T1W6 – 13 Oct 2023
Dear Sabres Family,
I hope you had a wonderful Mid-Autumn Festival Holiday. Here’s a quick update on what we’ve been up to in sports.
CISSA Football/Soccer:
Our boys’ and girls’ teams are continuing to train diligently in preparation for their upcoming CISSA fixtures. All players are showing great commitment and maintaining a positive attitude.
SSL Round 1:
SSIS is excited to host the SSL Round 1 Swim Meet this Saturday, where our swimmers will have the opportunity to compete with hundreds of swimmers from various international schools. We are grateful for our outstanding facilities, dedicated staff, and volunteers who make events like this possible at SSIS.
SISAC Volleyball:
Our D1 and D2 teams had an action-packed week with training and SISAC fixtures. The D1 boys played a competitive game at WISS, while the D1 girls had an exciting home game against WISS, securing a win. Our D2 teams also had fantastic performances during their away SAS fixture, with the boys’ team winning and the girls’ team putting up a strong performance, taking their game to 3rd set. We’re proud of our athletes and coaches for their efforts and achievements!
Ongoing Recruitment:
We currently have openings in our CISSA boys’ and girls’ ultimate frisbee and cross-country teams. Please feel free to contact us for more information regarding our training schedule or to enroll your child.
Our Athletics Programme’s Core Values:
SSIS is dedicated to offering our student athletes a secure, supportive, and inclusive environment for the sports they train and compete in. We aim to foster the holistic development of our athletes, encompassing their physical, tactical, social, and psychological growth. While winning games holds significance for many, it is not the sole bench mark we employ to gauge success and accomplishments in our sports programme.
Thank you for your continued support for our athletics programme!
~ Go Sabres!
Sincerely,
Joseph ATTYA
Director of Sports and Activities
