Valders High School Athletics comes with high expectations. The great tradition and pride of the Valders community and athletics is nearly tangible. One of the first lessons our athletes get is not to try to live up to expectations but rather work as hard as possible to achieve the goals set and the rest will take care of itself.

Fourteen sports are offered by our high school with the swim teams and gymnastics team being co-op situations that allow for more opportunity for participants in those sports . We are grateful for all of the opportunities our kids are offered and are fortunate to have such a caring, experienced, devoted coaching staff. Our student-athletes strive for excellence both in and out of the classroom. We work hard to provide opportunities for these student-athletes to maximize their potential in each sport, promote athletes to play multiple sports, value the concept of teamwork by being a valuable team member and teammate, learn to prioritize within their life, live a healthy life by making good choices about what they put into their bodies as well as how they condition and build/maintain strength. 

We are always proud of our fan support and hope that our community remains as faithful and passionate about its school, the programs, and the wonderful students that make-up the athletic teams for years to come. I look forward to seeing you at one of our many events.  

 Go Vikes!
