History

The Singapore Amateur Cycling Association (SACA) was established on 21 January 1958 as a society and was registered under the Charities Act. In 2011, it underwent a name change to the Singapore Cycling Federation to reflect a new image and objectives of the cycling fraternity to be more than just amateurs.

The SCF is recognised by Sport Singapore as the national governing body for the promotion and development of the sport of cycling. It is affiliated to the Singapore National Olympic Council, the ASEAN Cycling Association, the Asian Cycling Confederation, and the Union Cycliste Internationale.

On 3 Dec 2018, the SCF received the Charity Transparency Awards 2018 from the Charity Council.[1]
