Welcome ISB Panthers!
I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all our returning and new students and families for this school year from our ISB Athletics. If you are new to ISB our Athletics team looks forward to meeting you in the coming weeks. You can find our office upstairs in the gym area, where you will be met by Khun Siwinee who is our Athletics Secretary. Also working in the office is Khun Boonsueb our Athletic Coordinator, Harold Albert, our wise and experienced Assistant Athletic Director and myself, Andy Vaughan, Athletic Director. We also have Kerry Dyke who oversees our U13/15 program and Mike Rutherford who will be overseeing our U11 program within the department.
ISB Athletics has a very strong parent involvement through our fantastic Booster Club. Our Booster club’s prime focus is to promote and support ISB Athletics, the Fine and Performing Arts and the Academics by encouraging school spirit, hosting events and fundraising. You will meet many of the friendly volunteers at the Booster Hut in the weeks to come and you will quickly notice what a pleasure it is to work with such a great group of parents.
We begin the year very quickly with HS Varsity Sport tryouts beginning next week on Wednesday 15ththrough to Friday 17th, by when initial cuts will be made. HS Practice times are 2.15-4.45 Monday to Thursday and 2.30-4.15pm Friday. All students wishing to play any sport this year need to complete the following two tasks:
1. Register online (with parents) at: https://inside.isb.ac.th/
To assist in the process of obtaining PPE’s Bumrungrad will be set up in the ES Air-conditioned gym next week to administer PPE’s as follows:
Tuesday 14th HS Students Only 2.05-4.30pm
Wednesday 15th HS & MS Students 2.05-4.30pm
Friday 16th MS & HS Students 2.35-4.15pm
If your child makes initial cuts they must have completed their PPE and online registration by Monday 20thor else they will not be able to train. If your child does not get a PPE at school on the above dates they can do so at the Bumrungrad clinic in Nichada, or another hospital, however please ensure they use the ISB PPE form.
Junior Varsity Try Outs will take place the following week on Monday 20th, Wednesday 22nd and Thursday 23rd and athletes will be expected to be registered and have completed their PPE’s by Monday 27th if they make the JV team.
