport Singapore. This will need to be reviewed, and provision will need to be made when this position changes in future. Finally, there has been prudence in expenditure as the organisation makes adjustments to its operations through the year of change. In addition, FY24 Operating Expenses (taking out $ 60 k for the Landscape Study, which was fully funded with Sport Singapore grant, donations and OTSF) were trending flat from FY22 to FY24: S$ 385k v S$ 381k v S$ 381k despite cost inflationary pressures.

In FY24, under NTC, athlete performance breakthroughs were made in the 2024 Asian Junior WAG Championships with Amanda Yap winning Singapore's first ever medal (silver) at this level and Jovi Loh winning Singapore's first ever medal (bronze) at the 2024 Asian Junior MAG Championships. Notably, our Junior WAG Team was placed 4th, the highest we have ever achieved. We supported bursary grants of $48,226 to 11 athletes in the NTCs.

Singapore Gymnastics FY24 reserve position (general and restricted reserves) of S$ 1M+ remains healthy and builds upon the FY23 reserves of S$ 990k.

Below The Headlines

• Overall, self-generated income continues to grow, and Singapore Gymnastics is less reliant on one-off items such as Fundraising Dinners, International Events and ad hoc Fundraising events.

• There was significant growth in Participation and Education from S$ 25k to S$ 125k, an increase of S$ 100k (397%) from FY23. Significantly, this included the once every fouryear expenditure on international judge education as part of the introduction of the new International Code of Points, 2025-2028.

• There has been continued Membership growth from S$ 122k to S$ 141k, an increase of S$ 19k (15.57%) from FY23. It should also be noted that there was no allocation of

Sport Singapore funding to this area, unlike in previous years: FY23 (S$ 18.5k) and FY22 (S$ 21.2k).

• There has been continued growth in Events from S$ 476k (excludes 2023 Asian Artistic Gymnastics Championships) to S$ 510k, an increase of S$ 34k (7.14%) from FY23. Income from SG Nationals was the main reason. There were also contributing surpluses SG Classic and Gymfest of approx. 38%.

• FY25 will see the hosting of the 2025 Junior & Senior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships, which should provide some scope for Singapore Gymnastics to continue to grow event related activity.

Corporate Governance Report

Board Activities

This report provides an overview of the governance activities undertaken by the Singapore Gymnastics Board from April 2024 to March 2025. The Board has met regularly to ensure governance, planning and alignment with the objectives of Singapore Gymnastics. Throughout FY2024, the Board have met formally a total of nine times, with the highest Board Director attendance being 100% and the lowest at 89%.

In addition to regular meetings, Board members participate in decision-making through alternative avenues, including electronic communication and approval of resolutions in writing. This multi-faceted approach underscores the proactive involvement of the Board in shaping Singapore Gymnastics’ trajectory throughout the year.

During the year, the Board continued to implement and review the Board Governance Policy adopted in April 2021. The policy contains the governance practices of the SG Board and acts as a guide on the activities of the Board, as well as the operating activities that have been delegated to management.

To facilitate the efficient discharge of its responsibilities, the Board has appropriately delegated specific functions to its Board Committees. Each Committee adheres to the Terms of Reference endorsed by the Board, further reinforcing the structure and accountability of governance within SG. The Committees of the Board have also met regularly ranging from three to five times during the course of the year. The most frequent have been the Finance and Investment (FIC), Governance (GC) and Audit and Risk (ARC) Committees.

The position of CEO had been vacant from February 2024. During the course of FY2024, a new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) was appointed, Richard Gordon. Having previously been Head of High Performance and Athlete Life (HiPAL) at the Singapore Sports Institute (SSI) at Sport Singapore, he was seconded as Chief Executive effective from 1 October 2024. Singapore Gymnastics warmly welcomes Richard to our community and looks forward to his leadership to grow the community and association.

Also, during FY2024, Karen Norden, who had previously been the Singapore Gymnastics General Manager (GM), from June 2017 to September 2023, and then High-Performance Technical Director (HPTD), from October 2023, resigned from Singapore Gymnastics to pursue other interests. Karen served in Singapore Gymnastics for 7.5 years, during which she helped navigate Singapore Gymnastics through the COVID-19 pandemic and which saw a notable rise in governance standards, which led our organization being awarded the prestigious Charity Transparency and Governance Awards in 2021 and 2022. The Board and national office thanks Karen for her dedicated service and wish her all the best in her future endeavours.

Board Composition and Recruitment

The Governance Committee has previously been empowered with overseeing the recruitment and evaluation of Board Directors, ensuring that the Board is composed of individuals with the

necessary expertise to guide Singapore Gymnastics effectively. With this in mind, a Board Skills Matrix was produced to identify key skills along with a Board Director Recruitment Pack to ensure that prospective new Directors are aware of the obligations, duties and requirements of being an active Board member. New Committee members, Sharon Tan (Fundraising) and Dr Petty Chan (Governance) were welcome editions in FY2024.

Term Limits of the Board

To enable succession planning and steady renewal in the spirit of sustainability of the charity, each Director has a term limit of eight (8) years, except for the Treasurer, who has a term limit of four years.

Conflict of Interest Management

The Board rigorously reviewed and updated the Conflict of Interest (COI) register. Directors were encouraged strongly throughout the year to disclose any potential conflicts, and protocols were reinforced to ensure that COIs are managed transparently and effectively.

Whistle Blowing Policy

Singapore Gymnastics (SG) implemented a whistleblowing policy in May 2019. This policy serves as a vital platform for individuals associated with SG to raise legitimate concerns regarding potential misconduct or irregularities in the organisation's operations. The whistleblowing policy has been established to offer a structured framework for addressing apprehensions related to potential wrongdoing or improper behaviour, especially in matters concerning financial affairs and other areas. Its primary objective is to foster a climate of honesty and openness within the Association, thereby promoting a culture of integrity and transparency. The Board are committed to keeping the Whistle Blowing Policy and Complaints procedure current and up to date. As such, a review will be undertaken of both these important areas by the Governance Committee in FY2025.

