YOUTH SPORTS AND FITNESS
Mission
Statement:
The Fort Huachuca Youth Sports and
Fitness Program is committed to providing each
child/youth with an enjoyable learning
experience. The foundations of the
Programs are good sportsmanship and creating a
safe environment where children and youth can
gain a better understanding of each respective
sport.
We understand that the primary reason
young athletes participate in sports is to
have fun while competing with each other.
It is not all about winning or losing.
We believe every child/youth matters and
should be given the opportunity to learn and
improve his or her knowledge, skills, and
abilities. We are committed to providing
a safe place where our children and youth can
participate in sports and improve in their
athletic abilities.
We believe that while competition is
important, the greater value lies in competing
with honor, practicing good sportsmanship, and
being gracious in victory and defeat.
Sportsmanship is expected of everyone involved
with the Fort Huachuca Youth Sports and
Fitness Programs—from the coaches, players,
parents, and referees.
