Sports and Leisure

NTU and NIE both have excellent sports facilities and foster an active, athletic community.

Students-&-staff:

The Sports and Recreation Centre (S & RC) organize their teams, clubs etc.

Staff:

Staff and their families can also use the Sports and Recreational Centre facilities, subject to booking them in the appropriate manner.  If you want to join a sports club, ask the leader of the club by calling (number is available from the office) or asking them in person when you see them training.  There is a group of boys who live in staff housing who have joined various martial arts clubs and enjoy the training and the convenient location.  Here is a list of activities open for the families:

Facilities that may be used by staff and their families include:

NTU grounds:

• Running track (please do not use with prams, bikes, roller skates or anything else that might damage the surface)
• Basketball, volleyball, netball, etc. tennis, badminton and squash courts – book through S&RC
• Olympic-sized swimming pool (staff free, family membership at minimal price)
• Air-conditioned and fanned gyms for various sports

NIE grounds –

These are not generally used by the public as much, but if you want to rent any of the following, you may contact the concerned staff. 

• Multi Purpose Hall,  Hockey field, Squash courts
• Outdoor sports courts (tennis, basketball, netball, handball, volleyball)

The Staff Recreational Club offer facilities for booking and organize fitness classes, sports activities, short trips, lunch talks and workshops. 

Staff and immediate family members of staff may use the facilities and join the activities, but priority and cheaper rates are given to members of the SRC. When a course opens, an email goes out to staff, so let your partner working at NTU/NIE know if you are interested in a course, so that they may forward the email quickly.  Courses popular for women offered at lunch tend to fill up within an hour.  Openings for courses are also advertised to those who are on the NanyangConnect list server.  Otherwise, there are always updates on their website. 

The Staff Club has a gym available to staff and their families which has a fully equipped gym and shower facilities.  Membership terms apply. They also have a lounge with live music, KTV rooms, pool and rent out different sized rooms for functions and workshops.