Planning and Implementation

Significant work has been undertaken to complete implementation of the final year of the current four year Strategic Plan and associated Operational Plan, FY22-25. Monitoring and evaluation of the penultimate Operational Plan FY23-24 and submission of the final Operational Plan FY24-25 was made to Sport Singapore in order to access Annual Funding.

Work started on drafting a new four-year Business Plan, FY26-29 through the Board agreeing the proposed steps and timeline for the production of a new plan at its meeting in July 2024.

In August, Board Directors, Committee Chairs and TAC Chairs attended a kick-off workshop, facilitated by Deloitte, to review the existing plans, Values, Purpose, Vision and Mission. This was followed by a check-in session in January 2025 to update on progress, particularly around the crafting of the five pillars. Presentations on each of the five pillars were made by Staff to the Board for their review and approval.

At the same time, Portas Consulting were commissioned to undertake a Landscape Study of Gymnastics in Singapore. This is the first time that such a study, describing what gymnastics in Singapore looks like today, has been produced. The study has provided valuable insights

and data to help identify significant gaps in the marketplace and guide the future direction. Work on crafting and shaping the Business Plan FY26-29 is continuing into FY2025. The findings from the Landscape Study will be shared with the gymnastics community throughout FY25.

Financial and Governance Oversight

In addition to the financial oversight provided by the Board for the organisation through the regular review of financial statements, FY2024 saw Singapore Gymnastics the subject of a Thematic Audit commissioned by Sport Singapore. Every four (4) years NSAs funded by Sport Singapore are required to undergo a Thematic Audit. In FY2024 Singapore Gymnastics underwent a thematic audit of its policies and processes.

Key findings from that audit included: In total there were seven (7) observations, of which three (3) were classified as “Medium” and four (4) were classified as “Low”. This was a significant improvement on the previous Compliance Audit in FY2018 where there was one (1) “High”, four (4) “Medium” and four (4) “Low” observations. With this, the Singapore Gymnastics’ 2024 thematic audit resulted in an overall rating of “Low” and significantly with no “High” observations.

In the previous three years of thematic audits by Sport Singapore a total of 35 NSAs were audited with 367 observations. That equated to approximately 10 observations per NSA. All NSAs receive observations for the Auditors. Noticeably, Singapore Gymnastics is trending below the average number of observations for observations.

• P001 Antidoping Policy updated, April 2024

Community Engagement

Clubs are the bedrock of gymnastics in Singapore and are the main vehicle through which gymnastics development takes place. In FY2024, through the months of September to November, a total of 24 out of 34 (71%) clubs were visited. Every club that requested a visit received one. A report on the issues raised by clubs was presented and discussed at the November 2024 Board meeting. An action plan to address the issues was produced and is being implemented. The top three issues were:

• Events experience.

• Education and development.

• Communications with the Office, needs to be clearer and more immediate.

Commitment to ESG Environmental

The Board again emphasised the importance of sustainability across all Singapore Gymnastics events, recognising the ecological impact these events may have. This commitment covers both International and domestic events with sustainability being a core consideration in the planning and implementation of each event.

In FY23 the Board considered and supported various sustainability initiatives across all events. Work in this area has continued in the following ways:

1. Green Initiatives

Provision of water dispensers: At event venues to reduce single-use plastic bottle consumption.

Adoption of non-event specific lanyards and volunteer t-shirts: To minimise textile and branding waste.

Use of environmentally friendly floral arrangements: Sourced from local community groups.

Transition to digital ticketing: To reduce paper usage across all SG events.

Placement of clearly marked recycling bins: To facilitate proper waste segregation at event venues.

Dissemination of event-related materials through digital platforms: To reduce reliance on printed brochures, flyers, and signage.

2. Alignment with Sport Singapore Sport Green Plan

Building on SportSG’s 2022 Sport Green Plan which aimed to transform the sporting industry through sustainable infrastructure, events, waste reduction, and community engagement Singapore Gymnastics is committed to embedding sustainability at the core of its operations.

As SportSG refined its Green Plan in FY2023 to focus on three core areas for greater impact, Singapore Gymnastics is similarly adopting strategies that:

• Influence sustainable behaviour through gymnastics, using our events and community platforms to promote environmentally responsible practices; and

• Track and create awareness of our sustainability efforts, through clear reporting, visible initiatives, and continuous stakeholder engagement.

These efforts reflect our broader ambition to contribute meaningfully to a more sustainable sport ecosystem in Singapore.

Scope 1: Singapore Gymnastics does not currently own or operate any direct fuel combustion systems or vehicles. As such, Scope 1 emissions are considered negligible or zero for the reporting period.

Scope 2: With regards to electricity consumption, Singapore Gymnastics, along with several other NSAs and Sport Singapore shared office space and utilise shared services. As Singapore Gymnastics has only 20 employees and makes up only 2.67% of the total workforce in the shared office space, the amount of electricity usage and is negligible.

Scope 3: Water consumption attributable to Singapore Gymnastics is considered negligible, as the majority of water usage within the shared facility is driven by the swimming pools and aquatic operations managed by Sport Singapore, according to the Shared Resource Report.

At present, Singapore Gymnastics does not track post-event waste disposal from gymnastics competitions. We recognise the importance of responsible waste management and plan to begin tracking waste generation and disposal from major events starting in FY2025, in alignment with our broader sustainability reporting efforts.

Social

In terms of gender representation across the governance structure of Singapore Gymnastics, the organisation is very representative of Singapore in general and the wider gymnastics community, which is predominantly female in total numbers of participants:

With regards to racial representation, the picture is less diverse:

It is notable that there are a significant number of expats that partake in gymnastics in Singapore. This is representative of the relatively high proportion of “Other”, within the governance structure, but most noticeably amongst staff, particularly including National Coaches. As this is the first time that Singapore Gymnastics has reported these figures for its governance and staff structures, these metrics will be tracked over time.

As in previous years, Singapore Gymnastics remains strongly committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people who are involved in our sport. Our updated policies and procedures seek to address risks to child safety and to establish a culture of child safety with appropriate practices that have led SafeSport Singapore to describe Singapore Gymnastics as a leader and strong example for other sports associations. Continuing from FY23 through FY24, Singapore Gymnastics covered the costs of Safeguarding Officer training workshops for all clubs as part of their commitment to having a Safeguarding Officer on staff, ensuring adherence to critical child safety standards.

