ISPS ATHLETICS

Welcome To Caimans Athletics 

DEPARTMENT STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY                     

At ISPS athletics is considered an integral part of the school’s program of education which provides experiences that will help students physically, mentally, and emotionally. Athletics are seen as an important part of the total learning experience. The lessons that can be learned from participation on a team are invaluable and help in the overall development of the individual. Sportsmanship, making a commitment, teamwork, competition and cooperation, how to win and lose, and fair play are all valuable lessons that are taught by participating in athletics. Athletic participation also plays an important part in helping the individual student develop a healthy self-image as well as a healthy body. Participation on the interscholastic teams adds to our school spirit and helps all students, spectators, and participants develop pride in their school. Such participation is a privilege that carries with it responsibilities to the school, to the team, to the student body, to the community, to the student’s family, and to the student himself/herself. In the community, athletes are judged both as individuals and as representatives of ISPS and should at all times display ISPS in the best possible way.

ISPS ATHLETIC MISSION STATEMENT

At ISPS we value the development of an active body through physical expression, and believe that exercise facilitates both personal and intellectual growth. This program aims to provide each participant with experiences that are both challenging and rewarding. It is designed to complement our academic program by promoting excellence and fostering self-esteem. We encourage our athletes to strive to realize their potential as both individuals and team members.  Practices and matches are viewed as opportunities to enhance understanding and develop skills that will enable athletes to develop holistically. It is our intent that all ISPS athletes and teams will consistently demonstrate an understanding and capacity for fairness, respect, integrity, responsibility, cooperation, caring, and dedication. Our goal is to create and nurture a tradition of athletic excellence through a team effort of administrators, coaches, athletes, parents and the entire ISPS community.

Vision Statement:

" The Athletic Department will strive to develop an outstanding athletic program to meet the needs of our international and resident student-athletes."
