Educational Based Athletics

Educational based athletics is defined as an athletic program that can provide students with growth that will sustain them well beyond physical skill development and the knowledge of a game, provide growth opportunities that leads to positive transformation, and connects them to caring adults in their educational environment.

Why we DO what we do!

What is educational Athletics and why does this differ from club sports?

Interscholastic athletic competition is an extension of the classroom and an educational activity that provides outstanding opportunities to teach life lessons.
Through participation in such programs, young people learn values and skills that help prepare them for the future.
Leadership, goal setting, teamwork, decision making, perseverance, integrity, sacrifice, healthy competition and overcoming adversity are inherent in the interscholastic athletic framework and also support the academic mission of schools.
Student-athletes earn the privilege to participate by succeeding academically, and the resulting positive outcomes continue far beyond graduation.
These programs exist to prepare young men and women for the next level of life, not the next level of athletics.
Wins are achieved through athletics by developing successful athletes and teams, but more importantly, wins are achieved through the educational experience by developing successful and responsible students, leaders and community members.
The positive educational outcomes of interscholastic athletics do not happen by chance. They happen because teacher-coaches and school administration adopt an intentional and purposeful approach to the interscholastic athletic experience.
