We are happy to introduce Singye Nindak Wangyal, the promising substitute goalkeeper for Transport United FC. At just 18 years old, Singye has already made significant strides both on and off the football field. A recent graduate from Hebron School in Ooty, India, Singye is preparing to further his education abroad, specializing in Hospitality Management and Tourism.

Singye’s passion for sports ignited early, captivated by football at the tender age of four. By six, he had begun his journey in football, inspired by the dynamic plays he saw on TV. His affinity for the goalkeeper position was influenced by his skills in basketball, believing his ability to grip the ball would serve him well on the football field.

Debuting at just 15 during the President Club tournament in 2021, Singye became the youngest player not only in the tournament but also within Transport United. Despite his age, he showcased his skills in a memorable game against Sherubtse College.

Family plays a pivotal role in Singye’s life. He regards his parents as his main sources of inspiration and support, while his younger brother remains his biggest fan, continually motivating him to excel. Internationally, Singye looks up to Emiliano Martínez, the Argentine goalkeeper, for inspiration. Locally, he admires Hari Gurung, from whom he has learned invaluable lessons on and off the pitch.

Singye’s philosophy is that education and sports are crucial for holistic development. He values the discipline, teamwork, and leadership skills he has gained from football, which complement his academic pursuits.

Despite the assumptions some may have about his journey into Transport United due to his father’s presidency of the club, Singye is quick to clarify that his place on the team was earned through hard work and determination. His father’s advice has been clear: respect and a place on the team must be earned through commitment and performance.

Looking forward to the BOB Premier League 2024, starting on May 11th, Singye is eager to contribute to the team. While he has spent much time as a substitute, he views this role as an educational opportunity, analyzing plays and learning from his idols to enhance his own game.

This season, Singye is particularly impressed with the new management and technical team at Transport United. Their efforts to transform and uplift the club have not gone unnoticed, and he is optimistic about the future.

As we gear up for the tournament, Singye extends his best wishes to all teams involved. With his dedication and passion, there is no doubt that he will continue to be a key player in the evolving story of Transport United FC. Join us in cheering on Singye as he pursues both his sporting and academic ambitions with fervor and resilience.
