Athletics are an integral part of everyday life at Fairfield Prep. With 17 Varsity sports, 35 athletic teams and more than 70 coaches, our goal is to have as many students as possible involved in athletics, experiencing everything Prep has to offer. Close to 80 percent of students at Prep are on at least one athletic team and 50 percent of our students are multi-sport athletes. Our highest rate of participation occurs during freshman year, as many students go out for a sport in each of the three seasons, allowing for them to get to know their new classmates better.
Athletic Programs
We offer 17 varsity sports at Fairfield Prep over the course of the fall, winter and spring.
Mission Statement of Athletics
At Fairfield Prep, athletics are a vital extension of our Jesuit mission to form young men of competence, conscience, compassion, and commitment. Rooted in the principles of cura personalis and the Grad at Grad framework, our athletic program develops student-athletes who lead with integrity, compete with passion, and grow in character.
We foster championship-level performance while prioritizing academic success, faith, service, and personal well-being. Through teamwork, discipline, and reflection, our athletes are called to be leaders—on the field, in the classroom, and in life. In victory and defeat, Prep athletes demonstrate grace, respect, and a deep appreciation for the Prep community that supports their journey.
