Sport @ Gresham's Prep

We offer ample opportunity for children of all abilities to become involved in a range of sports either within our curriculum or as a part of our extracurricular programme.  Playing in a sports team helps to build confidence, a sense of healthy competition and the ability to work well with others, in addition to helping children form friendships and enjoy physical exercise.

We have built a reputation for sporting excellence over a number of years.  Our teams are normally very successful, and we have recently achieved considerable success in hockey, rugby and athletics.  Although teams are selected by merit, particular emphasis is placed on giving all children the opportunity to compete for the School.

For boys the major sports are rugby, hockey, cricket and athletics, and for girls the major sports are hockey, netball, rounders, tennis and athletics.  All children swim regularly in their physical education lessons.  Children also have the opportunity to compete for the School in shooting, swimming, golf, squash, trampolining and cross-country running, and a wide range of other sports which are available as a part of our Hobbies Programme.
