Access to and Participation in Sports
ActiveSG is promoting disability sports. Various sports have been adapted for them. In Singapore, the range of sports for people with disabilities includes handcyling, swimming, table tennis and boccia, a ball game that can be played by wheelchair-users with motor-skill impairment (ST 27 Sep 2016)
In 2015, only about one-third of PwDs in Singapore participated in sports on a regular basis (at least once a week)
