Dulwich College Shanghai Puxi is delighted to share some fantastic news from the FOBISIA Swimming Championships. Our Mustang swimmers delivered an outstanding performance and competed against over 600 athletes from across Asia.

Across three days of high-level competition, our swimmers demonstrated determination, resilience and sportsmanship, achieving personal bests across the board, winning over 20 medals and delivering several record-breaking performances.

Record Breakers

Our younger swimmers stood out in the relay events, demonstrating teamwork, composure and racing maturity on a big international stage:

Boys 10 & Under – 200 Freestyle Relay – 2nd Place

Boys 10 & Under – 200 Medley Relay – 4th Place

Quentin F and Harry C both set new FOBISIA records in the 50m Freestyle in their respective age groups—an extraordinary accomplishment that highlights the strength of our programme at the international level.

'Our team of 20 dedicated swimmers represented the school with pride, determination and sportsmanship, and the results were truly exceptional.

Beyond the Water, Rising in Excellence

Our swimmers represented Dulwich Puxi with pride. Their positive attitudes, teamwork and interactions with competitors, coaches and officials were exemplary, reflecting the values of our school. The competition created a shared sense of achievement and pride among swimmers, parents and teachers alike.

'Swimming and aquatics are so important. Competitive swimming gives our students a chance to really commit to training, and compete against their biggest rival: themselves! Being with the team in Thailand was a real honour, the students were fantastic, our community is so proud and the work the coaches are doing is simply incredible.'——Matt Uffindall，Director of Sport

Our Mustang Swimming Programme

The success at FOBISIA reflects the strength and consistency of the Mustang Swimming Programme at Dulwich Puxi. Swimming lessons begin as early as 2 years old, with a focus on water confidence, enjoyment and skill development, following the Swim England Programme.

Progress is tracked and celebrated through certificates and badges, ensuring students experience growth, achievement and challenge. Lessons are differentiated to match ability, helping every student reach their potential.

As they advance through the College, swimmers not only refine their technique but also learn how to practise, improve and support one another as part of a team.
