Welcome From the Athletic Director
The Prem Panthers Athletics program is committed to providing students with opportunities to participate in a variety of sports in a positive and rewarding environment. We strongly believe that participation in sports can have a significant impact on developing positive habits and character traits which directly translate into academic success and prepare students to become responsible and compassionate members of society and future leaders.
Our teams compete in the Chiang Mai Athletics Conference (CMAC) and regularly travel throughout the region to attend invitational tournaments and events. A dedicated coaching staff, in addition to wonderful sports facilities, allow our students to strive for excellence, improve their skills and overall fitness levels, learn how to be part of an effective team and increase their understanding of the sport.
We are all very proud of our student-athletes and view sports as a vital part of our school’s community. Go Panthers!
