Program
Our team competes in the New England Prep School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) league in Class A, which includes top prep schools across New England. Our team has advanced to a NEPSAC Bowl in 2013, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2023, and 2024, winning in both 2018 and 2021. Numerous players have won awards over the years, including NEPSAC Player of the Year and All-Scholastic, and many have gone on to compete at the Division I, II, and III levels. Each spring, we invite top colleges and universities from around the country to a recruiting combine on our campus. Dexter Southfield football players have played for college and universities in all the Power Five conferences.
We take pride in cultivating players who consistently work hard, possess great character, and carry themselves well both on and off the field. We support all aspects of the college recruiting process for players who aim to play at the next level. Finding the right fit athletically, academically, and socially at all levels of the NCAA is the goal for all our student-athletes taking part in the recruiting process.
