Optional Sports and Activities

Alongside the ACCORD ISS social and activity program we also have additional activities and sports available for students to book onto. These additional sports and activities are taught by fully qualified sports specific professionals so all students can expect to be challenged and motivated during the sessions.

ACCORD ISS work closely with local and regional sports providers to provide a full range of additional activities so that all of our ACCORD ISS students have the chance to practice their hobbies or favoured sports. Some of the ACCORD ISS optional Sports and Activities take place off-site at sports specific venues so that our students receive an all rounded experience of English Sporting venues and professional coaching.

Students are also very welcome to bring their own equipment however all equipment is provided, so do not worry if your baggage is a little full!

ACCORD ISS Optional Sports and Activities are subject to availability and we recommend that students book onto additional sports activities as early as possible to avoid disappointment.
