WHAT SETS SMS APART
TAILORED TRAINING FOR FEMALE ATHLETES
Female athletes are 3.5 times more likely than male athletes to suffer ACL injuries, and at St. Margaret’s, we’re doing something about it. What sets us apart is our commitment to training that’s built for girls’ bodies, not adapted from boys’. Our Athletics Program combines cutting-edge sports science with tailored strength and neuromuscular training to enhance knee stability, improve biomechanics, and teach safe, powerful movement. Our athletes are trained to move with precision and purpose, building strength and reducing injury risk while maximizing performance.
