A

Sport Singapore created the NROC in 2004 to raise the standard and professionalism of sports coaching in Singapore. It serves to ensure minimum technical qualification of sport coaches, that practicing coaches continue to improve and that coaches provide a safe environment for their athletes.

A provisional membership category was introduced in January 2017 to allow coaches to participate in academic, educational and professional development activities to improve their coaching practice as they work towards completing all requirements of full NROC membership.
