Padang Cup With 14 representatives, our team competed in a friendly match against the Singapore Cricket Club (SCC) on September 30. Despite taking home the title for the past 3 years, our players were unfortunately unable to continue their winning streak even after putting up a tough fight. The final score was 11 points to 13 points. Ryder Cup On October 28, both adult and junior Members congregated for a friendly game against The British Club. Amid all the adrenaline and great showmanship, our team emerged triumphant as they beat The British Club by a huge margin – 39 points to 17 points. A big thumbs up! Upcoming Events More exciting squash events are lined up for the year ahead, with a tour to Australia and Hong Kong on the horizon.

Pilates Our Pilates Studio will be temporarily closing in early 2018 as part of the redevelopment. From January 8, Pilates classes will be conducted just down the road at International Building, right next to Shaw Centre. Members will still enjoy the same instructors for classes and billing will continue to be done through The Club for your convenience. Members will also be able to park at The Club during class times. This temporary move is scheduled to last until Q3 this year, after which, the Pilates Studio will re-open at The Club.
