In the pool, Yu Tyng and Hayley added valuable medals to the tally, while our Swimming captains, Hanna and Juha, were exceptional role models throughout the day. Hanna delivered immense performances in the pool, and Juha fearlessly took on some of the toughest events, leading by example with courage and determination. The perfect ending to a brilliant opening day came with the entire team celebrating together by jumping into the pool as one.

Throughout the group stages, both teams showed composure under pressure and played with confidence to earn their places in the Semi Finals. The B Team impressed with outstanding fielding against Shrewsbury Bangkok, while the A Team produced excellent batting to defeat Dover Court Singapore.
The B Team then battled their way into the Final against the International School Brunei in a thrilling contest that went right down to the final few runs.

The A Team were also on fire throughout the tournament, producing steady results to secure their place in the Final. They led the first innings by two runs before play was unfortunately delayed due to the weather. Returning the next day full of focus and determination, the team picked up exactly where they left off and out-batted Shrewsbury Bangkok to become FOBISIA Tee-ball champions!

The girls’ Final against British School Shanghai, Puxi was an unforgettable match. After a tense 1–1 draw, the game went to penalties. Our girls showed incredible confidence under pressure, with captain Yu Tyng stepping into goal to save one penalty while also scoring one herself. In the decisive moment, Isla calmly scored the winning penalty to crown our girls back-to-back FOBISIA champions!