Singapore Gymnastics in FY24 continued to run its National Training Centre (NTC) Bursary Fund (BF) to assist talented athletes who required financial assistance with their training fees. The aim of the NTC Bursary continues to ensure that Singapore Gymnastics provides equal development opportunity for all talented gymnasts. This is applicable annually to gymnasts training in the NTCs who require financial assistance in paying the training fees.

Governance

Charities Governance and the New Evaluation Checklist

Throughout FY24 work has continued to demonstrate how Singapore Gymnastics meets the new Code of Governance for Charities and Institutions of Public Character (IPCs). The latest revision of the Code of Governance was issued in April 2023 and has been effective from 1/1/2024.

The governing board of a charity is responsible for implementing good governance practices for the effective performance and operation of that charity. The Charity Council hopes that this Code will help charities prepare themselves to cater to an increasingly discerning public and allow the public to understand the hallmarks of good governance. The revised Code is meant for all registered charities and Institutions of a Public Character (IPCs) in Singapore. All charities and IPCs to which the Code applies are required to submit a Governance Evaluation Checklist (GEC).

The Code operates on the principle of ‘comply or explain’. Compliance is not mandatory. However, charities are encouraged to review or consider amending their governing instrument, by-laws and policies as necessary to adopt this Code for the best interest of their charities.

The Code is organised into six principles and the guidelines are tiered according to the charity or IPC status and size:

• Principle 1: The charity serves its mission and achieves its objectives.

• Principle 2: The charity has an effective Board and Management.

• Principle 3: The charity acts responsibly, fairly and with integrity.

• Principle 4: The charity is well-managed and plans for the future.

• Principle 5: The charity is accountable and transparent.

• Principle 6: The charity communicates actively to instil public confidence.

Singapore Gymnastics will be submitting its evaluation of how it meets the new Code of Governance in FY2025 following the 2025 AGM.

New Charities Code of Governance

Areas for improvement:

1.3 Monitoring and Evaluating Outcomes at the Board Level

Status: Needs regular monitoring. Tracking and monitoring KPIs and milestone targets of the new Business Plan FY26-29 will require attention. On going.

2.5 Board Renewal

Status: Constitution: 10.11 & 10.12. The current election cycle occurs every 4 years, which is aligned with the Olympic Games cycle to ensure that planning and management reflects this cycle. Whilst the Code of Governance (COG) recommends the reappointment of Board Directors every three years, SG has specifically chosen every four years to better support planning and preparations for major games such as the Olympics (every 4 years) and Asian Games (every 4 years). Technically, it does not meet the requirement of renomination and reappointment at least once every 3 years, there is good practical reason to differ. Sport Singapore acknowledges the importance of NSAs adopting four-year terms.

3.5 Consider ESG Factors

Status: A review is being conducted by a consultant and will be considered by the Governance Committee and then Board. Will be complete by end August 2025.

4.3 Risk Identification

Status: There has been a need to update the Risk Framework and undertake a refresh. This has is being done through both the Governance Committee (GC) and Audit and Risk Committee (ARC) before being approved by the Board. Will be complete by end August 2025.

4.4 Missing IT Cybersecurity Policy

Status: An internal policy is needed, along with staff training on safe computer usage. This is involving significant work.

Membership Report

Membership for FY24 has continued to show growth. There has been a 16.13% increase in club membership. Of the 34 Full and Club Members, 88% have 25 or more Athlete Members registered with Singapore Gymnastics. This gives them voting rights at the 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM).

Membership Statistics

The key trends in membership numbers since 2018 continues to be upwards. All membership categories, except Full Members, which have remained static at 2 since FY22, are up in FY24 compared to FY23. For example, as mentioned previously clubs have seen a 16.13% increase. Significantly, Athlete Members have risen by 26.73%, Technical Members by 8.63% and Associate Members have shown a 61.80% increase since FY23. This continues the steady growth of Singapore Gymnastics membership since 2018. However, we know from recent research that the potential for higher membership figures is significant. We must look in future as to how we can unlock this potential.

Singapore Gymnastics Membership (@31/12/2024 – end of membership year)

(inc.

Kindergym)

Within the pleasing overall increase in Athlete Members of 26.73% from FY23 to FY24, there has be an increase of 21.55% in Competitive Members, which continues the upward trend post COVID from FY22 onwards. Kindergym membership, which was first established in 2022 has shown a rise of 415% and which we expect to continue to increase exponentially over the next five years. Disappointingly, we saw a fall in Recreational and Kinder members of 16.62% and 67.67%. Although the relative numbers are small; we also expect both of these to rise significantly over the next five years.

Participation Report

1. ActiveSG Gymnastics Academy (AGA) – Development and Expansion

In FY24, Singapore Gymnastics (SG) significantly expanded grassroots participation through the ActiveSG Gymnastics Academy (AGA), which offers the KinderGym programme for children aged 4–6. Delivered in partnership with SportSG at Bishan and Sengkang, the programme focused on developing fundamental movement in early childhood.

Participation

Key Developments

• Sunday classes at Bishan introduced (fully subscribed)

• Three new coaches recruited from KinderGym (currently at intermediate level) courses held in April and August 2024

• Growth limited by coaching workforce; only 10–15 coaches certified annually

2. Introduction to Gymnastics – New Direction and Business Plan (FY26–29)

With the KinderGym licensing contract expiring in January 2026, SG will develop a localised Introduction to Gymnastics (ITG) curriculum to serve as the foundation of its early year’s pathway.

Key Shifts (FY25–26):

• Replace the licensed KinderGym program with a Singapore-designed ITG curriculum

• Expand reach to older age groups (above 6 years) and focus on more floor-based movement: rolls, jumps, balances, flexibility, and strength, object manipulation to be scalable in many centres.

