Fresh Off Their History Making SEA Games 2025 campaign, Team Singapore's 3x3 Basketballers are gearing up ahead of the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup next month at The Kallang PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG / ALDRICH GOH This is a feature article written by SportPlus.sg for The Kallang Group. For more sports events, programmes and human stories of The Kallang, visit The Kallang's 'Here to Play' website . As Asia’s top streetball talent prepares to converge in Singapore for the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup , one athlete returning to the spotlight carries both momentum and unfinished ambition. For Singapore national 3x3 basketball player Aufa Putra , the upcoming tournament at OCBC Square in The Kallang precinct represents more than another international appearance — it’s a chance to build on history, perform in front of home fans, and push Singapore basketball even further on the regional stage. The fast-paced tournament, staged at the world-class The Kallang , formerly known as the Singapore Sports Hub, will once again transform OCBC Square into one of Asia’s most electrifying urban basketball arenas, with fans, music, and elite competition at the heart of the action. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / SHAUN LEE Returning to the Court Where Energy Matters Most For Aufa, representing Singapore on home soil carries a weight that goes beyond competition. “It means a lot — it’s a very special feeling. I’m thankful to represent Singapore once again,” he says. “I remember last year being a special occasion when we were trying to accomplish something on the court. Hearing the fans really helped us get our energy going.” While the Singapore guard enjoys the challenge of hostile crowds overseas, he admits that playing at home brings something unique. “I won’t lie — I love playing overseas and hearing fans against us. But playing at home is always special. I prefer it a bit more.” That home-court atmosphere is expected to be electric when the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup returns to Singapore, with fans filling OCBC Square for one of the region’s premier street basketball spectacles. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH Motivation from Last Year’s Campaign The memories of last year’s tournament still fuel the team’s preparation heading into this edition. For Aufa, the motivation is simple — go further. “The game from last year stays in my mind. It’s been motivating me and our team. We always want to improve and try to go further.” Despite often facing taller opponents in the international 3x3 circuit, Aufa believes Singapore’s identity on the court lies in something else entirely. “We may be undersized compared to opponents, but we play with a lot of heart. We keep the game simple and trust each other. I hope fans see the energy I bring and how we come together as a team.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH The Moment That Changed Singapore 3x3 Basketball Aufa’s return to the Asia Cup comes after a breakthrough moment for Singapore basketball. At the Southeast Asian Games in Bangkok in December last year, the Singapore men’s 3x3 team captured the nation’s first-ever medal in 3x3 basketball, securing a historic silver — and Singapore’s first basketball silver medal at the Games since 2003. For Aufa personally, the achievement was deeply meaningful. “To be honest, I hadn’t won anything in my basketball career before that. It was my first proper accomplishment,” he reflects. “As someone who didn’t bloom early, it gave me motivation and the understanding that I belong — that I can provide something on the court.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH The journey to the podium included a pivotal quarter-final victory against regional powerhouse Philippines — a moment the team now looks back on as the turning point. “That game gave us the confidence. Philippines and Thailand are powerhouses in Southeast Asia, so beating them made us believe we could go all the way.” Even after falling just short of gold, the significance of the moment soon sank in. “Right after the final there was some sadness. But once we stopped and thought about what we had achieved, everyone — the players, coaches — we were smiling. It was good energy.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH Lessons Carried into the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup The experience in Bangkok has shaped the team’s mindset heading into another major international tournament. Aufa says one of the biggest lessons was learning how to respond when matches don’t go according to plan. “Not every game went smoothly. One thing we can build on is what we do when things don’t go our way — how we bring back our energy and tempo.” Interestingly, despite the historic result, Aufa says his personal mindset entering competitions hasn’t changed much. “I’ve always gone into competitions with the same mindset — everything we practise builds up to this moment.” Still, the team’s goals remain clear. “Ideally, a podium finish. But we’ll see what we can do. We go onto the court with a mindset of winning.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / ALDRICH GOH The Kallang: A World-Class Stage for 3x3 Basketball The tournament’s return to the Kallang precinct reinforces Singapore’s reputation as a regional hub for major sporting events. Situated within The Kallang, OCBC Square has become one of the most recognisable outdoor 3x3 venues in Asia. With its open-air urban court, arena seating, music, and fan engagement zones, the venue perfectly captures the culture of 3x3 basketball — a fast-paced format that debuted as an Olympic discipline at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. For Singapore’s players, competing at such a venue in front of a home crowd provides an undeniable boost. “When the environment is in our favour, we play with a lot more confidence,” Aufa says. “There is pressure from the home crowd, but pressure is a privilege. We’ll take it and play with pride.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / SHAUN LEE Why Fan Support Matters for Singapore Basketball Beyond the competition itself, Aufa hopes the event will spark broader interest in the sport. 3x3 basketball, with its shorter games, music-driven atmosphere and street-style intensity, has been growing rapidly worldwide — and Singapore’s recent SEA Games success has helped introduce more fans to the format. “I didn’t know much about 3x3 until I made the team,” Aufa admits. “It took a while before I fell in love with the sport.” Now he hopes fans attending the tournament will embrace both versions of the game. “I hope people who come down will open up to the two variations of basketball — 5v5 and 3x3.” A strong turnout could also help open new pathways for young athletes. “Hopefully it creates more opportunities — maybe more 3x3 competitions in schools. It can help more players find success, especially if they didn’t in 5v5.” A Message to Fans Heading to The Kallang As the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup approaches, Aufa has a simple message for supporters planning to pack the stands at OCBC Square. “We appreciate your support and are thankful for it. We just hope you bring your energy and your voices.” Because for Singapore’s 3x3 team, the roar of a home crowd could once again make the difference between a good tournament — and another historic one.

