The Vineland High School All-Sports Booster Club's Annual Banquet will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, June 7, at the Savoy Inn, Landis Avenue and Union Road. All Vineland High School senior scholar/athletes will be honored at this time and scholarships will be awarded. The Hall of Fame inductees are: Robert Allen, Richard Bostwick, and Heather DeHainaut. Frank Guaciaro will be honored posthumously. Tickets for this event are $25 and available by calling Nancy O'Brien at (856) 691-5345. No one will be admitted without a ticket. The organization was founded in 1986 to support VHS athletes. Funding for the banquet and scholarships are raised through the operation of concession stands manned by Booster Club members at football, basketball and wrestling events and an occasional fund raiser as needed.
The Athletic Department at Vineland High School is proud of the accomplishments of the Class of 2009 and eagerly looking forward to the start of the 2009-2010 school year. The Athletic Department has been working on schedules for our student-athletes in the seasons ahead and our focus was directed to three goals:
- create schedules that are very competitive;
- place our student-athletes in high profile venues; and
- schedule our games in a way that will connect our athletic program to the community as much as possible and increase attendance for as many of our contests as possible.
The Athletic Department at Vineland High School takes great pride in the high level of athleticism of the young people on our teams. But we are most proud of the sportsmanship that our student-athletes display while participating in their individual games and meets. The coaching staff at Vineland High School also devotes a great deal of time and effort into building and continuing their program’s success. It is also a goal of the Athletic Department that we, as a whole, participate in local service projects to give back to the community that has given so much to our student athletes.
This year, the Athletic Department had more Athletic Events aired on Channel 9 (formerly Channel 13) on the Comcast Cable TV Network than ever before.
The Athletic Department's, “Coach’s Corner” talk show, completed its second season this year, providing an in-depth look at each sport through interviews with the coaches. These half-hour programs were augmented with video and graphics to give viewers as much information as possible about the student athletes and their accomplishments.
Often, there was an “Athlete of the Week” award presentation, and several times the program moved out of the studio to show student-athletes signing college letters of intent, as well as share vital information about the involvement of the school guidance department, and where and how to access NCAA clearing house data.
In 2009-2010, the Athletic Department and VPS Broadcasting will again be working together on a daily basis to ensure the greatest possible local TV coverage for our student-athletes.
The program is run by Mr. Don Robbins, Supervisor of P.E., Intramurals & Athletics K-12, Telephone (856) 794-6800 ext. 2514

Volunteered with the "Challenger League" at North Vineland Little League on Saturday May, 24th.The Athletic Department's website has been totally re-constructed and continues to improve. During the 2008-09 school year, a new “Hall of Fame” section of the Athletic Web Page was created by the district's webmaster, Joni Kane. Ms. Kane works in the VPS Technology Department under the supervision of Steve Dantinne, Supervisor of Technology. The athletic website is user friendly and full of information that we hope is helpful to our student athletes, parents, and members of the community.
Looking to the future with excitement and optimism while still rooted in the deep tradition that over 130 years of graduating classes have worked so hard to create during their time at Vineland High School, it is the opinion of the Vineland High School’s Athletic Department that the State of our Department is healthy, growing, and always focused on creating great opportunities for our student athletes.
