IYHO's Philosophy
The Islander Organization exists to allow young people the opportunity to participate in a competitive league, to allow the players to be involved in an environment that focuses on skill development and team-based responsibilities with the intention of developing within the players a life long love for the game. Our goal is to develop all players on an equal basis based on teaching the game from different perspectives- individual offense and defense, team-based offense and defense and most importantly how players should win or lose with dignity and humility.
In either case, the opportunity to experience and develop " lessons in life " will be in the forefront of our coaches minds.
