Girls Sport

It’s all action on the hockey turf
The programme for girls' sport is based around the major games of netball, hockey, athletics, tennis and rounders. Netball and hockey are taught in the Michaelmas and Lent terms, whilst the Summer term is devoted to athletics, tennis and rounders. All groups receive specialist coaching whatever their ability level and all of our girls have the opportunity to participate in competitive matches. Where appropriate girls are entered and encouraged to attend county trials or county satellite training. If a girl is already on a county training programme for example, tennis, their coaching during school hours can be accommodated.
