The Country School offers an interscholastic team sports program for grades sixth through eighth. The prime goal of our athletic program is to promote physical fitness and skill learning while providing students the opportunity to develop positive attitudes through a supportive, well-balanced team experience. We also emphasize goal setting and achievement, responsibility, strong sportsmanship, participation, commitment, and fun!
In the fall, boys and girls play soccer, and girls play field hockey. In the winter, both boys and girls play basketball, while in the spring they both play lacrosse.
Our teams are participatory in nature and every child who wants to play on a team may do so. In addition, each athlete plays some part of each game. During most seasons we offer varsity as well as junior varsity teams so that each student can be assigned to a team that is most suitable to his or her skill level.
“Thanks for getting me interested in lacrosse and confident enough with my abilities to try out and make it on the varsity team in my freshman year at college. I’m now a captain of the team playing offense.”
