Over 500 Matches were played the weekend, and we had 4 teams competing in this year's China Cup Badminton tournament. This was a great experience for our young teams and a great opportunity to see and meet other students from ISB, SAS Puxi and HKIS.

Last Saturday saw WAB hosting the season ending Tournament for the top division of ISAC Under 14 (Grade 8) International Schools Girls Volleyball Teams from Beijing and Tianjin. It was a wonderful day of tough matches that saw the WAB Grade 8 Girls finish with a 6-5-1 record (6 matches played, 5 matches won, and one loss) and a Third Place Trophy overall for the season.

Congratulations to the Grade 6 Girls Volleyball Team for their hard work this weekend at the ISAC tournament. They played numerous games from 8am to 1pm. At the beginning they had a strong start winning many consecutive games:

From 11th December to the 13th December, the Western Academy of Beijing hosted the first ever Beijing Challenge Basketball Tournament.

As a legacy of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, this tournament aims to increase cooperation and develop understanding and friendships between International and Chinese schools through the medium of sport.
