Students are encouraged to get active during recess, on intramural teams and on our school athletic teams. Participation on teams is determined through tryouts and criteria established by the coach. The students chosen to represent the school on these teams must be students in good standing. Team shirts and equipment used by the teams are to be properly cared for and returned to the school immediately following each sporting event.
Thanks to the generous funds from Admaston Bromley Township, Admaston Public School was able to purchase a Gaga pitt for recess play. Gaga is a game similar to dodgeball, played in an octogon playing area. The object is to avoid being hit by the ball while at the same time trying to hit you opponent to eliminate them fromn the game. Our recess game plays continuously with students rotating in as others are eliminated.
Admaston's Cross Country team trains regularly in the Fall. The Renfrew area meet takes part at Ma-Te-Way Park when Admaston students compete against other area schools.
Students fro Admaston have an opportunity to compete in the annual tri-school Flag Football tournament t at Ma-Te-Way Park. Our team competes against students from Queen Elizabeth P.S. and Central P.S.
