At ISM we believe that a strong athletic program compliments a school’s goals. Participation in athletics and activities plays a role in improving the academic performance and social capabilities of a student, thus helping to prepare students to both enjoy and be successful in their future lives. Students at ISM have the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of Athletics, and Activities at the high school, middle school, and elementary school levels. At the elementary level, our students start participating in formal intramural and intermural athletics at Grade 3. At the middle school and high school levels, our students compete as individuals and in teams at the Varsity & Junior Varsity levels at intermural competitions with other international schools in Yangon and Mandalay, and annually compete in several sports tournaments (volleyball, soccer and basketball) outside of Myanmar.
ISM athletic teams put forth hard work, leadership, camaraderie, sportsmanship, and fair play while promoting and fostering a desire to learn about and from athletics.
The success of our program is fostered from the expertise and dedication of our teacher-coaches, and the support and collaboration our parenting community and ISM administration, and ultimately the motivated, passionate & disciplined ISM student-athletes themselves.
ISM is a member of the Yangon Athletic Conference (YAC) a collaboration of four international schools in Yangon, Myanmar. All of these schools compete against each other in sports and engage in a variety of activities including; Model United Nations and Global International Network.
Throughout the various seasons, ISM competes with a variety of other international schools that are part of the MISAC conference in Yangon. At the end of every season, the YAC teams compete at the high school, middle school, and elementary levels. Our practice sessions take place every day in the morning as well as after school under the guidance of an experienced coach. Most of the seeding/friendly games are held during the week and the end of the season tournaments are held over the weekends.

“I love playing on the Volleyball, Basketball, and Soccer team at my school. Sport is my passion and I’ve been able to play multiple sports each season. Everyone has the opportunity to get involved, train and play matches. I’ve also been able to coach the middle school girls Basketball B team”
