Interscholastic athletic programs are an integral part of the total educational program. Connolly offers 23 different interscholastic sports for boys and girls and 38 separate teams throughout the year. Our program provides ample challenges for the highly competitive athlete as well as opportunities for those who are beginners to learn how to play a sport and to develop their skills.

Students at Bishop Connolly are encouraged to participate since such programs help:

•  to develop a satisfying relationship with one’s peers,

•  to develop through self-discipline and sacrifice desirable personal values

•  to enrich the academic program

•  to promote loyalty to the school

•  to provide opportunities for leadership and the development of initiative and creativity

During the 1990’s Connolly athletic squads routinely qualified for state tournament play. Our hockey program was the first to produce a state championship hockey team from southeastern Massachusetts . Our student-athletes have also won state championships in baseball and tennis; as well as state sectional titles in basketball, hockey, baseball, cross country, and tennis.

While all our teams are competitive and play to win, we recognize that "how the game is played" is as important as winning. Connolly athletes display heart, sportsmanship and proper conduct on the field of competition.
