Dive into the world of goalball and learn the moves of blocking & rolling with Bukit Canberra ActiveSG Swimming Complex's very own national athlete, Coach Joan Hung! Led by Coach Joan Hung, who was part of the ASEAN Para Games (APG) 2022 silver-winning team, participants will learn the fundamental techniques of Goalball (blocking & rolling) and understand the rules of the game.

Players attempt to score by rolling a ball equipped with bells into the opposing team’s goal, while opponents listen for the oncoming ball and attempt to block it with their bodies.
