Softball (Boys)
Passionate about working together as a team to grow as a person? Look no further, softball is the sport for you! Here at Hwa Chong Softball, we value teamwork, sportsmanship and dynamic thinking. We take pride in succeeding both on and off the field, as we use the skills we learn on the field in our daily lives. As a CCA, we never give up on each other or on ourselves. Our coaches and teachers not only take the responsibility of educating us as ballplayers, but also place emphasis on character development so that we leave Hwa Chong a better person.
We have gym sessions every Monday, developing the strength and physicality we need. We have field training every Tuesday and Thursday, giving us the opportunity to work on our game individually and as a team. We also occasionally hold intra-team scrimmages so as to facilitate batch bonding and to allow us to apply what we have learnt in an actual game setting.
Additionally, as much as we value the sport, we also hope to give back to our community. Softball has its own SL project titled “Project Meatball”, which aims to increase digital literacy rates amongst seniors in Singapore.
Softball (Girls)
Do you want to try a new sport but do not know what to choose? Look no further! Hwa Chong Softball (Girls) is a close-knit team of athletes who always strive to be their best. Besides improving our physical states through training and gym sessions. We also improve mentally as athletes, learning how to perform under pressure, as well as keeping our composure even at the most critical situations. In competitions, it is crucial that everyone on the team works together well and understands each other, which is why we have several team bonding events, like fortnightly batch dinners after training, as well as CCA camp. To each other, we are not just teammates, but close friends who support each other in and outside of training. Besides NSG, we are given many other chances to practise our in-game skills and test our limits, such as SRC and friendly matches we have with other schools. In softball, you have to be hardworking and dare to try, and always give your best. If you want to feel the adrenaline from a ball bouncing off your bat, or the moment where the ball rolls to you and time seems to stop, join Hwa Chong Softball (Girls) now!
