welcome from our secondary principal
Welcome to 2018 CEESA MS Girls' Volleyball Tournament! It brings us great pleasure to welcome you to the Anglo American School of Sofia for this year’s CEESA MS Girls’ Volleyball tournament. Whether it is an athletic event, an academic exchange, or engaging one another in a service venture, we at AAS treasure these hosting opportunities because we learn so much through getting to know new people while sharing a little bit of what we do here. So we open our doors for this year’s version of the CEESA Volleyball tournament and we hope you have an amazing experience. Coaches, thank you for preparing your volleyball players up to this point. We know they all have grown as a result of your guidance and leadership. Enjoy this moment and know we join you in celebrating this season ending tournament. Community of AAS, thank you for all of the little things you’ve done to allow us to open our doors to our guests. It is truly an entire community effort! A special note of thanks to our host families is also due. We cannot run these exchanges without your generosity and hospitality. You are the face of AAS and we are thankful. In appreciation... Competitors, congratulations! This tournament has representation of student-athletes from throughout Central and Eastern Europe. We know you’ve put in many hours and days in preparation for this tournament not to mention keeping your studies and learning going all the while! You’ve arrived. We celebrate this significance with you and simply encourage you to enjoy the moment. We hope you have an opportunity to meet some new people and rekindle some friendships made in previous encounters. These are the lasting moments that will be with you for a long time. Compete well, represent with grace, and do your best! As a coach always reminded me, ‘play volleyball with your feet, and use your brains to compete, I share the same advice with you all. Finally I want to thank our Activities & Athletics Director, Andie Urquhart, who has worked tirelessly with poise and a tremendously positive spirit. A word of thanks goes to Mitko Nassapov our Athletics Assistant for your efforts behind the scenes, to our amazing Student Activities Leadership Team (SALT) who have planned much of this tournament, and to Aliki Stavrou our PTO CEESA Rep and Wolves supporter whose volunteer spirit helped coordinate the housing so we could pull off this tournament this year. The entire AAS and CEESA Volleyball communities thank you both. Enjoy the competition everyone!