• Enable delivery across more ActiveSG centres without competing with existing affiliated clubs

Business Plan (FY26–29):

• Provide a positive, progressive introduction to gymnastics with clear pathways to clubs

• Launch an inclusive, scalable ITG program for all ages and abilities

• Expand the coaching base through a new Fundamental-level certification (introduction to gymnastics) open to professionals beyond gymnastics (e.g. athletics coaches, personal trainers, preschool educators)

• Reinforce SG’s long-term goal of embedding gymnastics as a foundation sport for all

3. School Engagement

In FY24, Singapore Gymnastics partnered with SportSG under the School Sports Programme (SSP) to deliver gymnastics in schools as a value-added and enrichment activity, with schools eligible for partial funding. Schools submitted requests to SportSG, which were then referred to Singapore Gymnastics. SG subsequently engaged affiliated clubs with coaches listed in the Dynamic Coach Catalogue a pool of coaches jointly assessed and endorsed by both Singapore Gymnastics and SportSG.

Pilot Schools:

• - Kong Hwa Primary (delivered by CT Gymnastics)

• - Westwood Primary (delivered by Art Fairy)

All deployed coaches are required to be MOE-registered, Safe Sport certified, SG-Coach VIA accredited and NROC certified. These pilots provided key insights to support future scaling of school-based gymnastics under the Introduction to Gymnastics framework.

4. Participation Events – Expanding Reach and Visibility

Seven new clubs — Art Fairy, CT, GIM Sports, Galaxy, Alpha, Stardust, and Fireflies participated in the Gym Challenge, marking a refreshing shift from the usual participating clubs.

GymFest – November 2024 (Annual showcase event promoting group performance, teamwork, and creativity)

• Total Teams: 11 (↑ from 9 in 2023)

• Club participation increased from one club in 2023 (BazGym) to three clubs in FY24 KGA, D’ymnastique, and Prime Gymnastics.

5. Introduction to Gymnastics (ITG) – FY26–29 Business Plan

FY24 marked significant progress in grassroots participation, with strong growth in AGA enrolment, successful school pilots, and record community engagement laying a strong foundation for future expansion.

The upcoming ITG initiative will replace KinderGym and hopefully integrate the Learn to Play (LTP) programme at Bishan (200+ children), establishing Bishan as the central hub for both programme delivery and coach development. ITG offers a unified, inclusive, and scalable national framework that streamlines the early years pathway, supports confident movers, and broadens the coaching pipeline by welcoming talent from athletics, early childhood, and fitness sectors.

Conclusion

With increased enrolment, wider MOE school reach, and strong community momentum, Singapore Gymnastics is well positioned to launch ITG in FY26 building a nation of confident, active movers

Education Report

1. Overview

In FY 2024–25, our education work continued to grow steadily, with consistent programme delivery, growing participation, and foundational developments that point toward future innovation.

2. Key Highlights

Consistent Programme Delivery

All 16 scheduled coaching education programmes spanning Fundamental, KinderGym, and Intermediate Gymnastics were successfully delivered without interruption throughout the entire financial year, reaching a total of 171 participants. Fundamental Coaching Courses were conducted quarterly, KinderGym courses twice annually, and six discipline-specific Intermediate Coaching Courses were held over the year.

Feedback from 141 responses indicated strong satisfaction and relevance of our education programmes. The average satisfaction rating was 4.4 out of 5, with 90% rating the programme as ‘Very Good’ or ‘Excellent’ and 92% finding it useful to their professional context. An adapted Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 84 highlights a high likelihood of participants recommending the programme.

Customised coaching courses and workshops launched

As part of an initiative with Physical Educators & Sport Teachers Academy, SG delivered a customised course in October 2024 for 16 pioneering PE educators, focusing on adaptive pedagogy, inclusive practices, and learner-centred coaching strategies to boost student engagement and foundational sports skills. This collaboration focused on sharing varied coaching approaches with educators to support their work in schools. By empowering teachers with practical tools and ideas, the initiative aims to foster greater interest and visibility for gymnastics in school settings with the longer-term hope of encouraging continued participation beyond the classroom. Participants valued the creative approaches to lesson planning, including gamification techniques and structured progression and regression of skills, which expanded their teaching repertoire and refined their coaching cues beyond previous training.

Coaches in the Fitter for Life coaching workshop

SG also piloted Fitter for Life workshop in February 2025, a new initiative responding to Singapore’s ageing population. This workshop equips coaches and club managers with practical strategies to deliver safe, engaging, and effective programmes that enhance seniors' strength, flexibility, coordination, and balance. Co-led by an experienced clinical physiotherapist and an accredited gymnastics coach, the session provided evidence-based approaches tailored to the needs of older adults, marking an important step toward expanding inclusive coaching practices in community sport.

A second cohort for both courses is planned for late 2025, with course content refined based on participant feedback to maximise impact.

Congress Participation Doubled

The SG 2024 Coaches Congress marked a significant milestone in our education and outreach efforts, with attendance more than doubling to 118 participants. Held over four mornings in September in Bishan Sports Hall, the congress was themed “LEVELING UP Coaching and Athlete Development Knowledge” across three key domains: Physical, Technical, and Mental. It featured 18 sessions delivered by 14 expert presenters, including interactive workshops, panel discussions, and practical clinics. Feedback from 207 responses was overwhelmingly positive 96% of attendees rated the overall experience as “Very Good” or “Excellent,” with

an average satisfaction score of 4.5 out of 5, reflecting strong engagement and relevance of the content.

This strong response reflects growing interest in professional development and collaboration in sport and movement education. Planning for the 2025 edition is already underway, with a focus on deepening thematic tracks and expanding opportunities for peer learning, collaboration and interactivity.

Growing Mentor Network

Since its inception in 2022, our mentoring network has steadily expanded to support club coaches in their development journeys. Two mentoring workshops are held consistently each year, providing a platform for mentors to share best practices, clarify expectations, and strengthen their role in guiding fellow coaches.

To date, 70 mentors from 35 affiliated clubs have attended onboarding workshops and are actively supporting coaches within their communities. These mentors play a key role in encouraging ongoing learning by facilitating peer interaction and reinforcing practical, on-thejob development. Looking ahead, we aim to further strengthen the network by offering additional resources and regular touchpoints to better support mentors in their roles.

3. Looking Ahead

In FY24/25, SG’s coaching workforce development efforts remained on steady footing, reflecting a strong foundation, with consistently positive feedback and growing interest in professional development across the sector. At the same time, SG recognises the opportunity to deepen impact by scaling participation, encouraging greater real-world application of learning, and building stronger integration across initiatives.

