The Battle of Bangkok will take place on 7th February 2023, an unprecedented opportunity for our Varsity teams to compete at Muangthong United’s Thunderdome Stadium. This is a chance for our senior players to compete in a professional environment under floodlights. We will be competing against NIST, our main footballing rivals in Bangkok, playing 11v11 football, which was introduced for the first time this year. We will also be playing with an accumulative score from the Boys’ and Girls’ fixtures, giving a total score between the teams. I am incredibly pleased to continue our great relationship with Muangthong United who have been a great supporter of the Bangkok Patana Football Academy.
On Friday 3rd through Sunday 5th February, we will see the return of a SEASAC event to Bangkok Patana for the first time since 2019. Season 2 sports include Rugby, Touch, Basketball and Tennis, all of which this year are being hosted right here in Bangkok. Our Basketball and Touch teams will travel to NIST to compete, whilst over at the Sports Complex, we play host to Rugby and Tennis! SEASAC has 16 member schools across Southeast Asia and provides students with the opportunity to compete against other top international schools. This most often involves our senior students who hold the competition in high regard, at the top level of our sporting calendar! Spectators are welcome at our Sports Complex throughout the weekend to support our students. Best of luck to all competing – Let’s go Tigers!
