GO GRIFFINS!
With 29 teams across 7 sports, there's something for everyone at every grade level.

Garden School’s athletics program fosters an environment of hard work, responsibility, sportsmanship, and growth. Student-athletes begin learning team sports in physical education and 4th, 5th, and 6th grade intramurals to prepare them for middle school, JV, and varsity athletics. Griffins are taught to grow as a team to improve their leadership, communication, and accountability. We offer 21 Varsity, JV, and MS Athletic Teams and 8 Intramural teams. There is a no-cut policy for all our teams.

Garden School is a long-standing Independent School Athletic League (I.S.A.L.) member, competing against other NYSAIS schools across New York City. Our teams’ non-league schedules are filled with schools from other NYSAIS leagues, the CHSAA, PSAL, and NYSPHSAA. We believe in giving our kids as many opportunities as possible to enhance their experience.

Any student who wishes to compete for Garden must complete the Athletic Registration Form and Athletics Participation Agreement, which can be found under Forms on your Garden School Blackbaud account. You also must submit your Athletics Health History Form and a copy of your physical (good for 1 calendar year) to nurse Elena at esokolova@gardenschool.org.

Inquiries regarding any of Garden School’s Athletic Programs should be directed to the Director of Athletics, Brendan O’Shea, by email at boshea@gardenschool.org or by phone at (718) 335-6363.
