Athletics
St. Anne’s School of Annapolis encourages all Middle School students to participate in interscholastic sports. The goals of the athletic program are to develop athletic skills, help the student-athlete understand the importance of commitment, demonstrate an ethic of good sportsmanship and promote a life-long interest in fitness and enjoyment of competitive play.
We offer interscholastic competition in cross-country for grades five through eight and field hockey, soccer, basketball, lacrosse and tennis for grades six through eight.
There are no cuts within the St. Anne’s School Stars’ sports program and 97% of our middle school students participate in team and individual competition. Try-outs for some sports determine whether an athlete will be placed on an A or B team. These designations are made in accordance with individual’s grade level, ability, and size and are in line with the Independent School Athletic Association. Team placement using these criteria makes competition more equitable for competitive teams.
We ask parents to discuss team membership with their child. It is our expectation that students who come out for a sport understand the commitment they are making to the team and truly have a desire to play.
