At Delburne Centralized School, we pride ourselves on a rich history of excellence in athletics. Our large gym's walls are adorned with banners celebrating achievements in basketball, volleyball, badminton, track, and rodeo.
I am committed to continuing this legacy while ensuring that winning is not our only focus. Our philosophy is simple: Success will be celebrated, but personal growth will be embraced.
We will strive to win, but our primary focus will be on personal development. We aim to not only develop skilled athletes but also to nurture better individuals. We will teach our students valuable life skills that extend beyond sports, including sportsmanship, self-discipline, leadership, resilience, and teamwork.
Our athletes will be held to high standards, both in their sports and academics, as they serve as role models for younger students. Our athletes are leaders within our school community.
In addition to personal growth, we are dedicated to setting our students up for athletic scholarships. We recognize the importance of providing our athletes with opportunities to further their education through their talents. By focusing on their development, we aim to open doors for them to pursue higher education and compete at the collegiate level.
I want our athletes to carry their love for sports with them as they mature. Sports have a unique power to connect people and provide light during challenging times. I have been fortunate to meet many wonderful people through my involvement in sports. To this day, I still find joy and inspiration in sports—whether through individual training or team play, it brings me immense satisfaction. My hope is that our athletes will carry the same passion with them throughout their time at DCS and beyond.
At DCS, our dedicated team will show patience and commitment in developing the next generation of outstanding athletes. Together, we will foster an environment where personal growth and athletic excellence go hand in hand, preparing our students for success both on and off the field.
