Philosophy
Since there is a great range in individual differences among boys and girls of this age (i.e., body build, interest, ability, experience, health, and the stages of physiological, emotional and social maturity), the athletic program is based on the principle of "the greatest good to the greatest number of participants involved". The interscholastic athletic program will supplement rather than serve as a substitute for an adequate program of required physical education, intramural and physical recreation for all students. It must be suited to the needs of boys and girls of this age. It will contribute to desirable growth and development of its participants physically, socially and otherwise. The welfare of the youth concerned is of greatest importance. All other needs and problems will be secondary. This interschool competitive program will be operated from as broad a base as possible to offer experience to many boys and girls. The program will place emphasis on: companionship among the participants on a squad and among squads of different schools; sportsmanship; and physical skills, techniques and training.
