Sport
Your son doesn’t have to be an elite sportsman to get the most out of the sporting opportunities at Claires Court.
Many of our boys will tell you they weren’t very enthusiastic about PE and sport when they joined, but the chance just to be involved and be recognised for their best, has given them the confidence and belief that will lead to a lifelong participation in sport.
SPORTS ON OFFER
The wide range of sports on offer through the curriculum, clubs and activities, ensures boys have a good understanding of what it means to lead a healthy and active lifestyle. Sport at Claires Court will not only develop your son’s physical competencies in a broad range of activities but bring through the personal qualities of commitment, fairness, teamwork and enthusiasm. Our PE, Games and extracurricular programme includes:
- Athletics
- Badminton
- Cricket
- Football
- Hockey
- Rowing
- Rugby
- Sailing
- Swimming
- Tennis
TEAM HONOURS FOR ALL
Our dedicated and specialist teaching staff ensure every boy is given the chance to be part of our competitive teams. We celebrate success and achievement across all abilities at local, regional and national level. Those gifted players and athletes are supported to pursue their chosen sport to high levels of performance. For instance our rowers are amongst the top in the country, in past seasons we've had three international rowers and two golds at the British Rowing Championships, and that’s probably due to our two international coaches putting the boys through their paces twice a day, six days a week!
FACILITIES
Senior Boys have access to top class facilities for training and playing rugby, football, cricket and hockey through our partnership agreements with local sports clubs which are just a short drive away. Our water sports also have dedicated facilities with our own lake access for sailing and shared riverside clubhouse for rowing.
