Throughout its history, Wilson athletics has incorporated educational athletics into its curriculum, as a vehicle to teach life lessons related to the promotion of sportsmanship and character development.
Recognizing the many challenges facing modern day interscholastic athletics, Wilson athletics adopted the Pursuing Victory With Honor program in 2003 to assist all invested parties in maintaining and promoting the integrity and educational value of Wilson athletics. Through the framework of the "Six Pillars of Character," Wilson athletics strives to teach, enforce, advocate and model positive sportsmanship and character development within the Wilson athletic teams.
