South Ridge High School’s athletic program is co-curricular in nature, meaning its primary purpose is to compliment the academic program. The athletic program works cooperatively with other activities and programs to produce responsible citizens in this community.

SRHS athletics will provide the student athlete with the opportunity to develop athletic talents, achieving the highest possible level of competitiveness, without sacrificing the time and energies needed to excel academically, within a setting that allows for character development. Understanding that our athletes, and even our coaches occasionally, will learn lessons through mistakes, we are dedicated to competing with good sportsmanship. This means doing our best and bringing sportsmanship to interscholastic athletics that models exemplary characteristics.

SRHS competes in various interscholastic sports from grades 9 through 12. In girl’s sports, we are members of the Arizona Charter Athletic Association. In boy’s sports, we are associate members of the Arizona Interscholastic Association.

Students participating in sports must maintain a C average with no failing grades in order to play. Students must obtain and complete an athletic packet located in the front office and provide proof of insurance and a passed physical examination before participating in sports.
