Athletics
At The Country Day School, we have a balanced approach to athletics. While sports participation is not mandatory, it is highly encouraged with 48 teams across 24 sports to choose from. Junior and Middle School students often try their hand at several different sports before discovering one or two to pursue in Senior School.
Athletics are considered an integral part of the School's program of education. While we advocate fitness for life, other long-lasting values are established through team sports; chief among them: self-confidence, discipline, grit, sportsmanship and integrity. Our athletic philosophy and curriculum provide experiences that will help students emotionally, mentally, socially and physically.
Our program develops in every athlete the necessary skills to be successful - not only in sports, but also in life.
"CDS athletes play with pride, sportsmanship, a positive attitude and respect for the game, our opponents and officials," says CDS Director of Athletics, Geneva Winterink. "Win or lose, our athletes approach each term of sport for the love of the game and camaraderie with their teammates.”

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.
