Parents, Fans and Visitors,
What is an athletic program? It is many things. It is the fields and venues
where athletes meet to compete, the locker rooms where teams bond together, the
friends that are made with teammates and opponents, the coaches that give of
their time to try and produce a team that works together, the parents that work
and toll so their children can participate in the program. Finally, it is a
place where young men and women may come together to try and represent their
school, their teams and their families with a since of honor, integrity, and
sportsmanship.
Our athletic program has been blessed with a rich heritage of excellence
both on and off the field for well over 100 years. Whether in the academic
classroom, on the athletic field, or the military parade field, we know that
our Bulldogs and LadyDogs will represent their team, their school and their
families in an exceptional manner.
Character development is one of the most important aspects of GMC. We
believe that the athletic field is one of the best areas for this development.
It is on the field that athletes learn valuable lessons of life. They learn how
to win with humility and how to lose with honor. They learn that if one gives
all he is a winner, regardless of a win or loss. Athletes are taught that nothing
important comes easy; the important things take the most work. Virtues of hard
work, dedication, integrity and sportsmanship are outcomes of each game and
each season.
Our promise here at GMC is that we will continue to try and improve all
areas of our athletic program. We will continue to hire coaches that are not
only there for themselves and their egos, but are there for the players. We
will continue to stress hard work, dedication to one’s team, and dedication to
one’s own honor. We will continue to improve our venues so that each athlete
may be proud of where they play. We will continue to do all of this so that we
may be one of the elite programs in the state of Georgia for years to come.
