We were delighted to deliver the Virtual Games in partnership with The British School of Brussels.

The Virtual Games was an exciting opportunity for Secondary students to compete against their international peers through a virtual Swimming and Cross-Country Meet. The Games was open to all COBIS schools, including Applicant schools.

Participating schools hosted their own meets between 31 January and 28 February, and submitted their students' scores for ranking. 

The full details on the Swimming Meet can be downloaded here.
