Message from Head of School

Welcome to Shanghai! On behalf of Concordia Shanghai, it is my pleasure to welcome the student-athletes, coaches, and families joining us for this year’s APAC Table Tennis competition. We are honored to host our friends from AISG, HKIS, ISB, SAS Pudong, SAS Puxi, SFS, and WAB. Thank you for traveling to Shanghai and for bringing your passion and team spirit to our campus. From January 28 to February 1, our facilities will be filled with the energy and excitement that make APAC such a meaningful experience. You have dedicated hours of practice to reach this point, and we look forward to watching you compete with focus, discipline, and heart. What makes APAC truly special goes well beyond the results on the scoreboard. This week is an opportunity to show who you are as student-athletes—how you carry yourself in the close points, how you encourage your teammates, and how you treat your opponents. That is the real measure of excellence. It is Integrity—choosing the honest call in the heat of play. It is Connection—meeting students from other schools and appreciating the community we build across Asia. It is Respect—treating opponents, officials, and teammates with dignity, no matter the outcome of the match. My hope is that you leave Shanghai with new friendships, a deep sense of pride in how you represented your school, and memories that stay with you long after the final match. Play hard. Play fair. And enjoy every moment of APAC. Eric Semler Head of School

Message from High School Principal

We are excited to host APAC Table Tennis this year! What I always appreciate about APAC is how quickly strangers become teammates in spirit. Over just a few days, you see students push themselves, encourage one another, and celebrate both the victories and the near misses. My hope is that each competitor not only plays their best, but also enjoys the conversations, the laughter, and the new friendships that come with being part of an event like this. Our Concordia team is working hard to prepare a warm and welcoming environment for you, and we’re excited to host you on our campus. Thank you to all the coaches and staff who are helping to prepare your school's young competitors to represent their best during APAC. Laura Berntson High School Principal
