The quality of our programs and our athletes call for the best facilities—two on-campus turf fields.

An Undeniable Win: Student Experience

Athletics are ingrained in every Agnes Irwin education. Here, Owls come to understand more deeply—and live out—our core values. They lead with character and strive for excellence, putting in long hours of practice to bring their “A game”. Teams foster optimal ways to foster community, trust, and respect. And what facet of school life better embodies wellbeing?

If you agree, then Agnes Irwin athletics merit your support. They complete the student experience and propel into the world graduates who know grit firsthand, apply teamwork, and have agency—because on the field they found and used their voices.

Surface Matters

These AIS sports require turf as a training and competition venue: field hockey, lacrosse, and soccer. Our high-achieving athletes at every level—Upper and Middle School, Varsity and JV—deserve facilities commensurate with their abundant talents and commitment.

More than 100 Owls have been recruited to play field hockey, lacrosse, and soccer for Division I, II, and III programs since 2018. Still, they find themselves competing for use of Phelps—the only turf field on campus. The alternative is a time-consuming commute to practice at Radnor Memorial field—a distinct disadvantage compared with peers at other schools.

The Ultimate Win: More Championships

Seeing our Owls in action is believing. Attend any one of their games—for example, the triple OT thriller the lacrosse team gutted out last spring at EA, ending in a 2–1 in-state victory—and you witness iron-fire determination, passion that demands our support on the sidelines and in this campaign. That team went on to share the Inter-Ac Championship.

To hoist more banners, we must field the best teams, a process that begins with recruiting the top student-athletes considering Agnes Irwin. Their visits place a premium on our facilities. You enable us to put our best foot forward.
