From Player to Leader: TP Volleyball Captain Jahan Serves Up Success On and Off the Court

The article highlights Jahan, captain of the Temasek Polytechnic (TP) men’s volleyball team and recipient of the Temasek Student Excellence Award (TSEA). He reflects on his early beginnings in volleyball of how his parents encouraged him to follow his older brother's footsteps, and how his passion grew over the years.

 

When he enrolled into TP, he initially struggled to balance academics and sports, but with support from his volleyball seniors, he was able to manage the demands of both whilst improving his time management and leadership skills.

 

Volleyball has not only allowed Jahan to form strong friendships but also instilled in him and his team values of humility and composure during competitions. Under his leadership, TP secured three consecutive POL-ITE championship titles. He also took on the role of mentoring junior players. In recognition of his contributions, he was awarded the Sportsperson Excellence Award under TSEA 2025.

 

Jahan expressed gratitude for the honour, attributing his success to the support of his team and coaches. Looking ahead, he hopes to return to TP after graduation to continue coaching and guiding future players as a part-time instructor.
