Winter Athletics Season Recap
By Geneva Winterink
CDS enjoyed an outstanding winter athletics season marked by commitment, resilience, and competitive success. Winter is our longest athletic term, and teams trained and competed tirelessly, with some playing up to nine games over the course of the season. Athletes and coaches remained locked in, dedicating their time and energy to a shared goal: to be the best we can be.
That dedication paid off. Numerous teams across both the Middle and Senior School advanced to Final Four competition and earned CISAA medals. Inspired by the Olympics, here is our winter medal count.
- The U13 Boys Basketball Team, coached by Ms. Winterink and Mr. Bell, captured the D1B championship while playing up a division from D2.
- The U13 Girls Volleyball Team, coached by Mme Carlson and Ms. Purdy, finished first in D2 after entering the playoffs as the 4th seed.
- The Junior Boys Basketball Team, coached by Mr. Young and Mr. Saklica led the season from the start and capped it off with a gold medal performance.
- The U14 Girls Volleyball Team, coached by Mrs. Inglis and Ms. Witten, battled all season and earned a silver medal.
- The Senior Girls Hockey Team, coached by Ms. Leacock and Mr. Sargeant, led the league standings and finished second overall.
- The Senior Boys Basketball Team also secured silver after a strong playoff run and season coached by Mr. Milonas and Mr. Brasz.
- The Junior Girls Volleyball Team, coached by Mr. Collins and Mrs. Knight, advanced to the finals and earned silver.
- The U14 Coed Hockey Team won the bronze medal game with a determined and admirable effort.
Total Medal Count:
- Gold: 3
- Silver: 4
- Bronze: 1
We look forward to the spring season with excitement, eager to build on this momentum and continue adding to our medal count and championship banners.

Land Acknowledgment
The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
