The Hammond Athletic Program is a publication of the Skyhawk Club and the Athletic Department at Hammond School. All advertising proceeds directly benefit all athletic teams at Hammond. Thank you for your generous support of our student athletes. Hammond School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in any of its policies, practices or procedures.

Welcome to Hammond!

Whether you have been a longtime Skyhawk supporter, or are visiting our campus for the first time, we welcome you to Edens Stadium. The 20232024 school year promises to be another great year of academic excellence, athletic competition, and star-studded arts performances. We are looking forward to continuing our tradition of excellence in all our endeavors.

In addition to a strong academic program, Hammond’s school experience is further defined by co-curricular activities that help students cultivate curiosity, discover talents, and become lifelong learners. We begin our 58th fall season with a cumulative 156 state championship wins, an impressive history for a relatively young school. This athletic success has played an integral role in helping foster a sense of shared loyalty within our school community that spans decades and generations.

While winning games is a priority, life lessons in teamwork, commitment, discipline, and perseverance, among many others, are often taught on the playing field. Not only is our goal to build champions and pursue championships, but also to build young people of character who are prepared for the journey ahead.

Thank you for being here to support our student-athletes. Your presence and positive sportsmanship help contribute to the spirit that defines Hammond. I am honored to be a member of the Hammond community and wish every Skyhawk team the best of luck!

Andy North Head of School

Dear Skyhawk Supporters,

On behalf of Hammond Athletics and all members of the Skyhawk Club Board, I would like to welcome you to the 2023-2024 school year and thank you for your support of Skyhawk athletics. The mission of the Skyhawk Club is to provide financial and volunteer support and assistance to all Hammond athletic teams, coaches and support staff. The Skyhawk Club funds facility improvements, equipment and uniform purchases and helps cover other costs required by Hammond athletic teams.

Since 1967 Hammond has won over 150 State Championships, produced dozens of collegiate student-athletes, and is widely regarded as the most successful SCISA program in the state. As successful as Hammond teams are on the field, the Athletic Department’s stated goal to develop the intellectual, physical, social and moral strength of each student-athlete provides a lasting and enduring benefit that each student-athlete will carry with them in the classroom and life.

Starting in pre-kindergarten, Hammond ensures that all of its students are involved in and benefit from the community fostered and supported by the Hammond Athletic Department. As proud parents of one Hammond Alumni and a current Senior, both of whom started Hammond in pre-kindergarten and participated in multiple sports dating back to 6th grade, my wife and I witnessed the immeasurable benefits our children experienced from Hammond’s dedication to its athletic programs. From their excitement to participating in pep rallies and attending games as Junior Skyhawks to raising State Championship trophies as varsity athletes, both of our boys owe much of their personal growth and success to their participation in Hammond Athletics.

The funds raised by the Skyhawk Club directly support these efforts and without your past, current and future support, Hammond’s athletic excellence and its impact on all student-athletes would not be possible. Thank you again for your support and Go Skyhawks!

Wes Jackson Skyhawk Club President 2023-2024

Skyhawk Welcome

Dear Skyhawk Fans and Visiting Guests,

This year marks the 58th season of athletics at Hammond. For a relatively young school, we have amassed an impressive record of state championship wins and reached a level of athletic participation not always seen in other programs. Nearly 95% of our students, from grades 6th - 12th, play one or more sports in a given school year. With an overall record of 156 state championship wins, we pride ourselves on excellence in all facets of the Hammond experience.

Here at Hammond, we strive to develop the intellectual, physical, social, and moral strength of each student, and to provide a multitude of opportunities in which this can happen. Realizing that academics is the backbone of our program, we believe athletics plays a vital role in helping students become champions not only on the field, but in the classrooms and in life.

We are pleased to have you join us. Thank you for supporting our student-athletes. Go Skyhawks!

Jeff Barnes Athletic Director

Aim High

To outshine the competition and be the best in your field it takes time, perseverance and above all, teamwork. As a proud sponsor of the Skyhawks, we wish you the best of luck this season in athletics and in academics!
