SwimTogether Singapore 2026 holds its last pool day at Jurong West Swimming Complex on Saturday 14 November, from 9am to 1pm, and registration is free. The inclusive swim pairs persons with disabilities (PwDs) with the wider community, lap for lap, in dedicated lanes.
Saturday matters more than planned. The October session at Sengkang Swimming Complex was cancelled because of the haze, so the 2026 edition comes down to two days: Delta Swimming Complex on 12 September, and Jurong West this weekend. Walk-ins are accepted.
How it works
PwDs and able-bodied swimmers are encouraged to pair up and swim together, whether that means completing laps side by side, encouraging each other, or sharing a lane for the morning. Both the Training and Competition pools are open, with lanes set aside for clocking laps.
The Singapore Disability Sports Council (SDSC) organises the event, and ActiveSG carries it on its events calendar.
Who can swim
Swimmers of all abilities aged five and above can take part. Children under 14 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, which can also be a coach, teacher or caregiver.
The Most Laps Swum title
For anyone who wants a target, there is a Most Laps Swum title in six categories. Laps from all event days are added together, so swimmers who clocked laps at Delta in September go into Saturday with a head start. Each winner takes home a trophy and a S$100 NTUC voucher.
- Individual
- Individual (PwDs: intellectual disability, autism, sensory)
- Individual (PwDs: physical disabilities)
- Individual (seniors aged 60 and above)
- Team (at least four swimmers)
- Team mixed abilities (at least four swimmers, including at least one PwD)
Getting to Jurong West
Jurong West Swimming Complex is at 20 Jurong West Street 93, close to Pioneer MRT station. It has a feature pool and an inclusive pool, and the access details matter for this event: a pool wheelchair is available on request from the Guest Officer, the Training Pool has a ramp for wheelchair access, there is an accessible toilet, and the nearest lift access is on Level 2.
The complex closes every Tuesday for maintenance, which does not affect a Saturday session. Outdoor facilities at ActiveSG venues can close in bad weather as a safety precaution, so check the NEA weather nowcast for the west before heading out on Saturday morning.
How to sign up
Register online through SDSC’s event page on Eventbrite, where tickets are free, or simply turn up as a walk-in on the day. Teams chasing the mixed abilities title should make sure at least one of their four swimmers is a PwD before they arrive.
