Sport
Developing character and resilience – good for the mind, body and spirit.
Sport is an intrinsic part of student life at Berkhamsted. We believe playing and participating in sporting and team events builds our students’ confidence and character, enabling them to develop into motivated and resilient young adults.
We believe our students should strive for results as strongly on the sports field as they do in the classroom. We offer a broad range of sports, both curricular and extra-curricular. Our students also participate in numerous inter-house sporting events and competitions.
Our team and individual sports have comprehensive weekend and midweek fixture lists, with many students representing the school each week.
Our students are encouraged to participate in a broad range of sports and physical activity within a competitive and supportive environment. They are encouraged to work hard to reach their full potential, improve their performance and strive for excellence.

Lifelong participation
We encourage our students to develop a lifelong participation in sport and physical activity through their time with us at Berkhamsted.

Clearly an academically driven department, it’s refreshing to meet the Head of Sixth, Martin Walker, and hear that the students get the support and encouragement to find and follow their own path whatever that may be – from setting up their own business or doing an apprenticeship.
Partnership Update – It was our pleasure to host the @ace.programme at school in August for their week long residential training camp. Amongst the coaching staff was legendary @windiescricket fast bowler Courtney Walsh who can be seen turning his arm over in the Chesham Road nets.
The residential camp was part of our ongoing partnership which includes fixtures against ACE male and female teams and our T20 Day involving @hertscricket & @buckscricket.official
ACE is a charity which was created to arrest the decline in black British cricketers within the professional and grassroots game, and one which we are very proud to support. For more information go to @ace.programme #TeamBerko #ACE
