Celebrating Our ISY Volleyball and Football Teams’ Success

Our ISY volleyball and football teams concluded their SEASAC tournaments with resilience, and team spirit.

The girls’ volleyball team ended on a high, winning their final game! Their hard work and unity paid off. The boys’ volleyball team also showed remarkable strength, competing through challenging sets. Both teams built lasting memories.

In football, the girls displayed strong growth and sportsmanship, with some true growth from many players. The boys gained valuable experience from each match, and both teams let the tournament with strong memories and improved skills.

We’re incredibly proud of these young athletes for representing ISY with dedication and respect. Thank you to all the families for your support—your encouragement truly made a difference.

      The ISY high school girls’ football team showcased resilience and growth in their away game at YIS. After a slow start, the team began to find their rhythm in the second half, putting together passing moves that tested the opposition’s defense. Carlotta’s excellent saves kept the game level, while Kyi Sin’s strong contributions in both attack and defense were instrumental. Congratulations to the team for their determined effort and teamwork on the field!
