Athletics

At Elmwood, we believe that competitive sports help our students develop into determined, well rounded global citizens and teach them the grit and determination that gives them the stamina to see things through. We also believe that every girl can find an activity she can become passionate about.

Elmwood is a place where the beginner can dip her toe and try new sports or national competitors can develop further and receive focused academic support. The girls regularly take on new sports and quickly learn the skills needed to not only progress, but to excel in their chosen activity. In the middle school, our aim is to give the opportunity to play on a competitive team for whichever sport they choose.

Students are encouraged to have a spirit of adventure and not be afraid to give new sports a try. With over 20 sports to choose from spread across the curriculum and the activities programme, Elmwood provides the coaching and facilities to keep every student healthy and fit and create the opportunities to further their potential.

Throughout their school career every student will have opportunities to represent the school in our various sports teams. Regardless of breadth of choices and opportunities at the core of everything we do is a passion to develop a love of sport and to become a lifelong athlete and participant.
