Welcome to the Wayland Boosters web site

The Wayland Boosters is a non-profit organization that started over 35 years ago to:

  • Support and encourage the athletic teams of Wayland High School, freshman, junior varsity and varsity, in all phases of inter-scholastic competition; 
  • Recognize and reward excellence in sports including those attributes of character, team spirit and fair play; 
  • Emphasize the development of leadership, sportsmanship and physical and mental well being as the primary benefit of competition versus winning or losing.

WHAT DOES BOOSTERS DO ?

Our members plan and participate in a number of activities to achieve these goals.  We

  • Organize and host the season-ending sports banquets to recognize the dedication and hard work of Wayland High School's athletes and coaches;
  • Provide pins and Wayland H.S. jackets to reward those athletes who have competed at the varsity level; 
  • Acknowledge excellence by giving specific awards to three athletes in each sport, The Booster Award, the Hal Barnett Unsung Hero Award, and the Buzz Bowers Sportsmanship Award 
  • Purchase needed equipment for specific teams and also fund larger projects that benefit the overall athletic program. Examples include an electronic time clock for the swim teams, free weights for the football team, and a contribution towards a new wrestling mat. The renovation of the trainer's room and the purchase of new storage cabinets for team uniforms and equipment are two recent capital projects.

HOW DOES BOOSTERS FUND ITS PROGRAMS?

We can only succeed with financial support from members, Wayland residents and other interested people! 

  • We run an annual membership campaign every fall. A contribution of as little as $25 will make you a Wayland Booster and help support athletics. Over one-half of our budget comes from membership. 
  • In the fall, we run a golf tournament with the help of area merchants and other sponsors. Players contribute by paying a registration fee.
  • Boosters also helps the process to improve our athletic fields by providing improvements from our capital fund.
