Panthers U11 ISSO Tournament Recap
The British School, New Delhi
We have yet another success story for our Under 11 Panthers! While the rest of the school enjoyed Diwali celebrations on Friday, 25 October, our U11 Boys’ Basketball team battled fiercely at GD Goenka World School for a place in the finals of the ISSO Championships 2024.

Though they narrowly missed the final, the Panthers faced DPS Gurgaon in the third-place playoff. After the disappointment of the semi-final, the team showed incredible mental strength and resilience to bounce back. Their determination was unmatched as they put in a stellar performance to secure the Bronze Medal!
