Description
Summary:A seminar on SPEX 2000 and the Schools (Singapore Sports Council, 1994) outlined the symbiotic relationship that needed to exist between schools and NSAs if potential champions are to be groomed.

In order to gain understanding of this process, a case study was conducted in Broadway Secondary School*, a school that has a tradition of producing excellent results in sports.
