Your child's continued participation in sport will encourage social interaction, routine, discipline and behaviour as well as resilience and competition.
Games includes our mass participation sports in teams by terms where boys play rugby, hockey and cricket and girls play hockey, netball and cricket. Children will play competitive fixtures from Year 3 against local schools and clubs.
We enter regional and national competitions with the Independent Association of Prep Schools (IAPS) as well as other governing body competitions with the RFU, ECB and England Netball. We also host our own age group festivals with over 2,500 students from 20+ primary and prep schools visiting Stamford for festivals in hockey, netball, rugby and cricket.
Our P.E. time is focused on functional and fundamental movement with fun being the key in both. This includes gymnastics, dance, balance and co-ordination activities for physical literacy through sport which complements fitness, flexibility, speed and agility and endurance. The breadth of our offering further supports the opportunity for students to find their passion for different sports at all levels.
Our breadth of offering means there is something for everyone no matter what they enjoy. Our sports provision is split into games, P.E. and co-curricular activities.
From basketball, fencing, swimming to tennis and badminton plus all major sports. We are able to offer external coaches too, including Peterborough United Football Club and R2R Tennis.
Pupils also have access to facilities at the Senior School, including additional sports pitches and 25m swimming pool.
Through unrivalled facilities and excellent teaching and coaching, we offer your child numerous opportunities to compete and participate in an array of activities.
