Girls' Sports 

Please see our Fixture list below, and follow the links on the left for Latest News and other details.

Our first ever intake of girls into our co-educational Sixth Form took place in September 2008, with around 35 girls joining each year.  A huge amount of planning and development took place to prepare for the girls, which included the building of a new boarding house and getting the staff and facilities in place to offer additional sports and activities.  A second girls' boarding house is due to open to a further 60 girls in September 2011.

The two traditional girls' sports, hockey and netball, have a term each - hockey is predominately played in the Michaelmas term, and netball in the Lent term (although we also enter an adult netball league in the Michaelmas term, so we can hit the ground running in the main tournaments after Christmas).

In addition, girls have the opportunity to take part (and compete) in the traditional Shrewsbury sports such as Rowing and Fives, as well as the more mainstream sports such as Squash, Swimming and Tennis.

Nicola Bradburne, Head of Girls' Sports, writes an overview of each term's sports.  Please see the Latest News section.
