ACAMIS Volleyball Tournament

 

From 29 October to 1 November, our Panthers Volleyball teams represented us at the ACAMIS Volleyball Tournament hosted by Suzhou Singapore International School (SSIS).

Across three days, both the boys and girls competed in a series of round-robin and playoff matches against top international schools from across the region, including Dulwich College Beijing, Renaissance College Hong Kong, Chinese International School, BISS, and hosts SSIS.

The boys' team had an excellent start, dominating pool play with wins over RCHK, CIS, and BISS. After advancing to the semi-finals, they narrowly missed a place in the finals after a hard-fought battle against their rivals from Dulwich Beijing. The team claimed an impressive fourth place overall.

The girls' team also impressed, recording victories against CIS, RCHK, and producing a standout three-set win over Dulwich Beijing. After pushing every opponent to their limits in the playoffs, the girls too secured a well-earned 4th-place finish.

 

A special thank you goes to our graduating players, whose leadership, commitment, and years of contribution to Dulwich Pudong volleyball have left a lasting impact on the programme.
