Football

At KIS, the spirit of teamwork and athleticism takes center stage with our vibrant boys and girls football teams. Our students lace up their boots, don their team colors, and passionately hit the field, embodying the essence of sportsmanship and competition. With away games that serve as exciting opportunities to showcase their skills and camaraderie beyond the school grounds, football at KIS is more than just a game—it's a thrilling experience that fosters discipline, resilience, and the joy of collective achievement. As students engage in this dynamic sport, they not only develop their physical prowess but also forge lasting friendships and lifelong memories. At KIS, football isn't just a sport; it's a spirited journey that contributes to the holistic growth of our students.

SEASONALITY: Season 1 (September - November); FUTSAL - Season 2

At Kazakhstan International School, we pride ourselves on offering more than just traditional education. Our students actively participate in various facets of school life. We're a part of a local sports league and engage in two international conferences, all coordinated by the Confederation of Almaty Schools and Headteachers (COASH) right here in Almaty.

In the realm of international competition in Central Asia, we're aligned with the Central Asia Federation of Athletics, Activities, and Arts (CAFA). Moreover, we're also actively involved in the Central and Eastern European Schools Association (CEESA), organizing exciting events across Central and Eastern Europe.

Our educational approach goes beyond academics; we're committed to nurturing well-rounded individuals who lead meaningful lives. We start with the fundamentals, emphasizing technical skills and physical development, particularly for our athletes. As our students progress, we introduce more advanced strategies and tactics.

Our guiding principle is elegantly simple: Every member of our community contributes to the collective journey of improvement. Together, we cultivate not only competitive individuals but also thoughtful, engaged, and skilled contributors to society.

Basketball

At KIS, we take immense pride in our distinguished boys and girls basketball teams, where the ethos of athleticism and teamwork converge on the court. The resounding echoes of basketballs bouncing and the crisp swish of netted goals encapsulate the dedication and passion that characterize the sporting culture at KIS. With the inclusion of away games, our teams elevate the level of competition, showcasing not only their skills but also fostering a spirit of unity and camaraderie. Beyond the confines of the court, basketball at KIS is a dynamic pursuit that instills resilience, strategic acumen, and the satisfaction of collective achievement. As our students don their jerseys and step onto the court, they are not merely engaging in a sport; rather, they are embracing an enriching journey that contributes significantly to their holistic development, creating enduring bonds within the structured and spirited arena of basketball.

Availability: Season 2 (November - February)

GO WOLVES!

At KIS, we view education as a holistic journey, one that encompasses not just the intellectual domain but the physical and emotional aspects of growth as well.

It is within this framework that our meticulously crafted athletic programs come to life. Our aim is to provide a nurturing environment where our students flourish, not only as students but as well-rounded individuals equipped with the skills and values that will serve them throughout life.

We believe that the playing field is as important as the classroom, where students discover their physical potential and learn the art of collaboration, leadership, and sportsmanship. These are not merely skills for the present but building blocks for a successful future.
