Memorial High School is a member of the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association (NHIAA). It participates in Division I for hockey and football and Class L for the remaining sports.
In 2006 the softball team competed for the Class L championship, but lost to Salem. The baseball team, however, won the Class L championship game against Bishop Guertin in that same year. It was the first title for Memorial in any team sport since the hockey team won the Division I title in 1998, ending a title drought of eight years.
From 1991-1993, the Memorial boys basketball team suffered through a horrendous losing streak, dropping 50+ straight games. The streak received national attention and when the team finally won a game (during the Queen City Invitational Basketball Tournament against Laconia of Class I); it was reported on Boston television stations.
