Team sports are alive and well at Summerfield! Our after-school sports program is dedicated to the development of supportive team concepts and individual growth through exploration of physical conditioning, time management, application of skill sets, and discovery of learning modalities.
We select sports each year based on three factors: 1) student interest and participation, 2) one sport selected per season (due to the size of our school population), and 3) each sport is chosen in accordance with what we believe is most appropriate for the development of our young adults at their specific age.
The success and availability of our Athletics Program is dependent on the financial, moral, and logistical support of our school community. Please contact our Athletics Director, Mike Carroll at athletics@summerfieldwaldorf.org, to learn how you can contribute to the success of this important program. Go Mustangs!

High School Sports
Summerfield Waldorf High School is a member of the California Interscholastic Federation, which partners our school with other independent and public schools in the Bay Area to form the Small School Bridge League. Students who remain in good academic standing are eligible to participate in any sport, regardless of experience or ability.
Our teams practice three times per week at the Summerfield, or rented gymnasiums. Interest in after-school fall sports is strong, with 30% of the high schoolers participating in volleyball and soccer. Our HS Basketball teams are also well supported by our students, and the typical season includes around 20 contests and a year-end tournament. Students of all abilities are invited to become part of these teams.
