SPARTA is the Sports and Arts Academy Programme at St Christopher's School, Bahrain.
Our classes utilise the exceptional facilities of St Christopher’s School including the latest generation, FIFA Standard, artificial grass football pitch as well as a fully shaded 7-a-side pitch. The heated and chilled, air-conditioned indoor pool, home to the St Chris Sharks, is the ideal setting for those learning to swim or looking to improve their technique and has space for parents to sit in comfort and watch their child progress.
These facilities enable us to further develop our coaching provision and ensure sessions can run all year round. SPARTA activities are also open to all members of the Bahrain community, with coaching offered to all age groups.

Our advanced swimmers can take part in trials to join our competitive Swim Squad, ‘The Sharks’. Our squad is split into mini teams, each team having access to a different level of training depending on their needs and standard. Some Swim Squad teams train twice a week, while others have the opportunity to train nearly every day and partake in dryland fitness activities to aid their flexibility and strength.
St Christopher’s Swim Squad attends approximately five Bahrain based competitions and approximately six overseas swim meets a year. Some of these competitions are open to all members of the Squad while others have qualifying times to enter. Recent overseas competitions have included Hamilton Aquatics competitions, Speedo Dubai, 4LSA meets, BSME Swimming Championships, BSME Games and The Middle East Unity Cup.
