 | | Athletics | The mission of Middle School Athletics is to promote the development of athletic skills, social growth and personal health in the pursuit of excellence. |
Goals of the program include: promoting health and physical awarenes, through the learning of value of teamwork, cooperation, competing fairly, commitment and treating others with respect and kindness, and to give our students the necessary experience and confidence to continue to pursue sports as a lifelong experience.
Physical activity during the day provides a needed break and supports the development of collaboration and community. Middle School students are encouraged to be active during their lunch hour through participation in an intramural programme. Activities include basketball, volleyball and floor hockey, to name a few. Student initiatives to further develop our intramural programme are welcomed. |
Middle School Athletic Teams for 2012-13 include: Badminton During the past 20 years, The York School has put forth a strong effort in badminton. Although a small group, our players are skilled and passionate.
We offer U13, U14 badminton in the winter.
Our teams compete in the CISAA league and final tournament. |
|
 Basketball The York School has a long and remarkable history in both Boys and Girls basketball.
Banner years were 2000 (U13 Boys), 2001 (U14 Girls), 2002 (U15 Boys), 2003 (Sr. Girls), 2005 & 2009 (Jr. Boys) and 2008 & 2009 (U14 Boys and U14 Girls). 2010 saw our U14 Girls capture a third consecutive crown (three-peat) and our Senior Boys won their first ever gold in Division 2.
The Junior and Senior Boys' and the U14 Girls teams have also made tournament appearances and the U13 Boys have participated in the CAIS nationals. |
|
 Cross Country For more than a decade, The York School has participated in the CISAA at the U14, Midget, Junior and Senior levels. Over this period, several York students have qualified for the high school provincial championships. We currently train at the many beautiful city parks and ravines encircling our midtown campus.
While we have many students who are interested in competitive running, many of our students also use cross-country running as a means to improve their basic fitness.
The self-discipline developed through training can help improve overall performance. We invite any student who wishes to train with the team to do so, and encourage students to work with training buddies as a means of support and camaraderie. |
|
 Soccer Traditionally, we have had two teams at the Middle and Senior School levels; a boys team in the fall and a girls team in the spring.
Our teams have won two CISSA championships for the school – Boys U14 (2004) and Junior Boys (2006).
In 2007 & 2008, we engaged the services of the University of Toronto’s women's soccer to aid the overall girls' programme.
Likewise, in the fall of the same year, we used Power Soccer coaching and clinics to aid the development of our boys' programme. |
|
 Volleyball Our U12, U13 and U14 teams are gaining experience while competing against other CISAA teams, with the boys competing in the fall and the girls competing in the winter.
Our teams are competitive at both the Junior and Senior level, having made numerous playoff appearances.
In 2009, our U12 Girls team captured our first-ever gold medal. |
