Are You Ready For Some Football Graduation?
We know you are Football Seniors! You leave your mark as 2019 DAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONS on the Acalanes Field Forever!
It is time for you to tackle new goals, new dreams and new victories!
Dear Seniors, You are in the process of finishing a course you began years ago when your parents enrolled you in kindergarten to begin your educational journey. Your journey has included growth in many areas. The academic challenges met, the social skills developed, and the physical growth seen, are all a part of the bigger picture of the educational process.
You participated in Acalanes football for a variety of reasons. You may have loved the challenge. It could be you liked the camaraderie of being on a champion team. Perhaps you were highly skilled and received a lot of recognition for your efforts. Maybe being on a team was just fun and thrilling, but whatever the case, you participated and were subject to learning all of the discipline and principles that being involved in football teaches. Football is more than just a game; it teaches lessons that the players carry with them long after they’ve hung up their cleats. Teamwork, discipline, perseverance, goal-setting, time management, selflessness, motivation, handling success and moving on from failure top the long list of lessons. Acalanes football also gives each athlete special memories, lifelong friends and coaches who truly care about each one of you.
As a graduating senior athlete, you have been challenged to set your goals high, stretch yourself, and to be industrious in all that you do. You have also been taught that football is a preparation for life and what you learn from being on a team is a microcosm of life. The things your coaches taught you about life are about to begin making sense. You will soon see what they meant, and you will be grateful.
Acalanes football has played an important role in your educational process. Coaches, teachers, and parents have finished their task of training you. Take what you have learned from all of them and make a smooth transition into “the rest of your life”. We wish you the best! Your football family will be cheering for you!
-Dons Love from Your Acalanes Football Family
Once a Don, Always a Don!
Good Luck Dons of 2020!
