The Governor's Academy maintains a strong athletic program rooted in a long tradition of excellence. We are committed to providing a variety of opportunities that meet the talents, interests, and needs of our student-athletes. Academy teams continuously face rigorous competition from some of the top preparatory schools in New England, and our coaches are committed to helping their players achieve their dreams. At The Governor's Academy we strongly believe in coach as teacher and teacher as coach. In the athletic program, we are committed to you as an individual, a player, and a student. Come join the Governors!
