British School Beijing 
英国国际学校

BSB has nine teams spread across two campuses, ranging from teams of under 7 year-olds to 15 and above. At a primary level, games between both campuses give players competitive experience without being overawed by a foreign environment. In high school, matches are played against other international schools in Beijing and Tianjin. In a trial year with the ISAC community, BSB is currently arranging football and sports fixtures through EABBIS, which would include traveling to Shanghai and Hong Kong. BSB’s football program is taught by an experienced PE department and a few of the more football crazy teachers, ensuring that it is of the highest standard while producing fun, competitive teams for seasons to come.

Beijing BISS International School 
北京BISS国际学校

BISS operates an extensive soccer program for boys and girls from grades 3-C12. Beginning with middle school, teams will be able to participate in a variety of leagues on a national scale such as the International School Athletics Conference (ISAC) with Tianjin and also in the China and Mongolia invitational tournaments (ACAMIS). Enthusiastic and experienced teachers coach players in both friendly and tournament matches. The school has had notable success in recent years with the high school boys team celebrating their third year as national champions, along with the girls high school and middle school boys team each winning the 2007 ISAC tournament within their age groups. Sounds pretty impressive to us!
