Sport at d’Overbroeck’s is very inclusive, aiming to cater for as many interests and ability levels as possible. We have a dedicated team of enthusiastic teachers and professional coaches to help our students nurture an existing talent or find their sporting passion.
Whilst it is very important to us that students get the opportunity to compete and represent the school, it is equally as important that they develop lifelong learning around active, healthy lifestyles.
This is what underpins our programme. So whether it be from Aerial Silks to Football or from Ice Skating to Netball we hope students will find a physical activity that they can thrive in, and enjoy.
The team sports that we compete against other schools in include:
Outside of team sports, we also compete in:
In most cases these sports are offered for at least two terms a year, with weekly training and matches against other local independent and/or state schools, both in friendly and league formats.
d’Overbroeck’s is ideally situated to take advantage of many excellent sports facilities either walking distance or a short drive from the school. For those venues requiring transportation school minibus and/or coaches are provided.
The d’Overbroeck’s Tennis Academy is a dedicated programme designed to support excellent tennis players who wish to develop their tennis career alongside studying their A-Levels and getting all the benefits of a d’Overbroeck’s education. You will receive individual coaching throughout the year from coaches at our programme partner, the North Oxford Tennis Club.
With a choice of 36 A-level subjects, an extensive academic enrichment programme, and the best pastoral care, our Sixth Form sets students up for the brightest of futures.
