ISM Athletics

Week 29 Mar 17-21, 2025

This coming Saturday Mar 22 our MS/HS Boys Badminton teams will participate in a great day of badminton at ISM with all gyms being used for our local invitational. A big thanks in advance to all the players, coaches and organizing group for what will be a great day.

-Power Up Alabang hosted the 2nd leg of the YWF Climbing series. For this leg of the series, the Top Rope climbing format was used which was new to some of our team members. Climbers were given 2 hours to complete as many routes as possible, with the goal of reaching the top or climbing as high as they could on each route. The climbers' performance during this period determined the winners of this round of the competition. In addition to the main competition, a side competition for the fastest climber was held before the award ceremony. This event allowed climbers to compete against the clock, adding an extra layer of excitement and challenge to the day. 

Congratulations to all the climbers for their incredible efforts! Coach Jeremy (results also posted at the WC page)

Climb Central Manila will be the host of the 3rd leg on April 12 for bouldering and top rope climbing.
