A Close-Knit Sports Experience
Christchurch School has a strong athletic department made of thirty sports teams and co-curricular offerings. Thanks to our school’s close-knit community, we’re proud to give players a great competitive advantage on the field or court — and have seen 25 state athletic championships since 2010.
About 80% of our faculty members live on campus, so they not only see students at practice, but also in the classroom, at the dining hall, and amid daily dorm life. In addition, we have
our Strength and Fitness Program made for athletes, in which we promote a healthy lifestyle and encourage confidence in a comprehensive weight training program. Players learn proper recovery habits; the importance of stretching; the basics of nutrition/hydration; and how to increase range of motion, muscle contractions, and isometric muscle movements — all of which contribute to a healthier, more sustainable athletic experience.
