Introduction

The Sports Safety Working Committee was formed in the first quarter of 2008 and comprises Sport Singapore and 14 organisations that manage mass sports events and operate sports venues as well as medical institutions. The Committee aims to promote sports safety in Singapore holistically through a multi-year, multi-prong Sports Safety Plan.

In detail, the Sports Safety Working Committee:

Studies implementation issues
Puts into operation the recommendations of the Sports Safety Committee
Promotes sports safety across different sports
Assists National Sports Associations in developing and implementing sports safety practices and various information, materials, guides and templates for the public
