Athletics

Our Mission

The mission of the SGS Athletic Program is to promote a healthy relationship between a student and their body.

We do this by:

Building/developing sport-specific skills
Focusing on teamwork, school spirit, + healthy competition
Educating students on nutrition, health, + positive self-image

Athletics for Everyone

At SGS, we believe every student should have the opportunity to participate in sports, which is why we have a no-cut athletics program. Whether a student is trying a sport for the first time or has years of experience, everyone is welcome to join and contribute to the team. By eliminating tryouts, we focus on skill development, teamwork, and fostering a love for the game in an inclusive and supportive environment.

Jordan Oakes, SGS Alum, Class of 2013

I owe so much of my success and the way I've been able to advocate for and apply myself to my time being a student athlete at SGS

 
                                                                                

Dedicated Coaches Who Know Our Students

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
At Seattle Girls’ School, our coaching staff is unique because many of them are also teachers and staff members at the school. This creates a distinctive bond between our students and their coaches, as we’re not just present on the sidelines—we’re also in the classrooms, hallways, and school community every day.
