Athletics at Oakcrest
Welcome to Oakcrest Athletics!
Driven by our school's mission, Oakcrest students are challenged to do their very best with a joyful, sporting spirit, seeking virtue in all they do.
By taking a personal interest in each student-athlete, our coaches inspire our girls to give their very best to their teammates at every practice and game.
Our athletes stand out as much for their positivity and sportsmanship as for their excellent abilities. Our coaches stand out for their respect and kindness even as they demand the most out of each girl.
Because our athletics program is designed for young women, our coaches are dedicated to excellence in female athletics. In every sport and fitness program, we build up the confidence of our student athletes through strength and skills training, nutrition and hydration guidance, and promoting a healthy body image.
With a unique perspective on the needs of female athletes, we have a particular interest in safety. We encourage our athletes to participate in more than one sport to take advantage of cross training. All our coaches receive concussion training through the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS). In addition, our athletic trainer works with students on injury prevention and safe return to play after an injury.
