Kingswood’s Core Values for Athletics
Respect
Win with humility; lose with grace and do both with dignity The successes and disappointments experienced in athletic competition can provide many teachable moments. Therefore, we will use these moments to relate these experiences to ways of dealing with the joys and heartbreaking situations in later life experiences.
Responsibility
Accountable to self and the team and representing Kingswood. Purple Pride! You’re at practice and games on time, ready to play and participate, academically prepared and eligible. You take care of your business in the classroom, on the practice field and in the game.
Safe
Coaches and Athletes will… Play by the rules. Follow directions. Teach and learn the proper techniques. We don’t practice or play in a way that ends in injury.
Learner
Athletics offers co-curricular activities with its courts, fields, and other playing venues being an extension of the classroom providing for a broad-based education with the development of multi-disciplinary life skills.
Kingswood is part of the Dysart Schools Blue Region. The region comprises schools from the district. Regular season games will be played against teams in that region. At the end of the regular season, the top 6 teams in the Blue and Green Regions will come together and compete in the Dysart Schools Tournament to crown a champion. The top four teams from the Dysart Schools tournament will compete in the Northwest Valley Athletic Conference Tournament of Champions against the top teams from Peoria and Deer Valley Unified School Districts.