The highly anticipated fixture will be held at the iconic Singapore National Stadium, where Singapore will look to conclude their qualifying campaign on a high note in front of home fans. Singapore Already Qualified for AFC Asian Cup 2027 Singapore heads into the match with confidence, having already secured qualification for the AFC Asian Cup Finals in Saudi Arabia.

Despite qualification being confirmed, the upcoming Singapore vs Bangladesh match remains crucial as the team builds momentum ahead of the continental tournament.

Midfielder Nur Adam Abdullah also returns to the national setup, marking his first involvement since an international friendly against Chinese Taipei in November 2024. Gavin Lee led the Singapore in making history last year, qualifying for a first major continental competition on merit. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG / JOHN YEONG Gavin Lee: “The Next Match Is Always the Most Important” Speaking ahead of the Bangladesh clash, Lee stressed that the team’s mindset remains unchanged despite already qualifying. “Although qualification is secured, our approach doesn’t change. The next match is always the most important.” He added that playing at home provides extra motivation: “Playing at the National Stadium in front of our fans is always special, and we want to deliver a strong performance to close out the campaign on a positive note.” Singapore vs Bangladesh: Match Details & Tickets The Singapore vs Bangladesh AFC Asian Cup qualifier promises an exciting night of football as the Lions aim to maintain their winning momentum.

Singapore’s National Marathon renamed BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas as organisers unveil new partnerships, race format and runner-first experience A refreshed identity for Singapore's national marathon - the BYD International Marathon presented by adidas. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG / HANIDA HUSSIEN SINGAPORE, 17 March 2026 — Singapore’s premier distance running event has entered a new era. At a media conference today, organisers officially unveiled the BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas , the new identity for the race formerly known as the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon . The announcement marks a significant turning point for Singapore’s only national marathon, with a new title sponsor, a new organising company, and a refreshed race format aimed at elevating the runner experience and strengthening Singapore’s standing on the global marathon circuit. The marathon will now be organised by SG International Marathon Pte Ltd , taking over from Ironman Asia after its 10-year tenure managing the event. The change marks the start of a new chapter aimed at reshaping the race’s image and strengthening Singapore’s position on the global marathon calendar. Sathiyanesan, Event Director of SG International Marathon Pte Ltd. PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANIDA HUSSIEN A New Name and New Strategic Partnerships The rebranded BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas reflects a new partnership ecosystem for the event. Electric vehicle manufacturer BYD has been unveiled as the title sponsor, while adidas joins as the event’s first-ever presenting sponsor. Standard Chartered Bank will remain involved as the Official Bank, continuing a long-standing association with the race despite no longer holding title sponsorship. Each partner will also hold naming rights to specific race categories: BYD Marathon adidas Half Marathon Standard Chartered 10km The marathon distance will retain its World Athletics Gold Label Road Race status, making it the only marathon in Southeast Asia to hold the distinction, while all other race categories are measured and certified by the Association of International Marathons and Distance Races (AIMS). The event continues to be supported by key national partners including Sport Singapore (SportSG) , the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and the Singapore Athletic Association (SAA) . Nicole Low crosses the finish line of the half marathon national championships in first place in 2025. PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANA BASIR New Organiser with a Runner-First Vision The transition comes after Sport Singapore appointed SG International Marathon Pte Ltd as the new organiser following an open grant call last year. The company has been awarded a two-year term with the option for extension. IRONMAN Asia previously organised the race for a decade, during which the event grew significantly in participation and prestige. Under its leadership, the marathon introduced Singapore’s first night marathon, launched a 5km race category, and expanded participation from 46,000 runners in 2016 to about 55,000 runners in 2025. During that period, the event was also named Best Sports Event of the Year five times at the Singapore Sports Awards .

PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANIDA HUSSIEN Speaking at the media conference, Shalindran Sathiyanesan, Event Director of SG International Marathon Pte Ltd, said the new organising team aims to build on that legacy while prioritising runner experience. “Our team is made up of avid runners who have consistently taken part in and observed running events from around the world, including our national marathon, over the years,” said Shalindran. “Our love for running shapes our approach and frames our vision of what we would like to achieve and deliver for Singapore’s largest annual running event.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANIDA HUSSIEN One of the biggest changes will be the introduction of a cap on total race entries, with 52,000 slots available across all race categories. “The decision to place a cap on the number of runners reinforces our focus on creating an enjoyable race experience,” Sathiyanesan said. “We are planning the race with the aim to deliver a meaningful and rewarding event for participants while continuing to uphold its status as Singapore’s only national marathon.” He added that the organisers hope to reshape perceptions of the race and build a broader running culture. “Beyond the race itself, we are focused on building a total brand experience that incorporates local SMEs, running communities and collaborations with international brands while showcasing Singapore’s unique culture.” PHOTO: SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANIDA HUSSIEN New Three-Day Race Format The 2026 edition of the marathon will feature a three-day race programme from 4 to 6 December, designed to spread participation across the weekend and enhance the overall event atmosphere. The schedule will include: Friday morning: Kids’ races Friday evening: 5km and 10km races Saturday morning: Half marathon Sunday morning: Marathon Organisers say the revised format will help create a more engaging race festival while improving the runner and spectator experience.

PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / HANA BASIR Athletes Welcome the New Chapter Singapore’s top runners also voiced support for the event’s evolution. Marathon record holder and past race winner Soh Rui Yong said the marathon has played an important role in the development of local long-distance running. “The Singapore Marathon has always been a key race for local athletes. Many of us grew up racing it, and it’s where we test ourselves against international competition,” he said. Soh added that continued improvements to the event could help raise the standard of distance running in Singapore. “If the organisers can create a race that attracts stronger elite fields and bigger participation, it benefits everyone — from elite runners to first-time marathoners.” Fellow national athlete Vanessa Lee , a multi-time national champion, multi national record holder and past half-marathon winner, said the race remains a highlight of the local running calendar. “For Singaporean runners, racing in your home marathon is always special,” she said. Lee noted that improvements to the race experience could encourage even more runners to take part. “When the event feels exciting and welcoming, people want to come back every year. That’s what builds a strong running culture.” Vanessa Lee (left) is a past winner of Singapore's national marathon half marathon national championships. PHOTO:   SPORTPLUS.SG  / FLAVIA SIM BYD, adidas and Standard Chartered Deepen Their Commitment BYD’s entry as title sponsor signals a new commercial chapter for the race. James Ng, Managing Director of BYD Singapore and President of BYD Philippines, said the partnership aligns with the company’s values. “Running a marathon requires dedication, resilience and a commitment to improving over time. These are principles we value and are key to BYD’s progress in the New Energy Vehicles segment.” “The national marathon is a prestigious event and we are proud to power its next era and support an event that brings communities together through shared purpose.” Meanwhile, adidas will expand its involvement in the race as presenting sponsor, providing official race apparel and launching Singapore-exclusive race merchandise. Chen Rui Yuan, Country Manager of adidas Singapore, said: “adidas is proud to be the first-ever presenting sponsor of Singapore’s national marathon. As we deepen our involvement, we are excited to help shape Singapore’s evolution into a true running city that inspires runners of all levels to cross the finish line stronger.” Standard Chartered also reaffirmed its continued support. Patrick Lee, CEO of Standard Chartered Singapore, said the bank remains committed to the race it helped grow over more than two decades. “We are proud to continue our longstanding association with the marathon, having helped grow the race into the country’s premier mass sporting event over the past 24 years.” Showcasing Singapore on the Global Stage First staged as a competitive race in 1982, Singapore’s national marathon has evolved into one of the region’s most recognised distance running events. Daryl Yeo, Deputy Chief Executive Officer (Development) at Sport Singapore , said the new partnerships mark an important milestone for the race. “With new partnerships, Singapore’s national marathon is poised to meet the evolving demands of the running community,” he said. “Our commitment remains clear: to expand the event’s global footprint and attract an elite field of professional and leisure runners to our shores.” The Singapore Tourism Board also highlighted the marathon’s role in positioning the city as an international sporting destination. Jean Ng, Assistant Chief Executive of the Experience Development Group at STB , said: “As a marquee event on Singapore’s sporting calendar, the BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas draws runners from both local and international communities each year.” “We look forward to welcoming even more participants and their supporters from around the world as the event enters this new chapter.” Looking Ahead With a new organiser, a new title sponsor, and a renewed strategy, the BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas is poised to enter its next phase. For runners, the rebrand promises improved race experiences and stronger international competition. For the city, it represents an opportunity to showcase Singapore as a world-class sporting destination. As Shalindran summed up during the launch: “Our ambition is simple — to create a marathon that Singapore celebrates and the world wants to run.” #SingaporeInternationalMarathon #BYDSIM2026
