GAME ON!
ATHLETICS
Changes to the Athletics Department enhance the experience for the next generation of student-athletes.
When student-athletes returned to the Cheshire Academy campus this fall, they were greeted with a full slate of athletic competitions and contests. It was a major change from last year, when an abbreviated athletic program was offered due to games being rescheduled, postponed, and canceled due to COVID-19. The varsity football, boys’ and girls’ soccer, volleyball, and cross country programs, as well as junior varsity teams, were all back in action for their seasons. The plan, according to Associate Head of School David Dykeman, is similar for the winter sports season. As for how the teams are handling the risks posed by the coronavirus, Dykeman said that having a campus full of vaccinated individuals was integral to this year’s success.
