Sports

At Abbey College Cambridge we actively encourage all our students to participate in sports to help their physical development and improve their ability to concentrate and work hard in class.

Our Head of Physical Education Philip White organises a wide range of sports from Basketball and Football to Table Tennis and even Chess. We also provide our students access to more unique sports such as Horse Riding, Golf and Martial Arts. We have a dance club and annual college sports day.

We aim to create a healthy community for our students to learn and socialise in, and college sports are a very important part of this.

To compliment the excellent sports provision available at Abbey College Cambridge, branded Sports Kit is available to purchase via Playerlayer and can be viewed by clicking here.

Compulsory School Age (under 16 years old) students are required to purchase a selection of this kit to wear during their PE lessons. This is the only sportswear that will be allowed to be worn during PE lessons. All other students can purchase the new Sports kit range to wear at their leisure and during sporting extra-curricular activities.

We encourage our students to start their own sports clubs and societies. If you are passionate about a particular sport that we don’t currently offer, tell us. We will help you to set up a club for it and get other students involved.

Sports clubs are part of our extra-curricular activity programme.
