Philosophy
At Holy Family we believe another way to provide
Christian character development is through athletics. We
believe anyone who is willing to try a sport - should be
allowed the opportunity. Therefore, Holy Family has a
"no cut" policy for athletics.
The focus of our athletic program includes the areas of:
Knowledge, Physical Conditioning, Values and Attitudes.
|
 |
Knowledge. Our coaches work to
effectively communicate the fundamentals of the sport and then
build on these fundamentals. The coaches strive to motivate the
students to continue to develop their game.
Physical conditioning. Athletics is an opportunity for students
to become and remain physically fit. Physical activity
increases one's energy level and overall well-being. This can
carry over into academics and other aspects of a students' life.
Values and attitudes. This is the main focus of our Athletic
Program. In addition to the value of hard work and teamwork,
some of the other important values and attitudes learned thru
athletics include: integrity, pride, self-discipline, mental and
physical alertness, and above all - Sportsmanship.
