Singapore, 11 November 2026 – The international youth football tournament SingaCup broke a Singapore record last Saturday (7 November). Para footballers completed a 1-kilometre dribbling relay in 5 minutes 13 seconds, setting the record for the “fastest dribbling relay by para footballers”.

The 16th SingaCup was held at ITE College Central. Minister of State for Foreign Affairs and for National Development Alvin Tan, Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Law and for Social and Family Development Eric Chua, and Members of Parliament Dr Hamid Razak and Gabriel Lam were there to witness the new record being set.
Participants from several organisations and schools that support people with special needs, including Chaoyang School, Rainbow Centre and Special Olympics Singapore, took part in the meaningful event.
Alvin Tan, Dr Hamid Razak and Gabriel Lam also joined the para footballers in a friendly match, sharing the idea of “football for all”.
Apart from this, the tournament also ran eight categories for boys and girls, held from 31 October to 7 November.
SingaCup was founded in 2011 with only 12 teams. It has since grown into an international youth football platform that welcomes young players from Asia and beyond.
