Athletics

The purpose of the athletic program at Richmond Academy is to foster physical development and athletic skills while teaching the value of personal discipline, commitment, and the subordination of self-interest to the higher goal of team achievement.

All students are expected to participate in some type of organized physical activity at the school each day, unless exception is made by the director of athletics.

While it is not the intent of the school to dictate each sport or activity in which a student engages, the staff, through its expertise, is charged with the responsibility of providing guidance and encouragement to students in selecting the area which best fulfills the individual’s God-given talents.

These are the goals for student participation in the athletic program:

• To challenge the student to learn what it means to do one’s best.

• To teach self-discipline and humility, qualities which come from learning to function effectively within the framework of the rules and which benefit the team, the school, and most importantly, the individual.

• To teach the meaning and value of personal commitment, a trait we would like to develop in every student. Success in athletics nearly always involves teamwork and self-sacrifice.

These concepts are the cornerstone for building and developing conscientious, reliable citizens for the future. To this end, Richmond Academy is committed.
