Athletics
Mission
The mission of the Annunciation Catholic School Athletic Program is to provide a positive and supportive environment that offers students in grades 5-8 the opportunity to enjoy the experiences of athletic competition, and to develop the skills necessary to participate in competitive sports while enriching the educational and personal experience of our athletes.
Philosophy
Annunciation Catholic School believes that athletics are an essential component to the school's academic program. The athletic program offers unique opportunities outside the classroom to promote self-discipline, improved self-image and encourage a healthy sense of competition. The development of these principles leads to athletic and academic success and promotes character development that supports person, social, and career success later in life. The ultimate objective of the program is for the athletes to improve their skills while learning sportsmanship and having fun.
Annunciation Catholic School is a member of the Catholic Youth Athletic Association, Diocese of Phoenix. Click the link to view the C.Y.A.A handbook.
