Sports competitions and academic events have always been an important part of learning and growing at AIS/D. Each year, students in middle and high school are given the opportunity to participate in numerous sports and academic competitions, including volleyball, swimming, tennis, basketball, soccer, art, math, music cricket, and track & field. SAISA (South Asia Inter-School Association), which is comprised of international schools in the Indian subcontinent region, holds annual tournaments and conventions in each of these activities. These events allow students to travel and explore new cultures, develop both skill and sportsmanship, and expand social bonds with students in AIS/D and around the world. Regardless of whether one travels on the SAISA team, all students who try out can improve their skill, enrich their experience, and become an integral part of the AIS/D school community.
