Sporting Activities
Get in, or stay in shape as well as making new friends.
Welcome to the British Association Sporting Activities pages. We aim to give you the opportunity to play your favourite sport and offer you something new – our groups are sporting and fun and sometimes a little competitive but not scary! We mix sports with social so most activities invariably involve a coffee or a cool drink afterwards. It's a great way to make new friends. So welcome to the BA sports and we hope you can find something that will inspire you to pull on those trainers and come and join us!
Badminton
We meet every Tuesday morning from 10am – 12noon and other days and evenings by arrangement. All ages, all abilities. We're a very sociable group and we often meet for coffee or lunches after a much needed shower. E–mail Sue on babadminton@gmail.com
Dragon Boating
What better opportunity whilst in Singapore than to try this exhilarating sport with all the family? We run regular 'orientation' sessions with full instructions and safety briefings. The sessions are run by a fully qualified Dragon Boat instructor who will teach basic handling of the equipment, techniques and safety. We then set off on the river and start paddling! The aim is to have fun, get wet and maybe get hooked! E-mail Miranda on miranda.ford@btinternet.com
Scuba Diving
Freeflowdivers are a fun and very friendly bunch who meet once a month. At our meetings we have presentations from dive professionals or Club members, or we just get together to meet other enthusiasts. Sorkellers and divers of all levels are very welcome to attend a meeting before joining. We aim to organize local dives and trips further afield as well as 'free flow' social evenings. Details on Current Activities Programme or via Gwen on gwen@freeflowdivers.com or www.freeflowdivers.com. Membership fees are $120 per household per year (pro-rata for part year.)
Tennis
Anyone for tennis? Join us every Friday morning from 10am – 1.00pm for a few games, lots of chat and a coffee. Our usual venue is unavailable at present but contact Gaby on batennisgroup@gmail.com and she can give you directions and details.
Walkie Talkies: Botanic Gardens Group
We are a group of ladies of all ages, shapes and fitness levels who meet three times a week in the Botanic Gardens to walk and talk for about an hour and end at the visitor centre for a much needed drink. Don't be afraid to join us even if you have just arrived in hot sticky Singapore. We meet every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8.00am at the Visitors Centre at the Nassim Road entrance to the Botanical Gardens... you can't miss us. Contact Carole on carolehind@hotmail.com
Walkie Talkies: East Coast Group
We walk and talk at various speeds so don't be afraid to join us. It's a great way to get fitter, healthier and keep up with the latest news! If it sounds like something you fancy, we meet every Wednesday and Friday at 8.00am to walk for an hour and then usually go for a coffee. For meeting point, contact Gwen on gwen@freeflowdivers.com
