Welcome to
St. Martin
School After School Sports Program.
St. Martin
School is a member of the San Jose Catholic Athletic League for boys and girls. The following after-school sports are offered to students in grades four through eighth: Flag football, Basketball (boys & girls), Volleyball, Soccer (boys & girls), Baseball, Softball, Swim Meet (boys & girls), Track (boys & girls), and Cheerleading. The after school sports program is an optional program that benefits the students in their development as a physical, spiritual and social being.
All students participating in our athletics program must have the Athletic Packet completed, signed and turned in to the Athletic Director, Mr. Christopher Terehoff before they are able to participate in any after school practice and/or games.

The Program |
 |
|
The Diocese of San Jose Athletic League is a recreational league. The sports offered and the number of teams organized will depend on the number of students who wish to participate each year. (The director of the after-school sports program will survey student interest.) Boys’ sports will normally include flag football, basketball, soccer and baseball. The girls’ program will include softball, soccer, basketball and volleyball. Both boys and girls have the opportunity to compete in a swim meet and track meet held annually. If an insufficient number of students are interested, if a sport conflicts with other activities, if certain sports are too expensive, or if proper equipment, uniforms or facilities are not available, then St. Martin School will not participate. |

Philosophy |
 |
|
The goal of the St. Martin’s After-School Sports Program is to provide enjoyable, wholesome activities for all qualified students who wish to participate. School athletics should provide the development of physical well-being, the acquisition of self-discipline vital to adult life, a wholesome release of physical energy, the development of good sportsmanship, understanding of the need for selflessness and teamwork, and the acquisition of emotional control during times of stress. Competition should be a positive experience in a supportive setting. A high priority should also be placed on the improvement of individual skills and the development of self-confidence in each player. The after-school sports program should be a focal point for generating school spirit and a sense of community. |
