Abingdon Prep offers children a full and diverse range of sport and activities to suit all abilities and interests. Sport is carefully tailored to each age group and is very much focused on enjoyment and integrating activity as part of health and wellbeing.

Talented staff provide coaching and encouragement at all levels and children frequently reach very high standards, representing clubs, county and regional squads in a wide range of sport. External coaches with specialist skills complement the School’s staff, offering additional support and expertise.

The School is set in extensive grounds with acres of sports pitches for cricket, rugby, football and cross-country as well as a multi-activity sports hall, cricket nets and an indoor heated swimming pool.
