WELCOME TO THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT OF THE EAST PAULDING RAIDERS

EAST PAULDING ATHLETICS

Welcome to the Athletic Program of the East Paulding Raiders!

We are truly blessed here at East Paulding High School to have exceptional teacher-coaches, excellent facilities, and an uncommon community spirit and support. Our student-athletes are committed to reaching their full potential through strenuous practices and intensive strength, speed, and conditioning programs. We strive to reflect an unsurpassable effort and team play in all our competitive games. We believe the intangible qualities of unselfishness, class, poise, loyalty, and "ONE RAIDER FAMILY" are essential in developing our student-athletes. The athletic programs at East Paulding High School are "Committed to building and maintaining a Tradition of Excellence."

Mission Statement

The Athletic Department's Misson focuses on the development of the "whole" student-athlete. We will impact young people's character, academics, and athletic development in a team atmosphere. The goal is to operate a program at its highest level with the belief that great teams will follow. We believe that all three components are essential to the programs we serve. Student-Athletes will leave East Paulding a Champion for Life!

There are four languages of successful athletic programs; Structure, Discipline, Love, & Winning:

1. Structure: Structure does not exist without Discipline.
2. Discipline: Discipline is not effective without Love.
3. Love: Coach them "HARD" and Love them "HARD." When in doubt, always default to Love.
4. Winning: Winning is significant but not sustainable without Structure, Discipline, and Love.

For questions or concerns regarding East Paulding's Athletic Programs please email the Athletic Director, Mr. Reynolds or call (770) 445-5100.
