Tormead has an excellent reputation for sport and our teams regularly achieve success at local, county, regional and national level. Gymnastics, hockey, netball, swimming and biathlon are particular strengths. On-site facilities including floodlit netball courts and the modern gymnasium and sports hall are supplemented by the use of nearby off-site facilities such as the swimming pool complex and athletics stadium at Spectrum, and local all weather hockey pitches. The School recognises the value of taking teams overseas to widen their competitive and cultural experiences. Gymnasts and hockey players compete in annual fixtures with the British School of Brussels; the senior hockey and netball teams toured Barbados in 2002 and the hockey teams returned for a second visit in 2006.

The School operates a ‘sport for all’ approach to extracurricular sport, where development squads are run in tandem with competition squads to ensure that every girl has access to expert coaching, and fixtures are organised for ‘C’ and ‘D’ teams wherever possible. Sport and physical exercise remain part of the curriculum throughout the School but, from age 15 onwards, girls may choose from an increasingly wide range of options including ice skating, rugby and rock climbing.
