Homenetmen’s mission is to prepare exemplary and law abiding citizens by providing physical and health education, endowing the mind and soul with the finest spirit of sportsmanship, and developing an understanding of responsibility and honor as they strive for individual and collective excellence.
It is therefore essential for parents, coaches and officials to encourage youth athletes to embrace the values of good sportsmanship.
