The main sports for boys are rugby, hockey and cricket; for girls, hockey, lacrosse and tennis. Stowe also offers an exceptionally wide range of other sports, giving everybody the opportunity to take part in an activity they enjoy. A boy who always knew he was a strong rugby player may suddenly discover he has a real talent for clay pigeon shooting. In the same vein, the county lacrosse star may find herself sculling on the lakes or teeing off on the ninth.
