We believe that:

  • The middle school age athletes are at a unique stage of development.
  • Development, being able to learn from experience, making choices about future sports involvement, and having a positive learning experience are important priorities.
  • Participation for as many youngsters as possible is desired.
  • The program emphasis should be directed toward skill mastery, team concepts, cooperation with peers, and the fun of involvement and fair play.
  • Athletics are an extension of the classroom.

The learning outcomes we seek for our athletes:

  • The development of Confidence and Poise.
  • Game Concepts.
  • Learning from Winning or Losing.
  • Total Effort.
  • Friendships.
  • Positive Behavior.
  • Sportsmanship.

The Fans' Role:

The spectators at an athletic contest have an extremely important role in displaying good sportsmanship.

Fans should always:

  • Compliment student athletes in their attempts to improve and learn.
  • Realize that admission to observe the contest is a privilege, not a license to verbally assault others or be (generally) obnoxious.
  • Respect both players and fans of opposing teams.
  • Know and understand the rules of the game.
  • Respect the decisions of officials, and admire their willingness to publicly officiate student athletes, in the best interests of inter- scholastic sports.
  • Cheer good performances, regardless of uniform color.
  • Recognize and compliment the efforts of coaches, officials, and league and school administrators for their interest in expanding education.

The Athlete's Role:

An athlete is respected and admired by the student body, the spectators, and the community. It is a role filled with responsibility.

Athletes should always:

  • Follow the KLMSL philosophy and rules.
  • Live up to the standards of sportsmanship established by the league.
  • Learn the rules of the game and discuss them with parents, fans, and students of all ages, so all can have a better appreciation of the game.
  • Remember that you are representing yourself, your school, family, and community.
  • Respect your opponents. Who better than you understands the hard work that is put into sports and team effort?
  • Respect the integrity and judgment of officials.
  • Display positive actions in public at all times.
