Saint Ignatius competes in the Chicago Catholic League (CCL) and the Girls Catholic Athletic Conference (GCAC) and is a member of the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) which governs most sports and competitive activities in the state. The school's teams are stylized as the "Wolfpack".
The school sponsors interscholastic teams for young men and women in basketball, bowling, cross country, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field, volleyball, and water polo. Young men may compete in baseball, football, and wrestling, while young women may compete in cheerleading and softball. While not sponsored by the IHSA, the school also sponsors teams for young men in ice hockey and rugby, for young women in field hockey and dance. There is also a coed sailing team, and crew teams for both young men and women. However, the only team in recent memory to represent the school on the national level are the boys and girls crew teams, who compete at the SRAA nationals on an annual basis. At the 2010 SRAA nationals in Saratoga Springs, NY the boys junior 4+ took second place.
