Gonzaga Sports

Information for the 2020-2021 School Year
We have created this web page to share information about Gonzaga Sports for the 2020-2021 school year. Unfortunately, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the WCAC has suspended all athletic competition until January. While our teams cannot compete, they are still meeting often virtually to train and build community. We are also looking to add team workouts in the near future. For more information, please contact one of the head coaches below.
 
As more information becomes available this fall, we will update this page. If you have any questions about a particular sport, please refer to each sport’s webpage, or contact the head coach. Thank you for your interest in Gonzaga Sports, and Go Gonzaga!
Attention parents: In order for your son to participate in sports at Gonzaga he must have a completed health record on file with the school. This record can be found and filled out by logging into Gonzaga’s website and clicking on the Magnus Health link.
