a passion for achievement

  Sports Programme

 Welcome to ACS Egham, the home of the Jaguars, where we offer an energetic and diverse sports programme. Officially our three-season year embraces 11 sports (see chart). We aim ‘to promote and teach the values associated with healthy living, encouraging a lifelong enjoyment of physical activity’, thereby making a major contribution to the overall education of our students.

We pride ourselves on the high level of student involvement in sports, and believe that participation in purposeful, competitive interscholastic athletics will help our students lead full and valuable adult lives. Our competitive edge is balanced by a commitment to a ‘student first, winning second’ principle, and our enthusiastic and experienced coaches encourage everybody to take part. In the Middle School every student has the chance to play on a team, regardless of their ability or experience.

In the Lower School our clubs programme, comprising soccer, gymnastics, tennis, and track & field, is complemented by the Woodlee Youth Sports Programme (WYSP). This programme takes place on Saturday mornings, when there is coaching in a variety of sports including soccer, gymnastics, tennis, basketball, hockey, and cubs (multi-sports activities to develop co-ordination and confidence for young children).

 Over the years we have been invited to play in various international tournaments, such as volleyball and soccer in Amsterdam, basketball in Rotterdam and Antwerp, tennis in Hamburg, and track & field in Luxembourg, where we have experienced a fair degree of success.

These overseas trips have also been cultural experiences, giving our students the opportunity to meet and forge friendships with fellow athletes from other European schools – Bonn International School (BIS), and the American International School of Rotterdam (AISR), to name but two. We also play other schools in the London area, and participate in local tournaments.

If your child joins ACS Egham, we hope that he or she will become an integral part of the school’s sporting life, not only gaining valuable athletic experience, but also building strong friendships along the way.
