Lower School K-6

 

We are excited to roll out our athletics calendar for the 2026-27 school year!

All athletic clubs will meet on Thursday afternoons from 3:45–4:45.
For K-6 students, all of our sports offerings are open to boys and girls on each campus, except for wrestling which is limited to St. Alban's campus.

  • Run Club: September 3 – October 17

  • Soccer Club: October 22 – December 5

  • Wrestling Club (at St. Alban’s): January 21 – February 27

  • Flag Football Club: April 8 – May 15


RUN CLUB: SEPT 3–OCT 17

This club is a fantastic opportunity for your children to stay active with friends and develop their running skills. Run Club is open to all students in grades K-6. Students will build their cardiovascular endurance in long and short distances, through introduction to basic running programming and exercises. Run Club culminates in a Saturday Fun Run, where students can challenge themselves on a longer distance course at Northland.

Registration Fee: $85 per student / $55 for siblings


SOCCER CLUB: OCT 22–DEC 5


We look forward to continuing to develop your children’s ability and appreciation for “the beautiful game.” Athletes will participate in drills and games most appropriate for their developmental level as soccer athletes, all with the goal of being prepared to compete in the Northland vs St Alban's culminating scrimmages on Saturday, 5 December.

Registration Fee: $95 per student / $55 for siblings


WRESTLING CLUB: JAN 21–FEB 27

Ecclesial is proud to offer one of the oldest sports known to man: wrestling. Students will be familiarized with the fundamentals of American folkstyle wrestling, to include takedowns, escapes, and pinning holds. Gymnastic exercises and wrestling games will round out practices in addition to technical instruction. Wrestling is offered at the St. Alban’s campus only, and while enrollment is open to Northland students, we cannot provide transportation.

Registration Fee: $85 per student / $55 for siblings


FLAG FOOTBALL CLUB: APT 8–MAY 15

This program is open to all students K-6. Younger athletes will focus on the basics of flag football: throwing, catching, and pulling flags. Older athletes will be introduced to more advanced concepts, culminating in a Saturday match on the gridiron.

Registration Fee: $85 per student / $55 for siblings

Ecclesial varsity teams compete in each sport’s regular season against other schools.

The boys and girls cross-country teams, the boys wrestling team, and the girls’ flag football team are each open to athletes in grades 7-12.
