From teams winning their tournaments to others learning lessons about the value of teamwork and changing their mindset after a loss, it is clear that every ISA team worked hard, played to the best of their ability and demonstrated exceptional sportsmanship. Go Bears!
Read below for each coach’s reflection on their team’s season.
Track and Field
The sunny Track and Field meet held in Antwerp was a remarkable event for ISA. Our athletes delivered outstanding performances, breaking an impressive seven NECIS records, a feat rarely accomplished in a single meet. Our medal count was equally impressive, with 30 gold medals, 16 silver medals, and 18 bronze medals, along with an exceptional achievement of eight golden relay victories.
Beyond their remarkable athletic achievements, the athletes of ISA exemplified great sportsmanship throughout the meet. They displayed respect for their competitors, cheered on fellow athletes, and celebrated each other’s successes. The success of the meet was also attributed to the fantastic support provided by the parents of ISA’s athletes. Their unwavering encouragement, cheers, and applause undoubtedly boosted the morale of the athletes, creating an inspiring and motivating atmosphere.

Golf
Our team of 12 players, our largest group to date, had a fantastic time! We witnessed remarkable shots throughout the week, including Hyunmin’s incredible hole-in-one at hole number 7 and Sebastien’s fantastic “Nearest to the Pin” on the same hole. The Bears truly ruled!
Because the golf course had 17 more holes, we missed the final by just three shots. We fought hard and Yujin and Sebastien emerged victorious in the final matches. Due to a tiebreaker, we finished in fourth place. Looking ahead, we’re already excited for NECIS Golf 2024 in Luxembourg. Our goal is simple: to improve our performance, reach the final, and have an even more enjoyable time than this year. We will aim to grow our team and embrace the upcoming challenges with enthusiasm. Go Bears!
