Welcome to the Athletics pages of the Portsmouth Abbey School Website. For Portsmouth Abbey School student-athletes, the rewards of athletic participation are immediate and enduring. Our co-curricular athletic program provides a balance to the academic and spiritual life on campus and helps to promote a sense of community.

Athletic participation plays an integral role in the development of Portsmouth Abbey students. Athletic participation offers unique learning opportunities that complement the cognitive, spiritual, social and emotional growth that students experience in other areas of school life.

Our diverse athletic offerings provide boys and girls with equal athletic opportunities in a variety of team and individual sports. We offer 24 varsity teams and 40 athletic teams. The younger and less experienced athlete has an opportunity to compete against equitable competition, as does the varsity athlete. Although wins and losses are important we recognize that athletics are educational and provide each student with an opportunity to develop his or her whole self.

Competition is an important part of our athletic program and all of our athletes and coaches are striving for improvement and to win. But here you will find more emphasis on learning - learning about yourself, about your sport, and about working together.
