In response to MS News‘ queries, a SportSG spokesperson said the incident happened on Sunday (16 Nov) and involved one of its lifeguards and a patron.
The incident happened after the lifeguard informed the patron that the swimming equipment they were using was meant exclusively for ActiveSG’s learn-to-play programmes.
