It is a pleasure to host the MRISA (Mekong River International Schools Association) Senior Basketball Tournament, 2018 from 1-3 February. We are proud to belong to MRISA and feel very privileged that our students can participate in healthy competition and fair play.
This year 160 athletes will be competing as we welcome our MRISA teams from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia. MRISA is always a great opportunity for students to experience a cultural exchange and make new friends as well as reconnect with friends from prior tournaments.
The tournament will allow all students to demonstrate their teamwork and love of basketball in two days of competition. However, in the spirit of MRISA it is also a time that all participants demonstrate the characteristics of a true athlete, showing respect and sportsmanship.
We hope to make this one tournament to remember. Thank you for your active participation and best of luck to all of the teams and their coaches.

Last week, our second annual NISC Cup kicked off, with four schools and over one hundred students facing off to see who would be taking home the silverware on offer in separate boys’ and girls’ competitions. Last year CIA girls’ team won a thrilling final and were hoping that the cup would be returning to their school for a second year in a row, while our own NISC boys’ team were hoping to retain their hard won 2023 title.
The other week I was in Bangkok at the ASAC Basketball Tournament that is open for Grade 6 – 8 students from 9 competing schools across South East Asia. It gave me some time to reflect on the benefits and opportunities that our Northbridge students can access that will develop them holistically and physically.
