Welcome to Giants Country!

Athletics is an integral part of education and complements our greater mission at Bishop Brady. Lessons of commitment, teamwork, tenacity, and overcoming adversity are advanced on our courts and fields. It is in the heat of competition that our student-athletes experience great life lessons. These lessons go beyond the X’s and O’s and into the heart of each competitor as they develop into people of strong character.

Our Philosophy

The Bishop Brady Athletic Department acknowledges the following order of priorities in our school:

God and Family
Academics
Athletics

When this order is followed, we believe it gives our student-athletes the opportunity to be balanced spiritually, intellectually, physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Goals

Based on our philosophy, our athletic department and team goals are:

Excellence: Our programs are focused, well managed and well executed.

Success: Reaching maximum potential both individually and as a team.

Learning: We emphasize the individual goal of Academic All-State to all of our students; being a great student and a great athlete is a difficult task, an admirable goal, and a worthy accomplishment.

Sportsmanship: Our athletic community-coaches, players, and parents—participate in such a way that honors God and conveys a positive witness to those around us. We strive to be modest in victory and gracious in defeat. Winning on the scoreboard should be a goal, but losing can often present meaningful learning opportunities.
