Sports Opportunities

136

You will continue a rich and varied sporting tradition at St Andrew’s. From Years 4 to 12 you will participate in a sport and/or cultural activity each week, throughout the summer and winter terms. You will have the opportunity to attend inter-school competitions at local, regional, national and perhaps even international level.  Many of our top teams in targeted sports achieve outstanding success in regular national competitions. Our much-anticipated annual athletics, swimming and cross-country events will also be on your agenda.

A feature of our co-curriculum is the extraordinary variety of sports available to you.

Preparatory School

Sport is compulsory in Years 4 to 8 of the Preparatory School, as is participation in our annual athletics, swimming, cross-country and duathlon events. Sports offered include cricket, touch, soccer, rugby, netball, basketball, hockey, tennis and water polo.

Secondary School

In the Secondary School, a choice of over 30 sports is offered, ranging from “target” sports such as rugby, netball, hockey and rowing, to lesser-known activities like target shooting, yachting and multisport. Our programme is certain to feature a sport that fits your talents and interests. You can download a copy of our latest Sports and Activities booklet, using the link on the left, to view the full range of opportunities open to you.
