Sports

On our unrivalled and award winning playing fields, pupils' development and successes are built on the foundation of Monkton’s strong sporting tradition which is committed to providing an extensive sporting programme focussing upon participation as well as excellence. 

“Sport is an integral part of the curriculum at Monkton. Everyone is encouraged to try to improve, regardless of their age, current sporting ability or interest. Our aim is for the sporting experience at Monkton to help students develop valuable skills to live more enjoyable and successful adult lives.” Richard Miller, Director of Sport

We produce at least two teams in every age group in each of the School’s major sports, and many pupils find their strengths in a host of other individual and team sports on offer, which focus not only on fitness, competition and discipline, but also well-being and mental health. All pupils are challenged to become creative decision-makers, adapting to the evolving demands of each of their sports.

“Sport at Monkton has helped me to develop my confidence, communication and, most importantly, my friendships. The Sports Staff are highly encouraging and supportive, and I love that training and fixtures are now an integral part of a regular week for me.” Current pupil
