On 21 November, the Sports Awards Night 2025 gathered SIM’s sports community for an evening dedicated to one thing: recognising the effort behind the achievements. The event honoured the dedication, resilience, and discipline shown by SIM’s student-athletes throughout the year.

With over 300 attendees in attendance, the ceremony recognised more than 20 sports teams, celebrating standout performances through awards such as Sportsman of the Year, Sportswoman of the Year, and Team of the Year.

The night was graced by David Chua, CEO of the National Youth Council and SIM Board Member, together with Jorg Bley, Timothy Chan, and Agnes Ang, whose presence highlighted SIM’s continued support for student development through sports.

 More than an awards ceremony, the night recognised the countless early mornings, late-night trainings, and shared setbacks that shaped SIM’s sporting community – reminding everyone that behind every medal is commitment, teamwork, and grit.
