Athletics at AESS

The school offers an opportunity to participate in the extra-curricular teams in field hockey, soccer, swimming, basketball, volleyball, golf, and track and field. Every student is invited to try out for any of the teams.

Our athletic teams are called the Eagles (Girls Team) and Chieftains (Boys Team). A.E.S.S. has an excellent athletic program, both in terms of the number of students who participate and the success achieved by our teams. We have established an enviable reputation provincially, and are grateful to our coaches who give their time and talent so generously, for our student athletes.

AESS is a member of BC High School Sports and operates in accordance with their governing regulations.

Students are reminded that while they are members of a school team, they are ambassadors of the school and must dress and act accordingly. Students will abide by our "Student Athlete Code of Conduct". Students and coaches must try to maintain a high level of sportsmanship in all activities. All School regulations apply to any out-of-town trips. Participants who do not maintain satisfactory marks, attitudes or behaviour, may lose the privilege of participating.

WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO SUPPORT YOUR SCHOOL TEAMS BY CHEERING ON THE EAGLES AND CHIEFTAINS. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE DO THIS IN A SPORTSMANLIKE FASHION. RESPECT MUST BE SHOWN TO THE OPPOSING TEAMS AND THE OFFICIALS AT ALL TIMES.

If you have any questions or concerns about the athletics department please contact our Athletics Director - Mrs. D. Fitzsimmons (denise.fitzsimmons@sd78.bc.ca).
