Details are available below for the next hosting of Bangkok Prep’s Puppy Cup. The meet will be hosted on 14th January 2017.

Shrewsbury International School were the champions of this meet last year and it would be wonderful to retain the Puppy Cup.

This is a development meet and therefore, following last year, any swimmers who attended ISB SwimFest are not eligible for this swim meet. We would actively encourage all swimmers in Year 2 Swim Team and Development Squad to consider this event for their first competitive experience.

Please see Mrs Gill for an entry form or if you are unsure whether this meet would be suitable for yourself. Entries are 750thb and close on Wednesday 7th December at 4pm.

Dear Swimmers and Parents

It has been a busy two weeks for the swim team. Last weekend we attended the ISB SwimFest and yesterday we were at the first hosting of the NIST Falcons Swim Extreme – full results to follow shortly from NIST.

45 swimmers traveled to ISB for the annual two day swim meet where swimmers are permitted to swim in four individual events and two relay events. In addition to the individual age group trophies available, there is also the much coveted team event. Teams compete for the highest total point trophy and the average points trophy (total number of points /  total number of swimmers). Shrewsbury this year went with the focus to achieve the highest average point score.

Shrewsbury placed 2nd in the average points trophy with an average of 17 points per swimmer to Bangkok Patana who took an outstanding 101 swimmers and scored 20 points per swimmer.

In the high point team trophy, Shrewsbury were battling with Bangkok Prep throughout most of the day for 3rd and 4th place, Shrewsbury finished the meet with 770.50 points to finish 4th. This is a superb progression in team scores across the past 5 years.

Well Done to all swimmers, it was an extremely long and hot weekend. I hope you are all proud of your continued improvements.

Dear Parents and Swimmers

The 2017 hosting of the FOBISIA Swimming Championships is scheduled for January 20^th – 22^nd 2017, this falls at the end of the Senior School residential trips week. Due to the high number of swimmers in the Senior School who will be attending the residential trips, this year Shrewsbury International School, Bangkok will not be attending the FOBISIA Swimming Championships.

I am excited to announce that this year Shrewsbury International School, Bangkok have been invited to attend the SEASAC Swimming Championships hosted in March in Singapore for the 12 and Under Age Group only (Age on March 2nd).
