This past week marked a significant milestone as our athletics program made its much-anticipated return on August 27th, led by our Varsity Boys and Girls Volleyball teams. Facing off against SMA 1 Kota Tangerang Selatan, both teams took to the court with enthusiasm, determination, and the spirit of competition.
The Varsity Boys Volleyball team put up an impressive fight, showcasing their skills and resilience. The match was intense, with the boys pushing their opponents to the brink in one of the sets. Their near victory in that set highlighted their potential and the hard work they’ve been putting in since the restart of the athletics program. Although they ultimately lost the match, their performance was a testament to their growth and the bright future ahead.
On the other hand, the Varsity Girls Volleyball team also demonstrated their dedication and commitment to the sport. Despite the final score, which saw them losing to SMA 1 Kota Tangerang Selatan, the girls gave it their all on the court. Their effort and perseverance were evident in every play, and while the outcome wasn’t in their favor, their tenacity was inspiring.
Looking ahead, our Varsity Boys and Girls Soccer teams will kick off their seasons with their first matches on August 30th at Jakarta Intercultural School.
