Singye Nindak Wangyal, Rising Star at Transport United 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.

Ugyen T Nadik’s Journey with Transport United FC The year was 2017, and a celebratory roar echoed through Transport United. Escaping the B Division, they’d secured a coveted spot in the prestigious Bhutan National League. This victory reignited a fire within me – a passion to witness Transport United reclaim its past glories. So, I joined the club, eager to contribute as their dedicated media manager. Capitalizing on the burgeoning social media scene, we were among the first Bhutanese clubs to establish a professional online presence. Facebook and Instagram became our battlegrounds, and the first two years were a period of exhilarating success. Victories piled up, and crafting match reports, designing electrifying posters, and meticulously tracking statistics brought me a joy as potent as the thrill of each win. As our fanbase swelled, the demand for engaging content on social media mirrored their enthusiasm. My dedication transcended mere membership. Week after week, I poured my heart and soul into creating content, fueled by a fiery passion that burned brighter with each passing season. With the unwavering support of fellow members and our loyal fans, we tackled every obstacle, with the club’s well-being always paramount. However, by 2019, a yearning for evolution took hold. Since our ties with the founding organization, the Road Safety & Transport Authority, had loosened, we felt a name change was a logical step. We even designed a fresh logo and a captivating anthem, ready to usher in a new era. Ultimately, though, the weight of history proved too strong. We were swayed by the global recognition of the “Transport United” name and the rich legacy it embodied. We decided to preserve this heritage while simultaneously revitalizing the club’s image. Transport United FC boasts a legacy built on exceptional executives, a skilled technical team, talented players, and the unwavering spirit of our fans. We’ve weathered every storm together, enduring the highs and lows since our last major championship in 2018. My love for the club has only strengthened as we continue to rebuild and push for glory. As their media representative, my passion isn’t confined to words; it’s a deep-rooted commitment reflected in everything I do. Transport United FC transcends the boundaries of a football club. It’s a symbol of community, camaraderie, and dreams woven together. Every matchday, I step into the stadium buzzing with an electric anticipation. It’s another chapter in our club’s story unfolding before my eyes. The opponent, be it a fierce rival or an unknown force, does not diminish my unwavering support. This journey extends beyond the pitch. Our club is a beacon, inspiring the next generation of players and fostering unity within our community. From grassroots initiatives to charitable endeavors, Transport United FC represents more than just football – it embodies hope, resilience, and the power of collective spirit. Through the lens of media, my role is to capture and communicate this fervent passion to fans across the globe. Whether it’s crafting match reports, interviewing players, or engaging with supporters online, I strive to amplify the spirit of our club and share it with the world. My passion for Transport United FC isn’t just a job; it’s a calling. It’s a privilege to represent this club and share our journey. Every day, I approach my role with immense gratitude, boundless enthusiasm, and an unwavering dedication to the cause.
