Canterbury Day

Athletic teams from The Frederick Gunn School and Canterbury School come together in the spirit of competition, sportsmanship, and camaraderie to participate in Canterbury Day every November. Game-day locations rotate between the two schools on an annual basis and school spirit is at an all-time high as the Highlanders take on the Saints and seek to accumulate points toward the Gunn-Canterbury Cup.

Throughout the year, one point is awarded to the winner of each head-to-head interscholastic athletic contest, regardless of level, between Canterbury and Gunn.  Ties are worth half a point.  At the end of the year, the school with the most points wins the cup.

Gunn currently holds the Gunn-Canterbury Cup, after winning the 2023-2024 yearlong competition.
