If a vision is to be realized, it is important to identify the values that must be maintained. Sports – even for youth – can easily be compromised by those who get involved with other priorities.

We have drafted a list of “core values” that reflect our desire that the sports club be more about the healthy development of our children and community than the development of their skills. This is the direction we have chosen and the course we will maintain. Sports will always be there… healthy kids and community is what we have to work at.

1. Unity – We will strive to promote unity among different groups within the community as well as within each team.
2. Service – We recognize that we do not exist for ourselves and will provide an opportunity for each team to serve the community.
3. Discipline – We will use training and games to teach the importance of self-discipline, helping kids to see its benefits for all of life.
4. Teamwork – We will emphasize teamwork in training and through every player having the opportunity to play in games regardless of ability.
5. Sportsmanship – We will hold players and coaches accountable to positive attitudes toward teammates and opponents regardless of outcomes.
6. Family – We will always seek to reinforce the value of family by encouraging family input, participation and support.
