Sport

Dilworth School maintains a proud tradition of actively involving every student in school sport. The School encourages participation in extra-curricular sporting activities, offering sports from Athletics to Wrestling.

Participation in sport enables students to experience the benefits offered by being involved in competition, while building a strong school spirit. Involvement of both staff and students brings positive benefits to the classroom, boarding house and other teaching/learning environments.

The aims are to foster active participation and social interaction, to provide opportunities to improve personal and leadership skills  and to develop a sense of fair play.

The success of sport at Dilworth relies on volunteers working behind the scenes, to promote both individuals and teams. Each sport relies on the support of staff, parents, caregivers and senior students taking a variety of roles,  such as coaches and managers. The School is grateful to those who can support in some way and warmly invites anyone interested in being a coach, manager or volunteer, to please contact the Sports Department, for further information.

We encourage students, parents and caregivers to keep us updated about all individual sporting achievements outside of the School.

For further information, please contact the Sports Department.
