PHILOSOPHY
St. Robert's
believes that participation in the St. Robert's
Athletic Program is an educational activity that
contributes to the physical, social and spiritual
growth of the student/athlete involved; and
therefore, develops the student/athlete as a
Christian person.
With this in
mind, the philosophy of the St. Robert's Athletic
Program accordingly strives:
- To provide a
positive atmosphere in which both
students/athletes and coaches enjoy the athletic
activity.
- To learn to
play the sport in the correct
manner.
- To provide a
program in which players are taught to RESPECT
opponents, officials, umpires, themselves, and
each other.
- To learn the
value of teamwork, dedication, cooperating and
making and keeping commitments.
- To promote
and become true "Student/Athletes"; They are at
St. Robert's for education
first.
- To create
athletes who have been developed to their
maximum potential in skill and attitude at this
level.
- To have fun
and compete.
This philosophy
is to be apparent in all grades. There will be
continuity in every aspect of the game on all
teams.
COACHES
Coaches
are volunteers devoting their time to helping our
children.
COMPETITION
Competition
is vital to sports, but don't confuse competition
with winning. The effort made is the competition,
not the final outcome of the contest. Win or lose,
if you've given your best effort, you have been
successful, and that is what is
important.
