Bay Ridge Prep Athletics

Athletics at Bay Ridge Prep plays an important part in carrying out the school's mission of enriching the whole student.  We work to nurture the emotional intelligence of each child by maintaining a student-centered athletic program that values and supports the unique talents and learning styles of the individual.

Through a variety of sports and exercise, we seek to recognize strengths in students that may be under-utilized or unnoticed inside the classroom. These strengths, with proper guidance and coaching, are used to help student-athletes develop self-awareness, self-possession, and social responsibility.

While student-athletes often spend much of their time on their sport of choice, we always remember that they are students first and athletes second.  To that end, student-athletes at Bay Ridge Prep are expected to be model citizens of the school community with a strong academic record and, of equal importance, be a positive influence and role model for other students both on and off the court.

Winning is, of course, the ultimate goal for any team. The ultimate goal of athletics at Bay Ridge Prep, however, is that the students walk away from each game knowing that they tried their best and positively contributed to the spirit of the entire school community.
