ACS Cobham runs an extensive athletic programme fielding
Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Middle School teams. Our
athletes compete against other international schools in the UK,
Europe, and Africa. Each varsity season concludes with an
International Schools Sports Tournament (ISST), where ACS Cobham
'Cougars' have established a winning tradition.
Our Athletic Department has over 70 coaches of
whom 80% are members of the teaching faculty. The Physical
Education Department has seven full-time faculty members teaching
across 1st to 12th Grades. The Kindergarten is taught by
specialists in fine and gross motor skills. Our swimming PE
curriculum involves students in Kindergarten to 10th Grade and is
taught by two swimming specialist instructors. In addition,
we also provide instructional classes in a range of activities
including yoga, pilates and aerobics.
State-of-the-art facilities
The 128-acre ACS Cobham campus has the best range of quality
sports facilities of any international school in Europe, with
soccer and rugby fields, softball and baseball diamonds, an
all-weather track, tennis courts, and a six-hole golf course.
In addition, we have a comprehensive Sports Centre which
