For Ben, this recognition carries a deeper significance within the broader context of his sporting ambitions. His ultimate dream is to play cricket professionally and to represent Singapore one day, and he is already taking meaningful steps towards that goal. Most recently, he was selected for the U15 Singapore national development squad, a significant milestone that reflects both his talent and his dedication to the sport.
Ben’s influence extends well beyond his own performance. As captain of the NLCS U14 cricket team, he relished the opportunity to guide and encourage younger players, many of whom had limited experience with hard ball cricket. “Motivating each other was really key, as good team spirit can help change a game,” he reflects. Looking ahead, Ben is keen to extend that commitment to junior coaching at the Singapore Cricket Club, demonstrating a generosity of spirit that sets a wonderful example for the wider sporting community.
Ben embodies the values of leadership, resilience, and sportsmanship that we nurture at NLCS (Singapore), and we look forward to following his journey with great pride in the years to come.
