Athletics

Northfield School believes that physical exercise promotes concentration as well as intellectual exercise, so we offer opportunities throughout the year for students to participate in competitive games. Northfield supports autumn sports teams in Cross Country and Girls Volleyball. Winter sports include Boys Basketball and Girls Basketball, and in the spring, we have Track and Boys Tennis. We believe it is more important to play than it is to win, so we play hard and we have fun.

Head Coach Jason Fair oversees the schedules of the athletic teams; he also coaches High School Varsity Boys Basketball and Track. David Burchfield coaches Junior High Boys Basketball. Ken Spurgeon coaches Cross Country and High School Varsity Girls Basketball. Sarah Jernigan coaches Junior High Girls Basketball, while Chas Thompson coaches the Girls Volleyball teams. Rocky Trammell coaches tennis.

All game days can be found on our calendar; any changes in schedules will be noted by Ken Larson in an email message sent to all students and faculty.
