Halfway Through the Competition: Strong Performances and Meaningful Learning at ISF WSC Golf 2025
Jul, 17, Rabat, Morocco – The ISF World School Golf Championship 2025 has reached its halfway point, with the second round of competition concluding at the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam in Rabat. With intense performances and remarkable focus, school athletes from across four continents continued their quest for excellence.
Local players demonstrated impressive skills during the second day, In both the boys' and girls' U18 categories, Moroccan athletes are currently leading the individual rankings with a clear advantage, contributing to the host nation’s top position in the team competition ahead of Thailand and Chinese Taipei, with a narrow margin.
The girls' U15 category stands out as the only division not led by a host nation player. Thailand’s Saowanit Charoensukrungruang and Chinese Taipei’s Shuang Wu currently hold the top two spots, with three Moroccan athletes closely trailing behind.
“I am very pleased with the level of organization and the efforts of the LOC in this event. The children truly seem to be enjoying themselves", ISF Sport Director Marko Petrič shows his impression, "The team competition is highly competitive, with three teams in strong contention for the title.”
The live-scoring of the event is available for the fans of school golf.
Beyond the course, the educational mission of the ISF remains central. Through the ISF Academy’s on-site workshops, participants engaged in learning opportunities on vital themes such as safeguarding in sport, injury prevention, and anti-doping awareness.
ISF and Moroccan Anti-Doping Agency (AMAD) cooperated to organize the Anti-doping Prevention in Sport workshop of this event. One of the highlights was a practical session on anti-doping prevention delivered by Jdira Amal, AMAD educator, where athletes interacted with real testing tools and learned about the procedures involved.
This experience underscored ISF's efforts to ensure young athletes grow not only as competitors, but also as informed individuals capable of promoting clean sport.
On July 18, the competition pauses briefly before the final two rounds resume on Saturday and Sunday.
During this break, all participating school athletes, coaches, and officials will have the opportunity to explore Rabat as part of the ISF's traditional Cultural Day. The programme includes visits to some of Morocco’s most iconic historical and cultural sites, such as the Kasbah of the Udayas, Hassan Tower & Mohammed V Mausoleum, and the Chellah Necropolis—offering a deep dive into the country's rich heritage and vibrant present.
In the evening, Nations Night will bring together delegations in a colourful celebration of cultural exchange and friendship, as each team presents traditions from their home countries in a warm, festive atmosphere.
