At Springdale, the objective of athletics is not just to emerge victorious, but to recognize and instill the many core values developed through participation. Students build character and develop confidence through competition on the court, track and field. This in turn, leads to discipline, mental resilience, and leadership skills. Our coaches are every bit as concerned with cultivating teamwork and sportsmanship as they are with the final score. And students love to come out to cheer on their classmates and roommates, building a strong sense of community.

Basketball

The Springdale basketball program is committed to providing an athletically competitive experience that develops and promotes team spirit, skill development, opportunity to compete against high-level competition, and the commitment to excellence. As an interscholastic sport, Springdale’s basketball program is an extracurricular activity that is a direct extension of the school’s academic program.

Soccer

Track meets and practices are held in the spring, and students practice conditioning during the winter months. Transportation, as needed to other locations and competitions, is available for students.

Sidelines Cheer is an organized sport activity involving short routines that combine dance, gymnastics, and stunt elements to cheer on our teams, especially our Springdale Lions basketball teams.

Sportsmanship & Safety are Our Highest Priorities.

Members of Springdale’s athletics teams are held to a high standard on and off the playing field. Student-athletes sign a creed outlining a code of conduct that embraces a philosophy of competition and behavioral expectations.

The athletics department makes safety their number-one priority. During every home and away game, a licensed athletic trainer is present to care for athletes during competition. In the event of an injury, the administrator on the field will communicate with medical professionals and contact parents appropriately.

If an injury occurs, our medical professionals will follow the correct protocols outlined by our athletic director and director of medical services. We consider all injuries to be serious and take every precaution ensure the safety and health of our student athletes. Coaches train in CPR and first aid, and always have medical equipment and first aid kits on hand during practices and competition.

We do not permit an injured player to return to practice or competition unless written permission is granted by the treating physician.
