Nile Academy offers a vigorous sports programme that teaches our students the importance of health, strength, teamwork, and discipline. We instil in our students that a healthy individual is made up of a healthy mind and body.
Nile Academy’s wrestling, soccer, and basketball varsity teams compete with other area secondary schools. Nile Academy is a member of TDCAA (Toronto District College Athletic Association), which is a member of the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations.
Our athletic teams are committed to learning through effort (blood, sweat, and tears!) and dedication to practice. We do not compete to accumulate medals, but to expose ourselves to challenge, and to have our weaknesses exposed, so that we may come back to practice and improve. Of course, we want to win our matches, but we know what we control (our effort) and what we do not (win/loss record).
