Athletic Program
At South Kent School, athletics are part of everyday life. Every boy who spends time on the Hillside participates on a competitive athletic team at least two seasons of the year and the third season may be club or managerial participation. Each student is asked to contribute in his own way to a program designed to challenge him as well as build his self esteem and confidence.
South Kent’s interscholastic athletic schedules are very competitive. Frequently, the teams compete against schools that have twice as many boys. We have a rich tradition of hard work and fair play. South Kent boys compete with pride and remain gentlemen in victory, as well as in defeat.
The athletic program engages our students in developing teamwork by driving toward a common goal, and learning that personal sacrifice can benefit the whole. If, for documented medical reasons, a boy cannot actively participate in the School’s athletic program, he is expected to serve one of the teams in other ways such as working as a manager, student trainer, or team videographer.
