Behind every elite athlete is often a family making countless sacrifices that few people ever see. From early morning training sessions and overseas competitions to balancing school, finances and expectations, what does it really take to support a child chasing sporting excellence? Ahead of the World Cup and with global sporting dreams capturing attention once again, we speak to the mothers of some of Singapore’s most accomplished athletes — May Schooling, Hwee Keeng Maeder and Dawn Tan — about the realities of raising elite athletes and whether Singapore is becoming a place where sporting talent can truly thrive.
