Overview
Field Hockey - Girls 2nd Team
The Brooks field hockey program consists of a 1st and 2nd team. Each team enjoys a competitive schedule within the Independent School League (ISL), the oldest independent school athletic association in the United States. Teams are created based on skill, and while the varsity program is very strong, the lower level act as a feeder system within the program.
Most important, the entire program focuses on a tradition of team-building, with intensity and commitment to each other as the primary goals. Both on the field and off, veteran players take seriously their role as student and athlete mentors to their younger teammates, which has helped build the successful program that exists today. There is also an emphasis on honoring the game of field hockey as well as respecting opponents.