Building on this year's momentum, SG aims to expand access through blended learning, strengthen mentoring systems, and develop clearer progression pathways for coaches. These enhancements will support the long-term goal of cultivating a sustainable, skilled, and inclusive coaching workforce across all levels of participation.

Events Report

Singapore Gymnastics has continued to lead the development and promotion of gymnastics in the region, delivering another impactful year marked by strategic growth, innovation, and a strong calendar of competitions. In 2024, the organisation reaffirmed its commitment to excellence by executing a series of well-curated events that not only showcased the rising talent within our community but also reinforced Singapore’s reputation as a regional hub for gymnastics.

The year began with the 19th edition of the Singapore Open in early 2024, setting the tone for a dynamic and high-energy competition season. This was followed by the SG Gym Carnival in November 2024 a vibrant and inclusive event that brought together gymnasts of the lower levels. Notably, the new National Programme for Rhythmic Gymnastics, introduced in 2024 to better support long-term athlete development, was implemented for the first time during this event.

Capping off the year was the Singapore Gymnastics Classic in November 2024, which continued to attract top-level performances and strong participation. In early 2025, the momentum carried into the 3rd edition of the Lunar Cup in February, generating continued excitement and engagement from the community. The highlight of the first quarter was the National Championships held in March 2025, which once again brought together the nation’s top gymnasts in a showcase of skill, resilience, and competitive spirit.

These thoughtfully planned events catered to a wide range of abilities, offering meaningful competition experiences and deepening engagement within the gymnastics community.

While this report covers activities up to March 2025, it is worth briefly noting a significant milestone that followed shortly after the hosting of the Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships 2025, the second time Singapore Gymnastics has staged a major continental event. The successful lead-up to this prestigious championship was made possible through the strong foundation laid in 2023 & 2024.

Singapore Gymnastics remains committed to driving the sport forward—expanding pathways for athletes, enhancing competition experiences, and elevating the presence of gymnastics in Singapore and beyond.

Singapore Open 2024

The Singapore Open 2024 marked the 19th edition of this prestigious event and continued to build on its legacy as one of the region’s premier international gymnastics competitions. Held from 23 May to 2 June 2024, the event once again showcased Singapore Gymnastics’ commitment to delivering high-quality competitive opportunities across multiple disciplines Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG), Men’s Artistic Gymnastics (MAG), Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG), and Trampoline Gymnastics (TRA).

This year’s edition welcomed a total of 572 athletes, including 172 international participants from 25 overseas clubs and federations, alongside strong representation from 28 local clubs. The Singapore Open 2024 reinforced its status as a globally recognised event, attracting

gymnasts from across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond, including China, Korea, Japan, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, and Hong Kong.

The event served as a vibrant platform for both local and international gymnasts to compete at a high level, exchange experiences, and raise the standard of performance. Audiences were treated to a week of riveting performances, technical excellence, and spirited sportsmanship, all set against the backdrop of Singapore’s growing reputation as a hub for gymnastics.

The success of the Singapore Open 2024 was made possible by the tireless efforts of athletes, coaches, volunteers, and organisers, reflecting the shared dedication to advancing the sport in Singapore and throughout the region.

Discipline Participation Breakdown:

• Men’s Artistic Gymnastics (MAG): 50 participants

• Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG): 119 participants

• Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG): 317 participants

• Trampoline Gymnastics (TRA): 85 participants

The continued international interest and growth in participation underscores the event’s rising stature and impact. Singapore Gymnastics looks forward to celebrating the 20th edition of the Singapore Open in 2025 with even greater ambition and global engagement.

Gymnastic Carnival 2024

The Gymnastics Carnival 2024, held from 2nd to 3rd November, continued to strengthen its position as a key community event within the domestic calendar. Building on the success of previous editions, this year’s Carnival brought together gymnasts of all ages and abilities in a vibrant celebration of movement, creativity, and sportsmanship.

The event maintained its inclusive and festive spirit, featuring multiple components across the two-day programme, including the Gym Challenge, Artistic Gymnastics (MAG & WAG) Levels 1 to 3, GymFest, and Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG). Notably, the 2024 edition also featured special performances by the Jump Rope Federation and Space Cuboid, adding an exciting new dimension to the celebration.

The Gym Challenge, held on Saturday morning, welcomed over 130 recreational athletes, offering a fun and engaging experience through a dynamic 8-station circuit focused on fitness and enjoyment. In the afternoon, the MAG and WAG competitions featured over 166 athletes from Levels 1 to 3, showcasing emerging talent through energetic and well-executed routines.

The evening concluded with GymFest, a creative and community-oriented segment highlighting team performances that blended artistry and teamwork. This year saw participation from both affiliated gymnastics clubs and external performance groups, further reflecting the Carnival’s growing inclusivity.

On Sunday, the spotlight shifted to Rhythmic Gymnastics, with 188 athletes from Levels 1 to 3 and Age Group categories (6 to 8 years old) taking centre stage. Their graceful

performances and technical execution captivated the audience and demonstrated the strength of the RG developmental pathway.

The Gymnastics Carnival 2024 saw a total of 484 participants, supported by a strong community of coaches, volunteers, and spectators. It remains a cornerstone event for Singapore Gymnastics, promoting grassroots engagement, encouraging cross-discipline appreciation, and celebrating the joy of gymnastics in all its forms.

Singapore Gymnastics Classic 2024

The Singapore Gymnastics Classic 2024 was once again delivered in a two-part format National and International editions each held on separate dates to provide clear developmental pathways for gymnasts of different skill levels. Introduced in 2023, this structure aims to ensure that both emerging and elite athletes receive tailored opportunities to compete, gain experience, and progress confidently through the sport.

National Edition – Supporting Foundational Growth

The National edition focused on lower competition levels, providing a crucial platform for young and developing athletes to gain exposure in a supportive environment.

Disciplines and levels included:

- Men’s Artistic Gymnastics (MAG): Level 2–6 & Stage 1–3

- Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG): Level 4–6

- Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG): Level 4–8, Age Groups 9–11 Years, and Pre-Junior (12–13 Years)

In 2024, the national event saw participation from 10 clubs, contributing 145 athletes to the Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG) competition, and 6 clubs fielding 94 athletes across the Men’s and Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (MAG and WAG) events. This inclusive approach allowed younger and less experienced gymnasts to test their skills and build confidence in a national setting.

Compared to 2023, this marks a 14% increase in RG athlete participation (from 127 to 145 athletes), and a 261% increase in WAG/MAG athlete numbers (from 26 to 94 athletes). The strong year-on-year growth reflects the rising interest in gymnastics and SG’s continued efforts to broaden access to competition opportunities at the grassroots and developmental levels.

International Edition – Showcasing Elite Performance

Catering to advanced athletes, the International edition featured higher-level competitions designed to meet qualification standards and offer exposure to high-performance environments.

Disciplines and levels included:

- MAG: FIG Junior & Senior

- WAG: Level 7–10, FIG Junior & Senior, Sub-Junior & Pre-Junior

- RG: FIG Junior & Senior

This segment attracted elite gymnasts from 4 clubs and the National Training Centre, contributing a total of 31 athletes in Rhythmic Gymnastics, and 2 clubs alongside the National Training Centre, contributing 37 athletes in MAG and WAG. The event delivered an

impressive display of technical excellence and competitive intensity, underscoring its value as a platform for international readiness.

National Championships 2025

Singapore Gymnastics (SG) proudly hosted the 16th edition of the National Championships from 1 Mar to 23 March 2025 at Bishan Sports Hall, uniting the nation’s top gymnasts in a month-long celebration of athletic excellence, dedication, and passion. This flagship event marked a significant milestone in SG’s ongoing efforts to elevate gymnastics, inspire future generations, and build a high-performance sporting culture in Singapore.

This year’s championships were thoughtfully structured to include both junior and senior divisions across all three competitive disciplines: Artistic Gymnastics (MAG/WAG), Rhythmic Gymnastics, and Trampoline Gymnastics.

Competition Dates by Discipline:

- Junior Rhythmic Gymnastics: 1–2 March

- Junior Artistic Gymnastics (MAG/WAG): 8–9 March

- Senior Rhythmic Gymnastics: 13–18 March

- Senior Trampoline Gymnastics: 14–16 March

- Senior Artistic Gymnastics (MAG/WAG): 20–23 March

Spanning 14 competition days across four weekends, the 2025 edition welcomed participation from 53 affiliated clubs and schools and featured a total of 1,622 athletes. Breakdown by discipline included:

- 757 Artistic gymnasts (474 Junior, 283 Senior)

- 756 Rhythmic gymnasts (386 Junior, 370 Senior)

- 109 Trampoline athletes

Notably, the Rhythmic Gymnastics segment of the 2025 National Championships implements SG’s new national program, which was officially launched during the SG Carnival 2024. This marked an exciting evolution for the discipline, aligning with modern athlete development frameworks and providing gymnasts with refreshed routines and competitive standards.

The National Championships continue to serve as a cornerstone of SG’s athlete development pathway, enabling gymnasts to gain national-level experience and qualify for National Squad selection. Beyond competition, the event remains a powerful platform for community building, reinforcing Singapore Gymnastics’ commitment to nurturing talent at every level of the sport.

National Championships 2022 to 2025

The 2025 National Championships continued its remarkable growth, once again breaking participation records with a 2.40% increase from 2024, a 37% rise compared to 2022, and a striking 96.13% increase in participation compared to 2019, which saw only 827 athletes. This year’s event featured:

- 345 gymnastic sessions across Artistic, Rhythmic, and Trampoline disciplines

- Over 2,000 rhythmic routines performed across all levels

The increasing scale of the National Championships reflects the strengthening of Singapore’s gymnastics ecosystem, the effectiveness of development pathways, and the growing interest in the sport across all age groups.

Singapore Gymnastics remains steadfast in its commitment to building an inclusive and dynamic gymnastics community, with a strong focus on the continued growth and success of the sport in Singapore. The organisation is dedicated to delivering a fulfilling and enriching experience for all athletes, coaches, and supporters.

Looking ahead, SG recognises the upward trend in participation across all disciplines. While this growth presents new challenges, SG is actively exploring ways to adapt its infrastructure and revamp competition formats to better accommodate the increasing number of athletes. SG’s focus remains on nurturing every gymnast’s potential and strengthening the ecosystem that supports their development. The organisation is resolute in its vision of a vibrant, sustainable gymnastics landscape one where every athlete has the opportunity to thrive.

Performance Development Report

National Programmes

The TACs for RG and MAG, with support from the SG Office, culminated their sterling work through FY24 in reviewing and developing both the RG and MAG National programmes for launch in 2025. Their purpose was to produce a comprehensive programme that aligns with FIG standards, promoted participation across Singapore, and enhance performance at both the national and international levels.

The respective RG and MAG programmes provide resources to guide coaches through progressive developmental steps and support judge and coach education. The new system emphasises key objectives like increased participation, talent development, and international performance readiness. The National Programmes are aiming to achieve a 50% increase in participation at the National Championships by 2028 and foster a consistent developmental pathway for gymnasts. Both programmes were launched in time for coaches and gymnasts to prepare their gymnasts for the SG Nationals 2025, where they were used for the first time to determine the competition format. Although the launch of the WAG National Programme was delayed by nine months, we know that it is eagerly awaited and will be available from August 2025 to be used for the up-coming domestic season.

Judge Education and Development

In FY23, the RG TAC led efforts to address judging inconsistencies, focusing on intentional biases and unintentional errors within Rhythmic Gymnastics. This important work has continued through FY24 where Board Director, Fionna Thong, has been asked to undertake a review of judging and judge education and development across all disciplines, with the underlying intention that it scales up the positive work undertaken by the RG TAC across all disciplines.

In the area of judge education, the following are the numbers of judges who attended local re-accreditation courses in FY24:

The table below documents the judge workshops and courses that took place during FY24:

Feb-2025 Feb-2025 Feb-2025 Mar-2025

Note 1: In MAG, all Level 3 judges have upgraded via the FIG Judges Course. As such, there are currently no Level 2 or Level 3 judges at the national level.

Note 2: WAG accreditations originally expiring on 31 Dec 2024 were extended to 31 Dec 2025 due to the delay in the National Programme.)

