The total development of the program and student athlete is conducted within the letter and spirit of all applicable rules and regulations. The explicit goal of all competitive sports is to win within the rules. However, that is by no means the only measure of success. Of greater and lasting value is the development of the individual as measured by character, competence, civility, and citizenship. At all levels of high school competition, an athlete must be prepared to make a substantial commitment which involves contests or practices six days a week, on some holidays, and during vacations. Athletes will not be expected to practice on Sunday unless the team is involved in a state series tournament and will play on the following Monday. Such a commitment demands much of the student and the student’s family. The number of participants on a team is a result of factors including available playing space and time, student skill level, number and variety of players needed to conduct an effective practice or to play effectively in a contest. In determining which and how many students will participate on a team, coaches consider both individual and group needs. Varsity play is the culmination of competition in a given sport. Junior varsity play is intended for those with potential to be varsity performers and for those whose aptitude is not yet of varsity competence.
