We are very proud of the opportunities that have been created for all the students who are PSI Panthers; we believe in the value of healthy living attained by participation in sports from the very young ages through the high school years.
Through sport, students develop leadership qualities. Virtues, such as discipline, sportsmanship, effort, respect, motivation and pride are emphasised and make up the core of our philosophy.

PSI offers a variety of activities and sports programmes, starting from the young ages. In addition, a number of competitive sports programmes are offered to older students (Middle School and High School), providing opportunities for competitive play locally as well as internationally.
We strongly believe that our athletics and sports programmes are matched by no other school in the region and we are very proud of what we provide every year to our community. Through the years, the interest and involvement of the students are the driving force for our programmes to exist and all our efforts focus on providing the best services for them!
PSI Panthers is a proud member of the Central and Eastern European Schools Association (CEESA) as well as the Kyiv Schools Sports League (KSSL). Teams compete both locally and throughout the CEESA region.
Middle School (MS) teams train and compete on Tuesdays and Thursdays, while High School (HS) teams train and compete on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Our combined MS and HS teams train on different days to suit the needs of the students. Students are asked to commit to all practices, games and tournaments when signing up / trying out for a team.
Students who sign up for the athletics programme are given a short sleeve and a long sleeve training shirt and team uniforms to use as needed. Also, those selected to represent the school at CEESA tournaments are given their own tracksuit with name and national flag on it.
Students with 100% attendance at training receive PSI Panthers gifts for each season.
For CEESA tournaments, the cost of the flight is paid by the parents. As per CEESA regulations, students are housed with families from the host school for the duration of the tournament, which allows great friendships to be made.
