Wycliffe College provides opportunities to engage everyone through a diverse, challenging, multi-sport experience across all abilities. We encourage pupils to try something new and push the boundaries.
We provide sport for pupils who are buddying Olympians, those who want to try something new, or those who enjoy sport at a non-competitive level. A healthy lifestyle is central to our offer at Wycliffe, and all pupils will participate in sporting activities.
