Atlanta Youth Academy's Athletics Program is now in its eighth year. In the fall students have an opportunity to particpate
in flag football and soccer. During the winter students particpate in boys basketball and girls basketball. It is AYA's
desire to instill Christian values through particpation in team oriented athletics programs. Sports build character, self-esteem,
respect for oneself and others, pride in accomplishment, leadership skills, and a sense of teamwork, all of which are core
values for Atlanta Youth Academy.
Atlanta Youth Academy's Athletics Program is structured to develop the team skills of a student-athlete, therefore enhancing
his/her experience. Providing the students with an enjoyable and positive experience and teaching the necessary skills are
the most important aspects of the program. Rules interpretation, team strategy and tactics are taught on a consistent basis
both on the practice field and in physical education classes.
Goals include:
- developing a good work ethic, school/team spirit and positive self-esteem
- developing an appreciation and pride in the AYA community
- developing discipline and commitment
- focusing on cooperation, dedication and good sportsmanship
- maintaining a fitness level appropriate for competition
- functioning efficiently with regard to technique, rules and strategy
