Ministry of Education of Singapore supports Bossaball

Bossaball is supported by the Ministry of Education and the Singapore Sports Council.

Dr. Ng Eng Hen, Minister of Education of Singapore, gave a speech at the international education conference in Toronto. The minister presented the educational project and, among other things, spoke of bossaball as a new sport in the Singaporean education. He cited the sport as a highlight of its innovative approach to education: “New learning spaces: One school decided to introduce an unusual sport as part of its physical education programme – Bossaball. This relatively new sport combines elements of volleyball, soccer and acrobatics and is played on an inflatable court fitted with trampolines, against the backdrop of bossa nova music!”
