  • Athletics

    Athletics

    Welcome to kisêwâtisiwin athletics! 

    Here at kisêwâtisiwin, we offer a wide variety of opportunities for students to engage in athletics. We value sport and the many life skills and lessons it affords students as they grow and progress through their time here at our school. Students engaged in school sport and activities are able to develop and hone their leadership skills as they are mentored by the coaching staff, and further take these skills into the community through athletic leadership with our feeder schools. In addition, collaboration, fair play and teamwork are valued as students interact with their peers. 

    The Wolves value individual athletes who are prepared to work hard, have fun, and represent our school to the best of their ability.  Student athletes are given the venue to demonstrate their abilities and build character as they have experiences on our junior and senior teams. 

    From outdoor soccer in the fall, to track and field in the spring, there are so many ways to get involved in Wolves athletics. kisêwâtisiwin  hosts the Wolves Invitational Basketball Tournament, and competes in tournaments and competitions throughout the year in a variety of sports such as volleyball, basketball, badminton, soccer, slow pitch, handball, curling, and more. 

    In honor of our student athletes, we wrap up the year with an athletics banquet, where coaches, parents and students are able to celebrate the accomplishments and growth of all of our kisêwâtisiwin athletes. 

    We welcome all students interested in athletics and hope you enjoy your journey here at kisêwâtisiwin!
