Based on the available results from the EAC, MESAC and NESAC leagues, together with the range of sports on offer, there is little doubt that the American School of Dubai comes out in front in most sports, most of the time. With a much smaller number of US and full IB curriculum schools to select from, we believe that each of the other schools named offer a typical US school Athletics environment, with each school committed to grow its competitive sports.
