Champions' Culture

 

 

The Pewamo-Westphalia community has always been one that has loved its high school sports and for that we are fortunate.  From great kids to great coaches to great parents we are blessed.  Undoubtedly, the past year and half has seen some changes.  We’ve gotten a new athletic director in Mr. Todd Simmons and several new coaches.  With him, Coach Simmons brings his vision of a “Champions’ Culture” to P-W. 

On the surface it looks like the intention is to just win a lot of games and trophies.  Historically, the Pirates have been on the winning side of things more often than not, but a “Champions’ Culture” is about more than winning.  A Champion is someone with character, confidence, focus, determination, leadership, will-power and resiliency.  A Champion sets goals and then tears down walls to reach them.  A Champion is invincible in his own mind.  No feat is impossible.  People want to be around a Champion.  He or she possesses a mindset, an attitude that allows the accomplishment of anything.

A Champion is a Leader.  A person is not a Champion because they win.  A person wins because they are first a Champion.  Champions are successful in all aspects of life beyond the court, field, or weight room.  A Champion might not be the most athletic or the best on the team.  A Champion might not even be an athlete at all.  They grow up to have successful careers and loving families because they do the right things when nobody is watching. 

The vision of Pewamo-Westphalia Athletics is to create Champions out of every student that walks through the door.  Not everyone will become a superstar athlete, but many will reach goals that others thought were impossible.  More importantly they will become Champions for life.  Wins will also come as we do the right things, and winning is fun, but you must become a Champion first.
