WABX is the Western Academy of Beijing's co-curricular activities program. If it’s arts, athletics, a student club or activity that is happening outside the classroom, it's a WABX activity.

Throughout the year, WABX offers more than 300 club, language, and service options, as well as over 100 sporting options. WABX is the facilitator for sports tournaments, arts festivals, and special events.

Supportive, Competitive, & Passionate 

We welcome competitive, passionate players as well as those who would like to experience a new sport. The WABX program seeks to provide a supportive environment where each individual can develop.

The Western Academy of Beijing offers students from Senior Grade 1 to Grade 12 opportunities to participate in 16 different competitive sports. With an emphasis on sportsmanship, each student-athlete is challenged to learn and develop new skills, embrace the value of working together to achieve common goals, and become empowered to stretch their boundaries and self-expectations. Our alumni athletes have gone on to join prestigious sports colleges and universities like NYU, McGill, and Brown. 

WAB has an extensive sports exchange program with other international schools located locally, within China, and beyond. 

As a member of the Asia Pacific Activities Conference (APAC), the Association of Chinese and Mongolian International Schools (ACAMIS), and of the International Schools Activities Conference – Beijing / Tianjin (ISAC), WAB students regularly enjoy opportunities to compete in a broad and balanced inter-school athletic program that is an integral part of their educational experience.
