At HSDC we offer as many active opportunities as we can. We look to engage with all students who are involved in individual sports outside of the College, to encourage and support them to compete and represent the College. We utilise our links with AoC Sport and other local Colleges to facilitate these opportunities. We also understand that training schedules for our high performing athletes can be busy, so we look to support you both inside and outside of the classroom.
During the summer term we offer you the chance to compete in the Hampshire competitions. We were county runners up in 2013. In 2016/17 we had over 30 athletes attending these events and a number of our athletes competed at the Hampshire Schools Athletics Championships, including one who competed internationally.
