Athletics at SACS places emphasis on excellence and involvement. We are able to provide superb facilities and cater for a large number of disciplines including:
Sprinting
Middle distance
Long jump
High jump
Shotput
Javelin
Discus
This is in conjunction with superb gym facilities provides the aspiring athlete with the perfect opportunity to hone their craft. The athletes are also ably supported by Mr Owusu-Sekyere and his team of superb coaches, many sourced from outside the school with excellent coaching pedigrees, who ensure all the athletes are primed for competition.
Practice days are on a Monday and a Thursday to allow for both seniors and juniors to make the training sessions. The boys compete in a variety of events in the first quarter of the year and again in the last. The first term season culminates in the prestigious Quadrangular event and is buffeted by multiple Spring events in the fourth term. All the athletes also have the opportunity of competing at Western Province trials and competitions and their colours and achievements are acknowledged and rewarded in the school environment (scrolls and colours).
