Core values of True Grind Basketball

01

Discipline

Discipline is the foundation of growth. We empower athletes to take responsibility for their development by doing what’s required to improve, even when it’s challenging. Through discipline, players build the habits needed to reach their full potential.

02

Attention to Detail

We believe player development is built on the small things. By focusing on fundamentals and details in every drill and movement, athletes learn that how they train shapes who they become—on and off the court.

03

Work Ethic

Progress comes from consistent effort. We expect every athlete to bring focus, energy, and commitment to each session, embracing the hard work necessary to improve and pursue their basketball dreams.

Meet Our Coaches

Leon Kwek:

Leon has been a cornerstone of Singapore basketball from a remarkably young age, joining the national team at just 14. His dedication and talent quickly set him apart, and by 19, he had signed with the Singapore Slingers, where he went on to become the franchise’s all-time leading local three-point scorer. Over the years, Leon has showcased not only his skill on the court but also his leadership, serving as team captain for several seasons and guiding his teammates with discipline, focus, and unwavering commitment.

In 2015, he helped secure a SEA Games bronze medal with the team, and his performance in both domestic and international competitions reflects his consistent drive to improve and contribute to the growth of basketball in Singapore.

Passionate about developing the next generation, Leon is committed to inspiring young athletes to pursue their goals through hard work and consistency. He lives by the mantra: “Trust the Work, not the Word.”

Denilson Soh:

Denilson is a key player for TungSan in the NBL Division 1 Men’s team, where he has consistently demonstrated skill, leadership, and a strong work ethic on the court. He has also been an active participant in the Milo Cup since 2014, showcasing his commitment to developing his game through competitive play from a young age. Beyond team
achievements, Denilson has represented Singapore at the national level, having been selected for the U18 Men’s National Team in 2016.

Known for his perseverance and focus, Denilson continues to grow both as a player and a coach, inspiring teammates through his dedication and passion for basketball. His journey reflects the values of discipline, attention to detail, and a relentless work ethic that drive him to succeed on and off the court.
