Sports and Teams

We aim to provide as many students as possible with the opportunity to participate in the sport of their choosing. 

 

At Bay, we have athletes who want to explore and try new sports, and athletes who earn all-league team honors and go on to play in college. In its relatively short history, Bay has brought home over 30 league and NCS championships and won its first CIF State Championship in the fall of 2023 for cross country. We are affiliated with the California Interscholastic Federation North Coast Section (NCS) and the Bay Counties League (BCL). Bay fields girls', boys', and coed teams at the intramural, junior varsity, and varsity levels, depending on the sport and popularity year to year. Our student-athletes must commit to showing up to every practice and game/match/meet with the appropriate athletic attire and a positive attitude.

Focusing on commitment and guided by The Bay School precepts, our athletic culture promotes a safe, kind, and respectful environment — a place where we can make mistakes, learn from them, and grow. The fun takes place in the process: on the field, court, track, course; in vans and busses traveling to and from games and practices; spending time with peers working together toward a common goal; and facing the physical, emotional, and social ups and downs that are inevitable in sports and in life. 

Bay School Requirements

Bay students are required to complete six terms of athletics or activity credit over four years. Most students fulfill this requirement in their first three years, although some take until 12th grade to complete all credits.

Team Sports

Varsity and junior varsity team sports take place five days a week, Monday through Friday, and last 1.5 to 2 hours. Intramural team sports take place three days a week. Students must commit to attending any and all practices and games.
