Students arrived at school early on Saturday morning to prepare for a soccer match against Hiroshima International School. The soccer coach was waiting patiently for the students to arrive so that he could prepare them for the coming challenge. Would the waiting crowd be seeing the new David Beckham or Shinsuke Nakamura in action? We would have to wait and see!

With a final cry of `Boys - Be Ambitious!` the students took to the field. The first match was between the Junior High Schools and after much effort the AICJ team won comfortably 11 - 2. The High School game was a much closer game with AICJ finally winning by 5 - 3.

All of the players from both AICJ and Hiroshima International Schools played with great spirit and determination that it was a pleasure for all students, teachers and parents to watch. The winner, as always, was good sportsmanship.
