HCOS Athletics

Why Sports?

Sports build more than skills, they build:

  • Character

  • Confidence

  • Leaders

  • Connection

  • Belonging

As an Independent Provincial Online Learning School, our students can join a local school team or compete in Individual school sports wearing HCOS colours.  For example, a student may join a local school to play basketball, volleyball, or any team sport, or train for an individual Sport like track and field and then compete wearing HCOS colours.

What can you do?

Talk to your students about interests they may have or are already involved in. A simple conversation can launch a student’s journey.  If you have questions, reach out to our Athletics Coordinator, who is here to help every step of the way.

How Does It Work?

See the Athletics flowchart for more information


Team Sports

Step 1
A parent or HCOS Teacher talks with the child to ask about whether they are interested in sports.

Step 2
The student connects with a nearby school willing to host them.

Step 3
That school sends a BCSS Online Learning/Alternate School Form to our Athletic Coordinator, who will handle the BC School Sports process to make it official.

Individual Sports

Students can join the BCSS STARS (BC School Sports) program by connecting with our Athletic Coordinator.

By visiting the https://athletics.onlineschool.ca parents (or students with their parents’ approval) can register their interest for the student to participate in their sport of choice.

All Fees and costs will be the family’s responsibility.
