Cross-Country Team
Vermont Day School offers a competitive Middle School cross-country team in the fall. Runners practice off campus on trails in the area and participate in local meets with other schools. The emphasis is on building endurance and speed, learning techniques and etiquette for trail running, and developing a passion for running in the outdoors with friends.
Ultimate Frisbee Team
In the Spring, we offer an Ultimate Frisbee team. Ultimate Frisbee is an upcoming sport in Vermont and a fun way to develop sportsmanship, endurance, strength and speed! Students learn strategy and the basics of the game, including throwing, catching, movement and defense. Scrimmages are held with other local ultimate frisbee teams.
Running Club
All students have the opportunity to participate in the Mini Milers program through Run Vermont. This program encourages participants to establish fitness goals and practice good nutrition and sportsmanship in a fun and safe environment. With the support of experienced coaches, each participant tracks mileage and earns incentives as they strive towards their individual running goals. Runners participate in the kids races the day before the Vermont City Marathon in May.
