Field Hockey
The Kent Place field hockey program has earned the reputation of being one of the top in the country.
The Dragons compete in the Union County Interscholastic Athletic Conference (UCIAC) Essex/Union Red Division, the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA), and the New Jersey Independent School Athletic Association (NJISAA) Non-Public North A leagues.
The coaching staff and veteran players alike welcome newcomers. In this program, the girls learn sportsmanship, teamwork, and to respect themselves, all within a family atmosphere that enables every athlete to reach her full potential. Our daily training consists of technical and tactical work, speed and conditioning, weight training, mindfulness, goal-setting, and nutrition.
Recent graduates of the KPS program have gone on to play at some of the top Division I and Division III programs, such as those at Duke, Yale, Amherst, Williams, Hamilton, Babson, Haverford, Wellesley and Johns Hopkins.
