KISRA
대한국제학교조정협회
Korea International School Rowing Association (KISRA) is the first rowing association for students attending international schools located in South Korea, where no Varsity Rowing or Crew as a purely amateur team had existed until 2022 when the pandemic crisis of COVID-19 finally ended. Established with educational missions to promote the values of sportsmanship, resilience, and camaraderie through the genuine spirit of erg-sport Rowing, KISRA, as a dynamic and passionate sports community, is dedicated to the pursuit of not only excellence in the sport of rowing but also a brilliant balance between athletics and academics. KISRA is committed to providing a fundamental platform for students to explore and develop their rowing skills in a supportive and engaging environment.
Mission Statement
KISRA strives to create a humanitarian and inclusive space where students of all ethnicities, nationalities, and skill levels can come together to learn, grow, and compete at both domestic and international levels while elevating the spirit of sport and protecting the water environment for a pure philanthropic goal.
KISRA는 국제학교학생들을 대상으로한 대한민국 최초의 조정협회입니다. 근대올림픽 1회 종목인 조정을 통해 학생들이 포기하지 않는 근성과 끈끈한 동료애의 가치를 배우고 이를 토대로 글로벌인재로 성장 시키고자 설립된 협회입니다.
KISRA는 조정의 우수한 기술만 습득할 뿐만 아니라 운동과 학문 사이의 조화와 균형을 매우 중요하게 다루고 있습니다. 해외대학 진학을 앞둔 학생들이 자신의 기량을 키우고 탐구하며 스스로 성장할 수 있는 기회를 제공하고자 합니다.
KISRA의 훌륭한 코치진과 지도자들은 학생들간의 배움과 성장, 그리고 세계의 인재들과 경쟁을 통해 진정한 글로벌 인재양성 교육플랫폼을 만들기 위해 노력합니다.
