Queen of the Rosary School Athletics programs give students in grades 4-8 the opportunity to participate in Volleyball, Basketball, Soccer and Cheer. Organized sports are more than just games. While honing physical skills and athletic development students learn important values like fair play, sportsmanship, leadership and self-discipline. Through teamwork and competition, student athletes grow both on and off the field, learning life lessons that will stay with them forever!
"[I] consider sports an an instrument of education when it fosters high human and spiritual ideals: when it forms youth in an integral way in values such as loyalty, perseverance, friendship, solidarity and peace. Surmounting differences of cultures and ideologies, sports offers and ideal occasion for dialogue and understanding among peoples, for building the desired civilization of love. To put into practice these values, based on the dignity of the human person, in face of possible interests that might darken the nobility of sports itself."
-Pope John Paul 11 (Sept. 16, 2002)
