St. Philip Athletics
Bringing out the best in every student-athlete!
The Saint Philip School Athletic Program is designed to help our kids have fun and learn about life through sports. Volunteer coaches encourage our students to be respectful at all times, humble when they win, and gracious when they lose.
Mission
We always strive to provide a safe, fun environment for our student-athletes. Our coaches lead by example, practicing true sportsmanship and remembering that the feelings and welfare of our players are far more important than the outcome of any game. We strive to develop strong playing skills and to promote a friendly, respectful relationship among the student-athletes, coaches, referees, and parents.
