Join the Team. Share the Dream.

Welcome to Athletics at William Penn High School. At William Penn, athletics is serious fun: skill, finesse, intelligence, strategy, passion, and, above all, heart. Our athletes play because they love the game, they love their teammates, and they love to represent the Colonials on the field, the courts, or in the pool.

At WP, we have an all-inclusive athletics program. If you can make the commitment and positively contribute to your team, we want you in cherry and black. We encourage our students to get involved and try something new. Most of our team sports offer Junior Varsity teams, so our student-athletes can develop their skills before jumping to the highly-competitive Varsity squads.

Competitive Athletics, Rigorous Academics 
William Penn High School students bring intensity and integrity to all their endeavors, and challenge themselves to excel in the classroom and on the field of play. Year after year, International athletes consistently earn recognition on all-conference teams with academic honors.

At William Penn, participation in interscholastic sports is fully integrated into the educational process and experience. Colonial student-athletes are active members of a campus community that values cultural diversity and gender equity, fostering a spirit of cooperation, leadership, commitment, and mutual respect. In short, true sportsmanship.
