Philosophy
The Palmer Trinity School Athletic Department philosophy is
an extension of Palmer Trinity School's Mission Statement.
All members of the PTS Athletic community are expected
to act on and positively reflect the School's core values.
PTS Athletics provides opportunities for young people to
compete while encouraging the development of social
skills, building healthy habits, and fostering school spirit.
Our focus is on developing good athletes of good character.
We believe in instilling strong leadership skills and work
ethic. We will inform athletes about nutrition and fitness
development so they can apply this knowledge throughout
their lives. PTS athletes win when coaches focus on
helping them do their best both in the classroom and in
competition, and when athletes commit to dedicating
themselves to their sport, their teammates, their team,
and their skill development. We believe that combining all
of these components results in a formula for success.
Mission
To develop healthy habits, improve fitness, teach sports
skills, incorporate life lessons, and provide competition
at the appropriate level in middle school, junior varsity,
and varsity sports. We will guide student-athletes to build
the commitment, dedication, teamwork, accountability,
respect, responsibility, cooperation, integrity, humility, self
discipline, perseverance, courage, and loyalty needed for
the pursuit of excellence in the classroom and field of play.
