Our Story
Helping You Move Forward
At 28° Aquatic, our mission is to foster the development of young individuals, transforming them into confident, capable, and motivated athletes. Founded by Ng Ker Wei, a former national water polo athlete, we specialize in providing swimming and water polo coaching for children aged 2 and above, ranging from leisure to competitive levels.
Our journey has been marked by monumental support from key water polo authorities, including the Co-Curricular Activities Branch (CCAB), Singapore Swimming Association (SSA), Singapore Water Polo (SWP), and the esteemed Mr. Tom Hoad. With the backing of these influential figures, including Mr. Tom Hoad, a former water polo athlete currently coaching at the Melville Water Polo Club in Australia, we successfully introduced an independent Flippa Ball Club (Introduction to water polo) in 2007.
​
What sets us apart is our commitment to enhancing players' skills in a safe and enjoyable environment. At 28° Aquatic, we believe in the philosophy of having fun while winning. Our approach extends beyond physical training, incorporating mental cultivation through theory, sportsmanship, and life coaching. Our highly motivated coaches take pride in establishing strong bonds with our athletes and their parents, creating a close-knit community within the wider water polo network.

We strive to create an environment where each player, regardless of skill level, is inspired to reach their full potential both in and out of the pool. Through relentless dedication, respect for the game, and support for one another, we aim to not only compete at the highest levels but also to build lasting friendships and memories.

Together, we are not just a team; we are a family, bound by the shared love for the sport and a collective vision of achieving greatness.
Our Mantra
"Splash with Purpose, Soar with Pride: Champions in Every Stride."
Our mantra combines the dynamic nature of water polo ("Splash with Purpose") with the idea of achieving success and feeling a sense of pride in one's accomplishments ("Soar with Pride"). It encourages the team to approach every move in the water with intention and to take pride in their efforts, fostering a mindset of champions both in and out of the pool.
