Welcome to BIS

Athletics

At BIS, we subscribe to the ancient credo - Mens sana in corpore sano - “a sound mind in a sound body”. Sport is an important part of both the regular BIS curriculum and of After School Activities (ASA).

A professional and progressive-minded Physical Education (PE) team and exceptional facilities guarantee a wide range of sports activities across all ages and ability levels. Facilities include sports halls, track and field areas, a fitness centre, and dance studios.

BIS students compete for points, goals and best times as the "BIS Lions", facing other schools in the Munich and Haimhausen region in friendly competitions. Our competitive sports teams also participate in the German International School Sports Tournaments (GISST) (U14 & Varsity) and the European Sports Conference (ESC) (Varsity) and travel to other schools within Germany and Europe. These teams include Skiing, Soccer, Volleyball, Cross Country, Badminton, Rugby, Swimming, Basketball, Volleyball, Tennis and Track & Field.

Students prepare for competitions following structured and balanced training programmes, training vigorously two to three times per week.  While various athletes are recognized for special accomplishments at season’s end, every BIS student who competes experiences the rewards of teamwork and develops “a sound mind in a sound body”.

An international school with the Alps at our doorstep

As an international school with a panoramic view of the Alps, BIS offers its own extra-curricular ski programme in the Scheffau ski region of Austria for preschool ages through grade 12. BIS Community Skiing is open to students, parents and staff on Saturdays in December, January, February and March. Separately, the BIS Alpine Ski Race Team provides competitive opportunities for more advanced students.

Sports Awards

Each year, BIS awards the Shane Walsh Till Commitment to Sport Award to a student who has shown the same 'can-do' spirit and commitment to sport as Shane Walsh Till himself.

Congratulations to Chiara Marcucci on receiving the Award for the 2023-2024 school year.
