Wings Athletic Club is a Singapore-registered non-profit society that was officially founded on 18 April 2000. We organise training programmes, competitive events and social activities for youth athletes, with the aim that all youth athletic enthusiasts will find our Club a place to meet, challenge themselves and sharpen one another.
On 1st May 2000, some of our present committee members met for the first time to discuss the formation of Wings. From a humble beginning of rallying enough like-minded enthusiasts to form the Club, we have today more than 50 members actively coaching, training, competing in various competitions and organising club activities such as Cross Country and Track & Field Championships, Training Camps, End-of-Season Celebrations and other social get-togethers
