Princess Anne's golf team won the Virginia State High School Golf Championship in 1971 and 1972. The team was notable in that it included Curtis Strange ('73), Allan Strange ('73), Phil Stewart ('73), and Jay Williams ('72). All would go on to become PGA golf professionals.
Club sports including lacrosse and crew have recently been founded, since the Virginia Beach school system does not formally participate in them. Informal extramural competitions between other local clubs and varsity teams of private institutions are common.
A long-standing club of Athletic Trainers allows students to voluntarily assist local team trainers and physicians.
