“Communication is the key, trust, and loyalty. If players know you care about them, they’re going to trust you and they’re going to be unselfish.”

Standards of Athletes
Athletes are observed in many areas of school and community life. An athlete must always remember that they no longer represent just themselves, but represents their team and school. Therefore, it is important that an athlete’s attitude and behavior, both at school and in the community, be above reproach so that it will bring credit and honor to their team and school.
SADDLEBACK VALLEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT ATHLETIC CODE STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
Saddleback Valley Unified School District athletic programs are designed to provide students with the opportunities to develop both physical and mental strength. We believe that a successful athletic program helps our athletes develop a sense of pride, self-confidence and encourages leadership skills.
Our athletes learn a self-discipline which will help them through their adult life, where the ability to maintain poise and self-control in all situations is vitally important. We encourage all athletes to strive for excel, and to understand that the path to success is hard work and determination.
Moral conditioning and sportsmanship is a key component in our athletic programs. Athletes are required to work diligently to achieve both individual and team goals as well as to meet the athletic standards of the District. Interscholastic athletics is a voluntary program in which participation is a privilege and not a right.
Accompanying that privilege is the responsibility of the athlete to conform to the following guidelines established for all participants in the athletic program.
