What is the Booster Club?
The BOOSTER CLUB promotes school spirit while supporting ISB students involved in athletics, the arts, and academic programs like MUN and Debate & Forensics. While our focus is on HS students involved with or competing at the IASAS level,
we also support and encourage our HS, MS and ES students competing in the BMAC sports events and involved in the arts. BOOSTER PARENTS are dedicated and fun-loving parent volunteers!

The Interscholastic Association of Southeast Asian Schools (IASAS) is an association of six schools in and around Southeast Asia. The member schools are International School Bangkok, International School of Kuala Lumpur, International School Manila, Jakarta Intercultural School, Singapore American School, and Taipei American School.
The IASAS organization seeks to serve as an extension of school curriculum by enhancing student development through academic and intellectual pursuits, sports competition, fine and performing arts activities and intercultural opportunities.
Some of the activities organized by the Booster Club in support of IASAS are:
Hosting the pre-IASAS barbeques/receptions for the IASAS teams/groups and distribution of the IASAS travel duffle bags to IASAS participants and coaches/advisors.
Providing hospitality for visiting coaches, advisors and students.
Promoting school spirit and Panther Pride during IASAS events.

What is BMAC?
The Bangkok Metropolitan Athletic Conference is an athletic conference consisting of international schools in and around the greater Bangkok area. Competition is arranged between member schools by age levels (U11, U12, U14, JV & Varsity divisions). The culminating activity for each season is a tournament hosted by one of the BMAC schools. ISB’s participation in BMAC is especially important for the JV, U14, U12 and U11 teams, as this is their only season ending tournament and the highlight of their season.
