KC
Saints Basketball 2021
Basketball is a great way to get fit, have fun with friends and learn teamwork along with the skills associated with the sport.
This is made possible by the number of parents who volunteer to help coach teams. Without their commitment, dedication, passion and willingness to do so, we wouldn’t be in the position to successfully run the various sports for our students.
We place an emphasis on physical fitness and sportsmanship and intend the activities to be for enjoyment and healthy competition. The essential elements of character-building and ethics in sports are embodied in the concept of sportsmanship and six core principles:
- trustworthiness
- respect
- responsibility
- fairness
- caring, and
- good citizenship
