About Athletics

We believe that education through sports can be an extremely valuable tool for shaping the entire student as part of our graduate profile. Through competition, teamwork, and perseverance, Essex Tech student-athletes can learn valuable life lessons that will help them in their future careers ranging from college to the workplace.

Summer Strength & Conditioning
The registration for the 2024 Summer Strength & Conditioning program is now open. We have partnered with the “TeamBuildr” platform that will be utilized to track data, workouts, and growth throughout the program. This platform will be very user friendly and be able to be tracked through an app for instant access when necessary.
The program will begin on Monday, June 24, 2024 and run through August 8, 2024. The program will run four days per week, Monday through Thursday, with multiple sessions per day with two hour time slots available. Sessions will consist of an hour of the fitness center and an hour of on field speed & agility training.
Coach Connors, Coach Mastone, & Coach Walton will be sending out more information on timing in the coming weeks. Last Summer we only had just over 100 students take advantage of our program. This summer, our goal is to have well over 150 students sign up to utilize the program.
