As well as 的文法
Using 'as well as' with verbs?
Follow
Some guides say to add 'ing' to the verb after 'as well as'.
E.g. 'I joined the sports club and the music club, as well as participating in the student government and serving as a class leader.'
ALSO: 'The new clinic treats sick people as well as providing young doctors with a place to acquire practice.'
But what if the sentence is like so: 'I can sing as well as dance.' Should it be 'I can sing as well as dancing.'? Sounds funny to me.
OR 'I like to play soccer as well as play basketball.' Should it be 'I like to play soccer as well as playing basketball.'?

OR 'I like to play soccer as well as play basketball.' Should it be 'I like to play soccer as well as playing basketball.'?
Update : Found the answer myself. If there is an infinitive before the verb such as 'to' or 'can' then the verb after 'as well as' should not have and '-ing'. Else, it must have an '-ing'.
Update 2: So, it should be: 'I can sing as well as dance.' and 'I like to play soccer as well as play basketball.'
BUT: 'I swim on weekends as well as playing tennis on Wednesdays.'
The '-ing' is necessary after 'as well as' unless the main clause has an infinitive before the verb such as the 'to' in 'to play' or the 'can' in 'can sing'.
