Salesian student-athletes Compete with PRIDE

  • 6 California State Titles
  • 10 NorCal Championships
  • 32 North Coast Section Team Championships
  • 8 North Coast Section Individual Championships
  • 89 League Championships

The Salesian Pride includes 17 sports with 27 competition levels (Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Freshman) across 3 seasons (Fall, Winter, Spring). Over 70% of Salesian students participate in athletics.

Expectations of a Salesian Student-Athlete

Salesian College Preparatory recognizes the value of participation in sports, especially on the interscholastic level. Salesian Athletics teaches a student such values as self-discipline, self-confidence, perseverance, teamwork, sacrifice, dedication, and leadership. As such, student-athletes must maintain a 2.0 GPA to participate in our sports programs. To this end, our athletic coaches and staff work closely with our educators to ensure that each student-athlete feels fully supported in balancing the academic and athletic demands of being a student athlete. Our student-athletes are also expected to display good sportsmanship at all times. We encourage both current and future athletes to familiarize themselves with our Student-Family Handbook for more information.

League Affiliation

Salesian College Preparatory subscribes to and supports the ideals and standards of the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) and its North Coast Section (NCS). Salesian College Preparatory is a Tri-County Athletic League charter member (TCAL).

Salesian Athletics at the Collegiate Level

Known for its outstanding athletics program, Salesian has a dedicated specialist available to assist student-athletes who wish to continue to compete at the collegiate level.  The specialist will be available to assist and guide students and their parents in the college process and filing NCAA paperwork.  Participation in high school athletics may create opportunities at colleges and universities beyond athletic scholarships.
