We are happy to announce that the SIS Cup 2021 is going to take on 20 - 21 May. Due to the pandemic, the event will be organised locally but will take place simultaneously. Highlights are going to be the team competitions of rope skipping and dance choreography. For the dance choreography, each team will prepare a performance which is going to be shared live. We are looking forward to all the exciting sports activities.
Given the worldwide spread of Covid-19, we are forced to cancel the SIS Cup 2020. The fifth edition of the SIS Cup would have taken place on 18 and 19 May 2020 at SIS Pfäffikon-Schwyz in Switzerland. We are especially sorry for all students and teachers who have already prepared with anticipation and thank everyone involved for helping with the preparations that have been made.

Participating children, and their accompanying teacher, have been booked into two youth hostels. Teams of SIS Switzerland will be staying at the youth hostel Richterswil (photo on the right).

The trend sport for 2020 is tug of war. The game involves usage of a 14m rope. The centre of the rope will be marked and a flag placed at two meters on either side of the centre line. This leaves five meters of space for each team of 4 players. Once a team pulls the opposing flag over the centre line the team wins. Teams will therefore have to pull the other team at least two meters to win.
A varied supporting programme awaits the teams from Brazil. On Wednesday after the sports competition, they will get a school tour through SIS Friedrichshafen and then go to the “Beach Days” in the city.
