Philosophy of the High School Athletic Program:

We believe that it is the duty of everyone affiliated with Collier County Athletics to…

1. Stress the values of fair play.
2. Recognize that the purpose of competitive athletics is to promote the physical, moral, mental, social, and emotional well-being of the individual.
3. View an athletic contest in the proper perspective, as a game rather than a “do or die” effort.
4. Downplay all conduct that tends to lessen the highest values of the game.
5. Stress the highest ideals of ethical conduct, sportsmanship, and fair play.
6. Show courtesy and respect to all visiting teams, fans, and officials.
7. Encourage the development of leadership, initiative and good judgment in all team members.

Sportsmanship - Expectations

Interscholastic Athletic programs are an integral component of the Superintendent’s mission of “Student Achievement and Development.”  As such, coaches, sponsors, and parents – who are first and foremost teachers and role models – are expected to demonstrate good sportsmanship in general and to promote self-discipline, poise, and compliance within the “Rules of the Game.”  Coaches and student-athletes are expected to exhibit behaviors that are exemplary and exceptional at all times.  Athletes represent themselves and their school community.  Coaches in all sports are expected to place emphasis on the ideals of good sportsmanship and to instill those values into their sports programs and their athletes.
