FOUNDER'S STORY

In 2002, what began as one father’s mission to bring youth rugby to Singapore has grown into one of the region’s most respected grassroots sports clubs.

After stepping away from a global banking career, Tim Lambert launched Centaurs with just 15 children and a rugby ball. His goal? To give his youngest son and others a sport that teaches more than just technique.

“An Inspired Child is an Inspirational Child” – Tim Lambert, Founder

What began at Ulu Pandan became a community hub at Turf City. When Turf City closed in 2023, Centaurs didn’t pause. We progressed. Today, we train out of Singapore American School with the same conviction.

Sport | Builds | Character

Beyond a club, Centaurs is a movement built on community, connection, integrity and opportunity.