After each Olympic cycle a new Code of Points (CoP) is produced by the International Federation (FIG) in each discipline. This is the stimulus for a significant increase in the number of judge reaccreditations required. The following table documents the number of Singapore Judges who attended the FIG Judges Courses (CoP 2025-2028) in FY24:

Judge Level MAG (10) WAG (11) RG (10) TRA (1)

Brevet 2 1 3 2

Brevet 3 3 4 8 1

Brevet 4 6 4

Note: Trampoline has 3 FIG Judges. Two other judges attended the FIG Course held in April 2025.

Singapore Gymnastics Development Programme (SGDP)

The purpose of the SGDP programme is focused on helping to nurture the next generation of artistic and rhythmic gymnasts and providing a pathway for athletes aspiring to join Junior and Senior National Squads.

Whist in FY23 several adjustments were made to the SGDP, due to the hosting of the 2023 Asian Artistic Gymnastics Championships, the programme resumed to a level of familiarity in FY24. There were two SGDP camps held in FY24 for each of RG, MAG and WAG. They were held in the months of June 2024 and November 2024.

Across the two camps, For RG there were a total of 30 gymnasts from clubs and five from the NTC. They were ably supported by 15 coaches from clubs with three from the NTC. For MAG, there were 6 gymnasts from clubs and 3 from the NTC. Thet were supported by two coaches from clubs and the two coaches from the NTC. With regards to WAG, there were five gymnasts from clubs and 11 from the NTC. Who were supported by 4 coaches from the clubs and 6 from the NTC.

The coaches at the SGDP camps were able to access up to three coaches workshops as part of the camps. Those coaches who did not contribute to the camps paid for the workshops. We were lucky and privileged to be able to attract top technical experts and coaches who helped to deliver the workshops and the camps. These included:

• Coach Silviya Miteva-Yaneva; A Bulgarian, London 2012 Olympian in Rhythmic Gymnastics who has won numerous medals at World and European Championships and is now coaching, mentoring and judging and sharing her expertise.

• Coach Andrew Butcher from Leeds Gymnastics Club in Great Britain for MAG. With over 20 years’ experience and regularly placing gymnasts on GB squads.

• Coach David Kenwright from Great Britain for WAG. With over 40 years’ experience of shaping the development of WAG in Great Britain, Coach David was recently the Head National Coach and Strategic Lead for British Gymnastics, guiding Team GB to a bronze medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, silver at the 2022 World Championships and gold at the 2023 European Championships

As well as contributing actively to the SGDP camps in November, all three of the technical experts combined to contribute to the High-Performance Symposium, which culminated in a panel discussion on Successful Gymnast Pathways: Factors Leading to Success. We know this was enjoyed by all who attended.

In light of recent changes to the Performance Development focus, based on representation and achievements at Major Games and Championships, and the structure within Singapore Gymnastics, there will be further adjustments to the SGDP programme to strengthen the links between National Squads and Clubs in particular over the next few years.

NTCs 2024

The National Training Centres (NTCs) have been a core strategy for the development of highperformance gymnastics in Singapore since 2004. The Singapore Gymnastics of today is committed to this strategy. However, with key changes in the staff of Singapore Gymnastics and a significant investment in technical expertise through the Performance Development Team there will be a review of the NTC and National Squads programmes in 2025.

Marketing & Promotions Report

In 2024, Singapore Gymnastics (SG) sharpened its focus on transparent, timely, and effective communications as a core pillar of its Marketing and Communications strategy. Recognising the importance of clear and consistent messaging, SG committed to strengthening its engagement with stakeholders including athletes, clubs, partners, and the wider community through open and responsive communication practices.

Building upon the foundations laid in previous years, SG’s Marketing and Communications Plan was further refined to prioritise accessibility and clarity. Special emphasis was placed on delivering accurate and timely updates across all platforms, ensuring that information on events, programmes, and initiatives reached key audiences without delay. This approach has helped reinforce trust, improve participation, and foster stronger stakeholder relationships. Content development across SG’s website, e-newsletters, and social media channels continued to be guided by a commitment to relevance, transparency, and community value. In doing so, SG ensured that its messaging remained aligned with its broader organisational goals empowering athletes and clubs, amplifying the sport’s visibility, and creating meaningful connections within the gymnastics ecosystem.

SG also placed greater focus on maintaining consistency in content delivery schedules and real-time event coverage, further supporting community engagement and responsiveness. Overall, 2024 marked a year where communication was not just a function, but a strategy anchored in transparency, timeliness, and connection. SG remains committed to evolving its communication approach to meet the changing needs of its stakeholders and to drive the continued growth and visibility of gymnastics in Singapore.

Social Media Performance

In 2024, Singapore Gymnastics (SG) continued to build on its refined social media strategy, maintaining a strong focus on content quality and audience engagement. While SG did not host any major international competitions this year traditionally a key driver of social media traffic the organisation remained committed to delivering consistent, engaging content across its platforms.

The year’s content strategy remained aligned with insights gained from previous performance analyses, with visual storytelling through images and videos continuing to play a central role. Posts featured a mix of athlete highlights, behind-the-scenes training moments, domestic competition coverage, and community engagement activities. This diversified approach ensured that SG's social channels stayed relevant and vibrant throughout the year.

Despite the absence of international events, SG recorded a 0.1% increase in reach, a 3% rise in content interactions, and a significant 17.6% increase in visits to the SG Facebook page While these figures may appear modest in comparison to the substantial gains achieved in 2023, it is important to highlight that this year’s growth was achieved through sustained

engagement and quality content alone without the added visibility typically generated by large-scale events.

These results underscore the strength and consistency of SG’s content strategy and the continued interest from the gymnastics community. SG remains committed to further enhancing its digital presence and leveraging social media to inspire, inform, and connect with audiences both locally and globally.

In 2024, Singapore Gymnastics’ Instagram platform continued its upward trajectory, delivering strong results that reaffirm the effectiveness of SG’s evolving content strategy. In comparison to Facebook, Instagram recorded even more significant growth highlighting the platform’s increasing relevance and resonance with SG’s target audience.

