Daily Telegraph School Sport Matters Awards 2008,
‘Independent School of the Year’
Repton has a long tradition of sporting excellence. England football internationals, Test Match cricketers, Olympians, and Wimbledon finalists are all among many fine sportsmen and women who have passed under The Arch. Repton is passionately committed as ever to maximising pupils' potential in whatever level they play and fostering sporting excellence. Both of which would not be possible without our superb facilities and expert coaching.
In recent years, a number of Regional and National titles have been achieved across a number of sports. In recognition of our great achievements and commitment to sport, we were awarded the title of Independent School of the Year in the prestigious Daily Telegraph School Sport Matters Awards 2008, held at Twickenham Stadium.
As well as the importance placed on the major games of each term, in which we both strive for and achieve National success, it is equally important to provide a wide range of different sporting opportunities for all our pupils, whatever their standard. We actively encourage pupils to participate at the best level they can and aim to equip every Reptonian with confidence and enthusiasm to enjoy sport and an active lifestyle both in school and beyond.
On top of the Inter School Programme, the Inter-House sport is fiercely competitive and gives all boys and girls a chance to play a form of representative sport on a regular basis. All take great pride in playing for the house!
Our major sports throughout the year are:
Michaelmas Term
Football (boys)
