The Purpose of Athletics

Fayette-Ware Wildcat Athletics

An athletic program is important for many reasons but can be focused on three main points.  

It provides competition and exercise outside the wellness class for those woh have been given athletic talent.  This competition allows the athlete to develop traits such as character, discipline, and persistence that will benefit him later in life.  

Athletics is a focal point to help develop genuine school spirit.  It teaches students and student athletes how to be a member of a team and how to have loyalty to a purpose or cause.  

Athletics teaches the athlete how to have a healthy balance in many aspects of life including the social, academic, spiritual and physical. Students learn how to manage their time to accomplish all that is demanded of them during the athletic season.
