At Brentwood, we create an inclusive and fun environment for our athletes. We want each student to have a great experience. The joy of athletic accomplishment experienced in a safe and inclusive setting is a key foundation of our philosophy.

We strongly believe in the power of athletics to challenge our students and help them develop empathy, respect, and resilience.

In particular, our team sports create a lifelong commitment to giving your fullest effort, cultivating comradery, and deeply respecting and contributing actively to teamwork. Brentwood alumni often mention athletics among their fondest memories—often formed while travelling around the Island and the province as they participate in the high level of competition available to our programs.

We understand that some students may wish to engage in activities beyond Brentwood’s athletics and arts programs, such as equestrian, mountain biking, or other pursuits. While participation in Brentwood’s programs is expected, the School can support families in arranging these external activities during non-programmed times.

Athletic Therapy

To provide the best possible experience for our athletes, Brentwood has full-time athletic therapists on campus—supporting over 20 sports programs. Our certified athletic therapists provide field coverage and medical support for Brentwood’s competitive athletic programs, support the recovery of students with concussions, and provide clinical treatments for those students with athletics-related injuries—to help return them to their sport in a safe and timely manner.

Sport Rehabilitation

At Brentwood, an injury does not put athletic activity out of reach for our students. Injured students work to resume their desired sport through our rehabilitation program. The goal of this program is to help you stay active and support healing at the same time—meaning that you may participate in Strength & Conditioning sessions while working around an injury. Unique equipment, like our anti-gravity treadmill, helps students to make a safer and faster return to sport—maintaining their cardio fitness and bringing them that much closer to resuming their normal schedule.
