SPORTS

St Francis College offers a varied extracurricular programme. Swimming is the dominant summer sport with top-class swimming training being given at the Liquid Lines Aquatic Centre in Cape St Francis. Other summer sports include cricket, tennis, netball and chess. Matches are played against teams from neighbouring schools and are always well contested.

The school has a multi-purpose field which is ideal for the winter sports which are, predominantly,  soccer and hockey. Netball also continues during the winter term.

A feature of the extra-mural programme is the inclusion of Eco-Club and Adventure Sports to fully take advantage of the beautiful natural environment which characterizes the school campus. Canoeing is done on the dam and there is regular trail riding and trail hiking. The beach, the river and the beautiful coastline are all within easy reach for a variety of outdoor activities.
