Athletic Experiences at BG Go Beyond the Classroom
At Bishop Guilfoyle, athletic programs aren’t just about what happens on the field. Physical education—including athletic teams—is an opportunity to grow mentally, physically, and spiritually. Studies show that students who participate in sports develop strong leadership skills and tend to have more self-confidence, are more likely to volunteer their time and make donations as adults.
