Handbook - Dulwich College Shanghai

Introduction
Dear Parents,
The mission of the the College Sports Department is to ensure the opportunity for all students to try out for
College representative sports teams and experience dedicated and focused coaching within season. We
offer a broad range of activities and are members of several sporting associations here in China, as well as,
across South East Asia.
We have a strong and committed coaching staff at the College with many nationalities contributing to the
programme. This year we have assigned Heads of Sport for Basketball, Football, Netball, Rugby, Volleyball,
and Swimming. These coaches have many years experience in their respective sports and the enthusiasm
to improve the programme at the College. You will see them and read a little about the sports later in the
handbook.
I am a firm believer that performances improve when students are supported. I invite all parents to come
and watch their children play competitive fixtures here at the College and away from home. Students and
coaches really do appreciate, and are motivated, by crowd support.
Please take a moment to read and familiarise yourself with the sports handbook. I hope you will find the
answers to many of your questions regarding DCS competitive sport, rules and regulations and what we
offer and when.
We look forward to another successful year for our teams and students and hope that all activities are
enjoyed in the spirit that embraces great sport.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any queries or concerns on

Kind regards,
Gray Lyons
Director of Sports
