S’porean Teen National Athletes Sell Sedap Hard-To-Find 'Nasi Ulam' From Home

Most teens spend their free time on TikTok. Not brother-and-sister Bill and Claire Chan, who run their own F&B business from home selling scones and healthy, freezer-friendly savoury meals. On top of being budding entrepreneurs, Claire, 17, and Bill, 15, are also national athletes and IB programme students.

The duo play competitive tennis, for which they have been training since childhood. They have represented Singapore in international tournaments like the ITF World Tennis Tour Juniors and WTA Future Stars.

Before the Covid-19 pandemic, Bill frequently travelled “12 to 15 times a year for competitions''. Claire, who’s studying for her university admission exams, had to dial back on her tennis commitments. “We both train four hours a day, six days a week off-tournament. During tournament weeks, we could easily spend 35 to 45 hours on the court every week,” she shares with 8days.sg.
