South Sumter Middle School proudly offers a dynamic athletics program that fosters teamwork, discipline, and school spirit. As the home of the Raiders, students can participate in a variety of sports, including football, volleyball, boys' and girls' basketball, softball, track & field, and golf. These programs encourage physical fitness, leadership, and a strong sense of camaraderie among student-athletes. Through practice and competition, Raider athletes learn the value of perseverance, sportsmanship, and school pride.

Our Athletics Department

Our program fosters school pride and community connections while promoting physical health and an active lifestyle.

Participation in sports enhances cognitive function, boosts academic performance, and develops essential skills like time management and teamwork. We believe that athletics enrich students' overall growth and well-being. Join us in pursuing excellence on and off the field!
