Wildcat AthleticsProgram Philosophy
The Whole Child
Our #1 goal is to help create a well rounded, productive individual that will be a major contributor to their community as an adult.
To achieve this, we will not focus on the “athlete” only.
We care as much about the student, as we do the athlete.
The Whole Child We strongly encourage all athletes to play more
than one sport. Participating in Band, Drama, Ag, Choir,
Cheerleading, etc. and athletics is a wonderful experience and all athletes will have the opportunity to do so.
The athletic program will be flexible and work with the athletes so they can participate in multiple activities.
Any work that was missed will have to made up and it will be up to the head coach on how that is handled.
The ATHLETIC Program
Total Program Starts at the Middle School Middle school program must be committed
to building the program 1st and winning 2nd
The middle school program must mirror the high school program.
Must be an Athletic Program offering multiple sports, not a bunch of independents fighting for survival
The ATHLETIC Program
WHS Athletics
Football/ Volleyball
Basketball Baseball/ Softball
Track/Cross Country Power Lifting
Tennis/ Golf
The entire high school program will have a mandatory performance enhancing- injury prevention program in season and in the offseason.
The middle school will be introduced to the weight room both in season and offseason as well.
The weight room is used for injury prevention first, performance enhancement second.
The ATHLETIC Program
Weight room sessions that are conducted before school or after school are not extra. It is a valuable part of being an athlete and are necessary to the health of the athlete and the success of the program.
We will not ask an athlete to lift on game day. (Sub-varsity or varsity).
The ATHLETIC Program
Player Expectations

body Disciplined Enthusiastic Play more than one sport
Discipline
Discipline is something we do FOR the athletes, not something we do TO them
It has to come from a culture of being a part of something bigger than yourself
It starts with the little things…
Discipline- The Little Things Standardized dress Clean Locker rooms Starting on time Sense of urgency (movement) Controlling emotions Vertically and horizontally aligned warm-ups
(helps athletes transition between sports) Consistent language between sports (break outs) Proper behavior in the classroom Respectful dialog with coaches
Discipline- The Big ThingsDeal Breakers- Removal for one calendar year Charged with selling drugs or charged
with possession of illegal drugs
Caught stealing from a teammate
Discipline- Major InfractionsMajor Infractions Alcohol use or alcohol related infractions Insubordination (telling a coach “No”) Arrested or charged with any criminal or
illegal activity1st offense 20% of season 2nd offense 40% of season 3rd offense removal from athletics
Wildcat Family
Be a part of something bigger than yourself
The TEAM take priority over the individual The pinky toe is just as important as the
heart (know your role and embrace it). Every athlete will get coached and be
given the same opportunities. It is up to the athlete to take advantage of those opportunities.
Playing Time Playing time will be determined by the head
coach of each sport. The coach’s first responsibility is to the
team’s and the program’s success. Any concerns about playing time need to be
addressed with the athletes head coach 1st. Playing time at the sub-varsity levels will be
spread out as evenly as possible. At the varsity level, we will play the athletes
that we fell give us the best chance to win.
