ASEAN School Games

ASEAN School Games (ASG) is the annual games for ASEAN schools. The ASEAN Schools Sports Council (ASSC) is an apolitical regional sports organisation that promotes sports amongst member countries. The ASEAN Schools Games (ASG) is organised under the auspices of the ASSC and prior to 2009, the games were played based on satellite, single sports events. This was revamped in 2009 where a games format was adopted. The 1st ASG planned under the new games format was organised by Thailand in 2009, while the 2nd ASG was organised by Malaysia in 2010. The 3rd ASG in 2011 will be organised by Singapore from 1 to 7 July 2011.^{[1] [2] [3]}
