Athletics

Athletics have long been an important part of daily life for Lower School boys. It is one of the fundamental ways in which we honour our mission and values. We offer a full co-curricular athletic program that provides an opportunity for any boy, who is passionate and dedicated, to participate. Each school term, teams are formed that compete in leagues and competitions against other independent schools. The program also recognizes the friendships that can be generated through sport and fosters these developments with several trip opportunities that focus on sportsmanship and traditional rivalries.

Through practices and games students are challenged to be at their best physically, emotionally and mentally. Coaches encourage athletes to model the qualities reflected by the school’s mission, Men of Character from Boys of Promise, through their focus on good sportsmanship. Students on inter-school teams compete with other independent schools in the Conference of Independent Schools Athletic Association (CISAA) which also promotes sportsmanship as a key goal.

Students work hard to be selected for school teams and the opportunity to represent the school. We are very proud to provide at least six possible interscholastic teams each term. Team members are proud to play for the school and compete with great heart when donning the green and white. Crescent has enjoyed tremendous success at many levels in team sports. The school enjoys regular success both in CISAA competition and at national tournaments.
