Sport at Westlake Girls High School

Westlake Girls is one of New Zealand’s leading sporting schools, with a strong commitment to sporting excellence. All our students are encouraged to participate in a school sport during their time at Westlake.

We have over 30 sports ranging from Athletics to Yachting with opportunities both for the committed athlete to develop their potential, and also for others to play at social or beginner level. Engagement in sport enables students to experience the health benefits that sport offers while building a strong team and school spirit which involves staff, students and the extended Westlake community. In addition to providing opportunities to develop personal and leadership skills, sport also fosters social interaction and a sense of fair play.

The success of sport at Westlake Girls relies on volunteers working away in the background to promote individuals and teams. Each sport has a school coordinator who is supported by staff, parents, caregivers and senior students for coaches and managers. Sport at Westlake Girls is based on a user-pay system.

The Sports Department located next to Gym 3, and provides information on all sporting activities.

The Sports Department is open during school hours for queries or alternatively contact: [email protected].

Premier Netball Coaching Clinic 2025

The Westlake Girls Premier Netball Team will be holding a Netball Coaching Clinic on Sunday 13 July at school from 9.30am – 12.30pm and 1.30pm – 4.30pm. We would like to invite Year 1 – 8 students to come and get ready for the business end of the season as everyone heads into the finals at the end of August.

The Clinic is focused on polishing your skillset and tactics as well as game play so you are fresh and ready after the holidays. There will be two sessions, one in the morning and then it will be repeated in the afternoon. The cost of a 3 hour clinic is $35. If you would like to take part in this event and help the Westlake Girls Premier Netball Team raise money for their campaign to the Upper North Island Champs then please register below.
