King School is a member of the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) and, with an Upper School enrollment of 400, competes primarily in Class C tournaments for small schools. Despite this classification, King Girls Volleyball’s prowess compelled NEPSAC to move the team into Class B for midsize schools in 2019. Many King teams also compete in the Fairchester Athletic Association (FAA), which does not consider school size. King teams regularly compete for FAA championships against larger Class A and Class B schools. This context underlines the accomplishments of King’s successful teams.
