Club career
Early career
Delwinder started his career with Tanjong Pagar United in the 2011 S.League season. Despite still being a teenager, he was handed the captaincy of the Jaguars.[3] After leaving the Jaguars, he played for Geylang as well as the Young Lions.
Hougang United
Delwinder was left without a club after he was released by the Young Lions as his NS obligations meant that his unpredictable schedule made it hard for him to attend training regularly. He was given a lifeline when the LionsXII allowed him to train with them to keep up his fitness. He impressed the Cheetahs when he played for the LionsXII in a friendly against them and was subsequently offered a contract.[4]
After making over 40 starts in league and cup competitions for the Cheetahs, Delwinder was handed a contract extension for the 2017 S.League season.[5]
International career
He was handed his first call-up to the national team in 2011.[6] He became one of the youngest player to represent the Lions when he made his debut for the senior team against Philippines when he was just 18.[3][7] As of March 2016, Delwinder has 5 Singapore caps to his name.[7]
