Parents, a good read and perspective

This is well said. Every play in sports, someone fails. Sometimes it goes unseen but last night, everyone saw it. This man can play the game at the highest level. He is not the first or will he be the last to make a play like this...difference between him and many, his was public.

"For all those parents of youth baseball, let last night's ending to the Phillies/Dodgers be a lesson.
The game is hard. Arguably, the most difficult sport in the world to be consistently good at.
Beyond the mere physical skill aspect, the game is as much if not more mental than physical.
Last night, we saw a professional player in a high pressure moment allow the panic to set in and make a mistake.
He's being chastised by the fans, many of who enjoy the game but don't truly understand how difficult it is.
He was comforted by those around him who truly know the game.
The isolation and aloneness he must have felt in that moment must have been soul crushing.
We've seen multiple physical errors in these playoffs by the people at the top of this game.
The pro players have pressure from thousands who don't know them personally.
Your player can feel that same level of pressure from you because with you it's personal.
So the next time your 12 year old makes a bad throw, boots a grounder in the field or does something dumb on the bases, have some grace and patience and remember it's part of the game."

Congratulations J'Isaiah!

Over 1200 Puyallup School District student-athletes are participating in the fall season in grades 7-12. Schedules of upcoming contests can be found by visiting www.ArbiterLive.com.

Participation in school athletics offers students much more than competition—it helps them grow as individuals. Student-athletes often show stronger attendance, higher academic achievement, and improved graduation rates. Through sports, they develop resilience, responsibility, teamwork, and leadership skills that support success in school and beyond. Athletics also promote health and wellness, build school pride, and create meaningful connections with peers, mentors, and the community. By supporting your child’s involvement, you are helping them gain life lessons that will prepare them for college, careers, and life.

Honoring Russ Picha with a Commendation Award from the state AD association. Thank you, Picha, for your years of service as the Voice of Puyallup HS, and thank you for continuing to serve the PHS community.

First day for high school fall sports and junior high football.
