No-Cut Policy
Beginning in 4th Grade, students can join a professionally coached, no-cup sports team, building both athletic skills and sportsmanship. During PE, students are introduced to four or five sports at the beginning of three sports season. After spending a few days at the start of each season trying the four or five options, students then select one of the sports and join that athletic “team” for the remaining season.
No experience is necessary for any particular sport, but rather a willing mind and positive attitude. Sierra Canyon has a no-cut policy through 12th Grade, and all who would like to join and play for a team are encouraged to do so!
Athletic Teams
Practices occur three times a week during scheduled PE times, enabling students to balance homework, family time, and other extracurricular activities. Most sports will compete inter-scholastically against other private schools (basketball, swimming, volleyball, soccer, flag football), while others, like tennis and lacrosse, will be intramural-style games after school. We design the seasons to be short so as not to overlap, allowing all students to maximize their potential by trying new things.
