Since returning from Paris on Aug 13, Maximilian’s schedule has been packed with media interviews, meet-and-greet sessions, public talks, private engagements, sponsor events and a bus parade.

Singapore Sailing Federation chief executive officer Leslie Tan told The Sunday Times that the teenager has already participated in nearly 30 such events, with more likely before he flies off on Aug 31 for his races.

Whirlwind of engagement sessions for Olympian Max Maeder, but teen is only too happy to oblige Since returning home from the Paris Games with a kitefoiling bronze, he has participated in nearly 30 such events. Read more at straitstimes.com.

Just over 30 athletes attended an intimate sharing session with our Max Maeder at the National Youth Sports Institute.

Many got the chance to pose various questions to the 17-year-old Olympian kitefoiler.

The youth athletes in attendance were from sailing, climbing, wrestling, wushu, water polo and modern pentathlon.

Max shared candidly on many topics, including how disappointing his first racing experience was as well as how he overcame the monotony of training.

Stay tuned to our socials as we push out snippets of the sessions.

If you missed out on these opportunities to get up close and personal with Max, he also has another meet-and-greet session coming up at *SCAPE on Tuesday, 27 Aug, from 4pm-5.30pm!

Delighted to meet our Team Singapore athletes, Daniel Chan, Max Maeder, and Ryan Lo, at the Rally. Congratulated Max on his Olympic bronze medal, as well as Daniel and Ryan on flying the flag high at the Paris Games! :)

In case you missed it last night, listen to this two-part CNA interview which involved Max Maeder and Minister Edwin Tong!

Max Maeder's success at the Paris Olympics (Part 1) The nation's returning Olympians, including bronze medallist Max Maeder, have received a warm welcome home. CNA speaks to Max, along with Culture, Community ...

“In the case of Max, the name kept coming up, and I spoke to the national sport association (of sailing), I talked to Dr Ben Tan (former Singapore Sailing Federation (SSF) president) and various other people, and he was constantly on the radar.

“So I then put a call through to my classmate and said, ‘Can I meet with Max and his mum?’” – Minister Edwin Tong.

It is not often that a 14-year-old leaves an indelible mark on a minister, but that was exactly what Maximilian did at that very first meeting in 2021 at Mr Tong’s office.

2021 meeting in Paris led to Max Maeder’s Olympic bronze medal After hearing about Max, Minister Edwin Tong met the teen and his mum, and was "blown away". Read more at straitstimes.com.
