PHILOSOPHY OF WBAL ATHLETICS

The value of athletics has long been an accepted tenant of elementary school education which strives to develop each individual in a manner fostering growth of spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social and physical characteristics.

The WBAL's mission is to develop-in mind, body and spirit-student athletes and school teams, who act with integrity and character, and compete with sportsmanship, purpose and pride; amd to safely and responsibly administer league contests conscientiously with respect for the games, teams, officials and member schools.

Compliance with League policies and consistent enforcement of sports policies and procedures are essential components for a successful league. League school model behaviors and standards for conduct for their student athletes, and should be consistent and accountable by strict adherence to this document.

The WBAL was organized to provide inter-scholastic competition for schools in the Mid-Peninsula area. Through its existence, the league members subscribe to and provide:
