For both boys and girls, generally RJ and VJ (although EJC was a finalist in A Div girls last year comp and ACJC girls has been consistently very good as well).

DSA sports from secondary to JC relatively straightforward since there are fewer, likely none, unknown entities. The seniors and coaches will likely point the way.

Thanks for the information! Sounds like ACJC, or maybe EJC would be great choices. Mid-tied schools suits her learning style better..

Questions: Will there be any academic requirements on top of outstanding hockey standards? Does the player position matters? Does the club she plays for matter? Is it hard to cope academically?

Oh yes, she is probably more informed than I am.. and takes instruction from seniors and coaches as well. Would like to source for more view points.

For A division hockey girls, I think it was EJC vs VJC in the finals for the past 3 NSG (2022, 2019, 2018).
EJC won in 2022 and 2019.
VJC won in 2018.

And I agree that if you are already competing in the B division, you should know better which are the stronger schools and which are the ones you want to join.

Thanks for the update on EJC. I haven’t been following hockey for a while, though I do frequent Anchorvale Sports Complex and see a number of teams training there.

I guess EJC doing well for hockey girls shouldn’t be a surprised considering that both SNGS and SCGS are among the stronger teams in C and B Div competitions.

you looking for DSA (hockey) ?

can try applying for DSA (RI), if your child is keen. RI has Sports domain \"hockey\".

https://www.ri.edu.sg/admissions/year-5-admissions/year-5-direct-school-admission


Alternately,

can also ask your Sec 4 child
to google
those Junior College(s) DSA website, that he or she is interested in and apply.

Thanks! Looking for mid range schools for a dear friend.

Of course there will be academic requirements. They will look at your Sec 3 and Sec 4 report card, your overall L1R5

Oh I didnt know scgs has hockey. So I googled — it is a new cca :siam: that started this year
The B and C division is usually SNGS, Crescent, STC and Sengkang.

Yep, B and C division hockey girls are mostly from Crescent, St Theresa's convent and SNGS.. they feed into EJC, VJ, ACJC, RI (DSA).

Do share if you have hockey DSA experience. Thanks!

I wonder why there is a separate Phase 1 and Phase 2 for DSA to JC. Like 2 chances to try (for those schools which participate in both phases).


When I compared the list of schools which participate in Phase 1 only, vs those which participate in both phases, it seems that IP JCs are the ones which participate in Phase 1 only. And yet, NJC is the exception which participates in both.

Anyone can shed some light on this?
