In spite of an unseasonably warm winter that presented training challenges for all Snow Sports athletes, Holderness School is sending an unprecedented number of skiers and snowboarders – 26 in total – to national competitions this spring.
Rock Climbing (Fall)
Overview
The climbing program encourages students to set personal goals, both mental and physical, and create plans to accomplish them. On shorter practice days we travel to nearby Rumney Rocks, a premier sport climbing destination and one of the best venues for learning to rock climb in America. On longer days we venture to granite cliffs around the state, from single-pitch venues in Franconia Notch to multi-pitch experiences on Cathedral and Whitehorse Ledges in North Conway. On rainy days we hike any of the numerous mountains close to campus or work on technical skills in the gym.

This month, Henniyah Rivers ’25 added to that reputation by competing in slalom and giant slalom for Jamaica at the World Junior Olympics in Gangwon, South Korea. In doing so, she became the first-ever female alpine skier to compete for Jamaica in an international competition.
Apart from the 4,139-foot vertical drop, 2,500-acres of in-bounds terrain, and dizzyingly high elevation, the Holderness School Freeride team felt right at home when they visited Jackson Hole Mountain Resort in early January.
With the stands packed full of students, teachers, and parents all sporting t-shirts emblazoned with the words ‘Sarah Strong’ and the players donning orange ribbons on their uniforms, it was an exciting weekend of hockey on the Holderness campus. Boys Varsity Hockey defeated Governor’s Academy 6-2 with Jacob netting a goal in the second period. Girls Varsity Hockey won an exciting back-and-forth game over Hoosac School 6-4. However, more important than the numbers on the scoreboard was the number of students who came together to raise money throughout the week. All together, 73 students helped to raise over $10,000 for the Sarah Duval Memorial Fund.
On January 19, the Holderness School community gathered to dedicate the Davis Cross Country Ski Trails, a network of snowmaking-equipped Nordic racing loops that have establish the school as one of the best places to train and race in New England.
Congratulations to all the exceptional student-athletes and their coaches who made this fall sports season so memorable! The hard work, dedication, and passion displayed on the fields, trails, and cliffs, has represented Holderness School well.
