●      Sengkang Sport Centre is the first to complete its refresh, with new water slides and revitalised community spaces.

●      Woodlands, Jurong East and Clementi Sport Centres will be progressively enhanced through to 1H 2026.

New features at Sengkang Sport Centre include five new water slides, a refreshed foyer and a second community space for the public to participate in events and programmes.

Singapore, 30 June 2025 – Sport Singapore (SportSG) has unveiled updated features at the refreshed Sengkang Sport Centre, which include new water slides, dedicated space for smaller-scale fitness activities, and new ambient lighting for evening programmes. It is the first of four sport centres to undergo enhancements while remaining open to the public. These smaller-scale enhancements support the Sports Facilities Master Plan (SFMP), ensuring ActiveSG sport centres remain vibrant community spaces for people to come together and embrace active living. Similar enhancement works at Woodlands, Jurong East, and Clementi Sport Centres are currently underway and will be completed by 1H 2026.

“SportSG is committed to providing high-quality, community-friendly sporting facilities. Guided by people-centric design principles, we enhance these spaces to enable meaningful connections and experiences,” said Mr Tan Hock Leong, Chief, ActiveSG, SportSG. “We are committed to continually enhance our sport centres while minimising disruption, so visitors can stay active with ease. These smaller-scale enhancements refresh the look and feel of our sport centres before they undergo larger-scale renovations or redevelopments, with new and upgraded features for everyone to enjoy.”

Sengkang Sport Centre is the first of four ActiveSG sport centres to undergo a refresh. Its updated features include five new water slides at the swimming complex, offering varied experiences from gentle descents to thrilling multi-lane rides. There is also Active Groove, a dedicated space for smaller-scale fitness activities, such as Zumba and K-pop dance programmes. The addition of new ambient lighting at the sport centre enables programmes to extend well into the evenings.

Newly-refreshed foyer features a new LED screen, large ceiling fans and updated lighting to make the space more conducive for community events and programmes, both in the day and in the evenings.

More information on the new features can be found in Annex A.

Refresh, Rejuvenate and Redevelop: SportSG’s Approach to the Various Facilities Projects

The refresh of Sengkang, Woodlands, Jurong East and Clementi Sport Centres involve light to medium-scale enhancements. These are done with no long-term closures, allowing the public to continue using the facilities with minimal disruption. Works under such projects include façade repainting and cleaning, landscaping, restroom improvements, and updates to roofing and flooring. Selected areas of the sport centre may also be temporarily closed off to facilitate medium-scale enhancements, such as the installation of new pool features and retiling and repainting of larger façade areas. Works at these sport centres are being conducted in stages and scheduled for completion by 1H 2026.

More details on the planned upgrades that the community can look forward to are in Annex B.

Meanwhile, rejuvenation projects require extended closures for major upgrades. These include medium-scale works like swimming complex maintenance and repainting, as well as larger renovations such as indoor sports hall upgrades and new facility construction. Ang Mo Kio Swimming Complex, with a new sheltered swimming pool and fitness spaces, is expected to be completed by end-2025. Queenstown Sport Centre, offering more free-to-play spaces and refurbished pool amenities, is also expected to be ready by end-2025. Hougang Sport Centre’s rejuvenation is set to be completed by 2026.

SportSG also continues to introduce new developments. They include the Punggol Regional Sport Centre which will serve one of Singapore’s fastest-growing residential areas. With completion planned for 2026, the centre will house sheltered tennis and futsal courts, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, as well as a 5,000-seater stadium.

These projects support SportSG’s broader SFMP goals to deliver quality infrastructure that cater to the diverse and evolving sporting needs, interests and aspirations of the community.
