Athletics

At Pilgrim School, every student is an athlete. We believe that providing students with meaningful, engaging, and exciting physical activity is essential to their development. Team sports help students improve their strategy and teamwork skills, which benefit them on and off the field. All sports aim to promote physical fitness and health while developing gross motor skills. Our coaches build success and confidence through opportunities to improve based on each student’s abilities. Units of study include locomotive skill development, fitness development and assessment, team sports skills, aerobics, yoga, gymnastics, and stretching.

Winter Season Awards

Pilgrim Pom

At the end of February, our Elementary, Middle, and High School Pom teams showcased their remarkable talent at our final competition of the year. I am thrilled to announce that all three teams took home first place in their respective divisions. Furthermore, Pilgrim was awarded the prestigious trophy for Grand Master Champs. This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our teams, with a special shoutout to Ms. Ortega, our incredible Dance Coach.

Middle School Basketball

Our middle school students have made us immensely proud once again. The boys basketball team achieved incredible success, claiming two championships and finishing the season with an outstanding record of 17-1. They are now the proud holders of the Arroyo League and VCAL League championships. Congratulations to Coach Manly, Mr. U, and the entire boys basketball team. Go Panthers!

Meeting Each Student at Their Level

Early education and Elementary students work on agility, balance, and endurance in physical activities like running, climbing, and dancing. During these years, students are also introduced to the sports and other physical activities they can explore during Middle and High Schools. Secondary School students work with our Physical Literacy staff to facilitate continuing education in the world of play and athletics and continue to develop their athletic excellence.



A Tradition of Athletic Excellence 

At Pilgrim, athletics have always represented an important avenue for students to develop their best selves. A defining aspect of this emphasis on development is our expansive and inclusive athletic programs. Our programs range from traditional school programs like football, baseball, and basketball to tennis, rock climbing, and trail running. Additionally, students of all genders can compete in any sport they desire. 

Our student focused approach to the classroom reflected on the field. All students get their chance to partake in the action and feel pride in their team’s performance. Staff members work one-on-one with students to develop not only their physical performance, but their ability to build motivation and dedication which will serve them throughout their lives. 


Facilities for the Future


Featuring the largest green space in Koreatown, our amazing new field was developed with multi-use opportunities in mind. Our field is designed to maintain playability even on the wettest days and can host all California Interscholastic Federation contests. Most importantly, it’s an incredible space for students to explore their passions and to learn through play. 

While our gym is small, it is a rarity among the area’s small private schools. What it may lack in size, however, it makes up for in versatility. Our athletic staff is well-versed in using our gym space efficiently for practices and games. From hosting batting cages to basketball games, the only limit to what our facilities can offer students is their imagination.
