Athletics at RSGC

Student-athletes at RSGC develop discipline, dedication, and teamwork. They contribute to school spirit while building confidence and a strong sense of identity.
Athletics at RSGC are more than just competitive games. They are a cornerstone of personal growth, fostering leadership, teamwork, and lifelong connections between students and their teammates and coaches. The athletics program builds a vibrant and united school community.

Building a Culture of Participation, Character and School Spirit

Athletics at RSGC play a central role in student life, offering opportunities for students to take healthy risks, develop skills, and build lasting relationships through sport. Our program emphasizes character, resilience, and collaboration—key values that extend far beyond the playing field.
 
With 35 competitive teams across 16 sports, three-quarters of RSGC students participate on at least one team each year. While team selection becomes more competitive beginning in Grade 7, our Junior School athletics program (Grades 4–6) follows fair play guidelines that ensure meaningful participation and development for all students. Intramural and co-curricular offerings provide additional opportunities to stay active, build confidence, and experience the joy of sport at every grade level.
 
RSGC’s smaller school size offers a unique advantage: developing athletes are more likely to secure a spot on a team and benefit from personalized coaching without compromising the level of competition. Our athletes regularly achieve success at both the individual and team levels, competing with skill and sportsmanship across leagues and tournaments.

Judo at RSGC

Judo is a unique part of the RSGC experience. Led by Sensei David Miller, a full-time judo instructor and physical education teacher. RSGC has developed one of North America’s most extensive school-based judo programs.
 
Students are introduced to judo in Grade 3 as part of the Physical Education curriculum, building skills, confidence and discipline as they progress through the Junior School. In the Senior School, students can continue developing their practice through physical education, competitive athletics and dedicated judo credit courses.
 
With our on-campus dojo, students can participate in judo throughout their time at RSGC, from their first introduction to the sport to advanced training and competition.
 
Judo in Physical Education
Judo is incorporated into the Physical Education program beginning in Grade 3 and continues through Grade 9. In Grades 10, 11 and 12, students can choose judo as a full-year credit course.
 
Competitive Judo
Senior School students can take their skills to the next level as members of the RSGC Judo Team, with opportunities to train and compete during the fall and spring seasons.
 
Judo Clubs
Beyond the curriculum and competitive team, both Junior and Senior School students have opportunities to participate in judo clubs throughout the school year.


Athletic Facilities

On campus, students enjoy a bright, full-sized gymnasium for basketball, volleyball, and badminton, as well as a heated outdoor turf that serves as a hub for scrimmages, practices, and community gatherings year-round. Our downtown Toronto location provides access to exceptional athletic facilities within walking distance, allowing us to extend our program into some of the best venues in the city.