The year saw a 160.4% increase in reach, a 100% increase in content interactions, and a 29.8% increase in visits to the SG Instagram page. These impressive metrics demonstrate the strength of SG’s visual storytelling and the growing impact of its content in engaging the gymnastics community.

The consistent performance across both major platforms despite the absence of a major international event in 2024 serves as a strong indicator that SG’s social media strategy is on the right track. By delivering timely, relevant, and engaging content, SG continues to build a strong digital presence and connect meaningfully with its stakeholders

Communications Report

The Communication Strategy for FY2024 continued to serve as a cornerstone in strengthening information flow between Singapore Gymnastics (SG) and its diverse stakeholders, including affiliated clubs, coaches, judges, athletes, parents, officials, and the wider public. Building on the solid foundation established in previous years, SG remained committed to delivering timely, transparent, and relevant information through a range of targeted communication channels.

As we progressed through 2024, the existing Communication Strategy proved to be both effective and well-aligned with the needs of our community. In light of its continued success, SG maintained the core structure and principles of the plan while placing increased emphasis on two-way communication. This included enhancing feedback mechanisms, encouraging dialogue, and fostering a more participatory approach to stakeholder engagement.

Through consistent messaging and more interactive touchpoints, SG deepened its relationships with both internal and external stakeholders, including media partners, sponsors, suppliers, and government agencies. The shift from primarily one-way dissemination to more interactive and responsive communication reflects SG’s commitment to cultivating a more engaged, informed, and collaborative community.

The Strategy includes details on current practice and future developments in five key areas:

• Communication Objectives

• Communication Principles

• Stakeholders

• Communication Channels

Other Relevant Disclosures

Conflicts of Interest

Members of the Board and the Committees of the Board are expected and encouraged to avoid both actual and perceived conflicts of interest. If these members have personal interests in business transactions or contracts that Singapore Gymnastics may engage in or hold vested interests in other organisations that Singapore Gymnastics interacts with or is considering joint ventures with, they must promptly disclose these interests to the Board. Additionally, they should refrain from participating in any discussions or decision-making processes related to those matters. When such conflicts arise, the Board will evaluate whether they compromise the ongoing independence of the Director or Committee member and decide if it is appropriate for the member to remain on the Board or Committee.

It is the organisation’s policy that the Board of Directors, staff, and all individuals representing or acting on behalf of Singapore Gymnastics must remain free from conflicts of interest that could adversely affect their judgment or objectivity in conducting the organisation’s activities and responsibilities. To ensure effectiveness, declarations of interests are submitted annually in written form. Any updates to these declarations are made throughout the year as necessary and presented to the Audit & Risk Sub-Committee (ARC) for review.

Prior to each Board meeting, Directors conduct a thorough review of the conflict-of-interest register to ensure its accuracy and relevance. Each Board meeting agenda is carefully aligned with the conflict of interest (COI) register. If any actual or potential conflicts of interest are identified, they are proactively addressed and managed before the related agenda items are discussed.

Reserves Position

As per the Reserves Policy, the Board aims to provide stability to fund the structural costs in case of a decline in Sport SG’s grants. Our reserves position is as follows, with none of the funds (restricted or unrestricted) in deficit at the end of the financial year.

Ratio of Reserves to Annual Operation

Operating Expenditure for the year $4,320,741 $5,210,487

1 Restricted Funds relate to the Restricted Reserves Structure Fund (see SG Reserves Policy) and OTSF matched funding reserved specifically for high performance initiatives.

Singapore Gymnastics reserves policy aims to hold adequate funds to meet its operational needs and fulfil its role. The reserves are set aside to provide financial stability and the future

plans of Singapore Gymnastics, in line with its Vision and Mission. The Board aims to build up the reserves to approximately equivalent of one year of salaries.

About SGD100K will be held in an operating bank account to fund working capital requirements. Since setting up the reserves fund in 2010, the reserves have been held in separate Fixed Deposit accounts. The current amount is adequate to cover salaries for reemployment transition in the event the NSA ceases to operate. The Board review the level of reserves regularly for the organisation’s continuing obligations.

Future Fundraising Plans

Singapore Gymnastics will focus on increasing self-generated income from the development and expansion of its membership, participation, education and events offerings. This is the primary focus of the new four-year SG Business Plan for FY26-29. The Association will continue to seek donations through fundraising efforts, sponsorship through its events strategy and grant funding support from Sport Singapore.

Future Expenditure Plans

Singapore Gymnastics will continue to review and refine its business plans to consistently strengthen the gymnastics ecosystem in alignment with the organisation’s goals and longterm vision. There will be significant investment in the domestic infrastructure as we start implementing a new Business Plan in FY26.

As the governing body for gymnastics in Singapore, much of Singapore Gymnastics' expenditure is dedicated to multi-year programmes and annual events aligned with its business plans. These programmes are designed to promote, support and expand participation, while investing in the performance development pathway to achieve sustained success in Major Games (SEA, Commonwealth, Asian and Olympic) and Championships (Junior and Senior Asian and World). Additionally, the expenditure supports the infrastructure of the National Sports Association (NSA), ensuring it can serve effectively the gymnastics ecosystem and meet evolving and changing needs.

Future Business Plans

In FY24, Singapore Gymnastics initiated the development of a new, four-year Business Plan for April 2026 to March 2030. This builds on the strong foundations established through the two previous Strategic and Operational Plans from FY18 onwards.

Following wide ranging consultation, the plans are underpinned by extensive groundbreaking research into the gymnastics landscape in Singapore and are intended to drive our future desired change. The intentions of the plans are:

• To grow the gymnastics industry, so that the whole of gymnastics in Singapore can benefit.

• To increase self-generated income, at least equal to the public funding that is received, which is invested predominantly (but not exclusively) into high performance.

• To grow the National Gymnastics Development Infrastructure (NGDI) by re-investing the self-generated income so that it is financially self-sustaining in the longer term.

There are three priorities that Singapore Gymnastics will be pursuing over the period of the plan:

1. Maximising Performance Development leading to high performance (which is defined as Asian podium level and above).

2. Development and growth of the National Gymnastics Development Infrastructure (NGDI)

3. Developing a strong participation strand through Introduction to Gymnastics (fostering a positive experience on entry into the sport) and strengthening the competitive strand.
