SEASAC Boys Softball Program GIS 2012

Hosted by

Message from our Principal
Welcome to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for the 2012 SEASAC Softball tournament. It is
our pleasure at Garden International School to host you; the athletes, families and staff
from all competing schools.
In the spirit of SEASAC we hope that over the next two days you will take part in a great
competition, make some friends and experience some of the hospitality of Malaysia.
These two days give you a wonderful opportunity to get to know your team mates,
teachers and opposition.
The organisation and running of these games has relied on a great deal of goodwill,
hard work and support from many people. I would like to take this opportunity to thank
those who have supported this event and without whom the tournament would not have
gone ahead. Our Sports Department for coordinating the event, the tireless work of our
teachers and support staff, the Royal Selangor Club for extending us the use of their
outstanding facilities; and last but not least to your teachers, coaches and supporters,
without whom you would not be here.
This tournament provides an opportunity for you to excel, compete at the highest level
and learn to both win and lose graciously. Most of all it must be fun, so be competitive
but not at the expense of making this a positive experience for all.
Simon Mann
