Here at Cartmel, there are alot of fantastic opportunities to get involved with sports. Whether you’re an experienced professional in a particular field, or a complete beginner who has the interest of learning something new, you can be sure that there will be something for you!

With the likes of Korfball, Tennis, Rugby, Squash, Rounders, Football and more to choose from, your certainly not limited in choice! The college also boasts many bar sports, such as Darts and Pool. Many of these items are available throughout the day, allowing Cartmellians to practise their technique- or just play for fun.

A lot of these sports are competed fiercely in what’s known as the Carter-Shield. This is an inter-college competition, much like a ‘mini Olympics’, where each college participates in a mixture of sports that earn (or not!) them points. The college obtaining the most points at the end of the year brings home the Carter Shield!
