Overview
DigitalSports supports the educational policies for the role sports and
extracurricular activities play in the total education of your students. We see
athletics and activities as an integral part of the total educational process,
yet should never be placed in priority over the academic responsibilities.
DigitalSports supports the notion that kids who are active in their school – sports, clubs, activities,
volunteer positions, internships – are more likely to remain in school; and
achieve better grades.
We understand the overall goal of Schools to provide a balanced experience.
DigitalSports also understands that the drive for excellence and achievement is important; yet recognizes
that less than 1% of all kids receive a Division 1 athletic scholarship. On the
other hand, colleges and universities consider a student’s participation in
sports and activities as an important consideration when reviewing a student’s
records in the college admission process.
The health and well-being of your students is more important than the outcome of a game. However, there are
many positive benefits – most of which are life-long lessons – that are provided
to your students as a result of their participation in sports and activities:
|
Self Esteem |
Self Discipline |
Self Confidence |
|
Teamwork |
Goal Setting |
Perseverance |
|
Work Ethic |
Overcoming Adversity |
Fair Play |
|
Response to Change |
Leadership |
Being an Ambassador |
DigitalSports recognizes these benefits, and has devoted their mission to helping
your kids learn and accept the role they play. Furthermore, we seek to put some
room between the professional and College Sport experience from that intended
for our kids.
There are nearly 20,000 High Schools in the United States, and none are more
important than yours. At DigitalSports, we strive daily to provide
benefits, resources, access to funding and great experiences to schools around
the country.
