If you haven’t realised it, your teacher-in-charge shoulders many responsibilities for you and your school team.
They ensure you have a bus to send you to and from your games, that you have the right coloured jerseys, that you are attended to medically if you fall ill, and most importantly, ensure you balance your studies and your sport.
They do this sometimes thankless job on top of their main duties of teaching.
Let’s recognise their efforts, shall we?
If a teacher’s name is not in the poll below, you can still nominate.
To do so, please nominate in the following format:
full name of teacher (sport, full name of school)

Mr Ng Han Liat, Football, Hong Kah Secondary
Mr Ng instills discipline, team spirit and sportsmanship through various activites that he organised for his team.
He also has a blog for his team, which he asked pupils to write entries.
Alex Chua (Canoeing, TPJC)
Mr Alex Chua is the best teacher-coach ever, and his dedication to canoeing and his students can never be matched. He sacrifices his personal time to train us and he never ever gives up on us. Students actually come to him for advices on life and he’s always so encouraging. He always speaks up for his students and fight for our benefits, sometimes at the expense of himself. He’s the best teacher ever.
