Athletics

Ricks Center's Upper School Sports Program is designed with the intent of giving each student the chance to enjoy, learn, exercise, and compete at a level commensurate with his/her own abilities.

The Sports Program offers an opportunity to foster community relationships and promotes school pride, spirit and sportsmanship. Girls may play volleyball, basketball, and soccer. Boys may play soccer, basketball, and baseball.

Goals of Athletics Education

The goal of our sports program is to give each individual an enjoyable experience in the program by allowing them to compete at their own level. Certain teams are designed to give equal playing time to all participating students so they can enjoy the game, learn how to play the game through the rules and proper techniques, and further their skills through practice time and game experience.

Other teams are designed to give students the skills, enjoyment, knowledge, and competition that will prepare them with the necessary experience and skills to compete at the high school level.
