Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

Welcome to the BCSS Athletics Department!
The primary objective of the Bill Crothers Secondary School Athletics Department is to maximize participation in healthy active living & sport through co-curricular and extra-curricular involvement. This is done by aligning with the principles of Canadian Sport For Life and the Long term Athlete Development model with in-school programming. Programs, teams and clubs at BCSS are aligned with one of three streams; High Performance, Competitive for Life and Active for Life.
High Performance
This stream of programming is designed for the athlete who has serious aspirations to train and compete at the next level, i.e. National Team or University. This competition structure is typically differentiated from typical high school sport in that the season may be longer and practices may be more in-depth and incorporate regular strength and conditioning sessions. Only some sports are able to fit into this model based on the length and intensity of the athletes’ out of school sport commitment.
Competitive for Life
Competitive for Life: Targeted at the student-athlete who is multisport focused and loves to play, this stream competes in the traditional high school competitive model. Competitive seasons are approximately 2-4 months long and practices are approximately twice a week. Note: Student-athletes that attend BCSS are not eligible to compete in their primary sport in this stream. To learn more refer to By-law 5, Section 4, subsection (i) of the Ontario Federation School Athletic Association’s By-laws.
Active for Life
This stream of participation is for the individual who embraces healthy active living as a lifestyle. Programming includes attending; yoga classes, open weight lifting activities, spin classes, indoor rowing as well as the BCSS intramural program operated by the senior sport management PHE class. Commitment to these activities is based on each individuals’ personal preference.
