Our school Leman international school in Chengdu, Sichuan in in ACAMIS silver division. ACAMIS is a competition with some other international schools in china to improve the skills and sportsmanship between each other. Jack, Josh, King, Victor, Alic, Ian, Taewoong, Henry, Cole and me from Grade 8-10 who play soccer went to Shanghai, Pudong from Chengdu, Sichuan to participate ACAMIS soccer on April 23th to April 26th.
When we got to the Airport in Shanghai, Pudong we went straight to YCIS which was the school who hosted us. On our first day we had one game and we lost this game. When we finished our game we went back to our hotel for a refreshing shower and my roommate was Taewoong. When we finished our shower we went out for dinner. We also divided into 3 groups and I was with Henry and Taewoong. We went straight to MacDonald’s to eat because most of us were extremely hungry. When we finished our satisfying dinner we went to Carrefour for food supplies and we finished our dinner quite fast.
On Our second day, we had three games. Our first game was a school call Ningbo and we thought they were a piece of cake but when they were in the game they were amazingly well skilled and they beat us so easily. Other games were also like this they beat us so easily. On this day Cole made a goal but Victor kicked the ball into our goalpost. We went out for our dinner with same members. We had Burger King for our dinner but our plan was to buy a box of chicken for our night food but we were all full so we gave up.
Next day we had only one game so we decided to be more active to make a goal but the other team was so good that we didn’t make it. We also went to dinner with all the ACAMIS team. Dinner was delicious and Jack got the MVP medal in our team. Next day was the last day in Shanghai, we woke up at 6o’clock and waited until 9o’clock to eat breakfast and then we went straight to Pudong Airport to go back to Chengdu.
Although, we lost all games, we still experienced some sportsmanship.
