Harrow Hong Kong’s philosophy for Sport has a number of areas of focus: the pursuit of excellence through personal improvement and teamwork; ethical and responsible behaviour; adherence to the spirit and meaning of rules; leadership, strength of character and sportsmanship: respect for one’s opponents; acceptance of victory with humility and acknowledgement of defeat with grace. In order to develop such qualities through sport, children have to enjoy it and participate as widely as possible, particularly when they are young.
Pupils are expected to develop a desire to play the sport of their choice and maximise their sporting potential. This is done by providing up to three terms of their chosen sports. Eight full-time Physical Education staff and many external specialist coaches are also employed for the programme. There are additional activities such as Taekwondo, Yoga, Riding, Tennis and Ballroom Dancing on the SCA programme, and it is possible to take Dance ISTD exams at Harrow Hong Kong.

- Full-sized 4G astro-turf rugby and football pitch
