Competition & Ambition
Sport contributes to the vibrant and
energetic ambiance of Sir John Deane’s
and promotes a positive culture of
competition, teamwork, dedication
and ambition.
Students have the opportunity to represent the
College in a number of team sports including
rugby, football, rowing, hockey, netball and
basketball with the support of experienced
and dedicated coaches to help them fulfil their
potential. Teams compete in the North West
Colleges League and Association of Colleges
League as well as regional and national
tournaments.
Upon joining Sir John Deane’s, students
automatically become members of the Leisure
Club, giving them access to facilities including
the swimming pool, all weather pitch, gym
and sports hall.
The riverside location has created a proud history
of rowing success and our flourishing boat club
has seen students progress to national level,
while others join us as complete beginners.
Sir John Deane’s is the only Sixth Form College
in the country to have its own boat house,
situated on the banks of the River Weaver.
