A good Sports Program can be an important part of developing a balanced young person. Though we are not trying to shape athletes for college or professional athletics, we are training them in the spiritual values of team work, diligence, perseverance, a positive attitude, and plain-old hard work. If there is something to be learned from sports that can make us into a successful winning adult with character that pleases our Lord Jesus Christ, then we want to teach that to our children. Christian school athletics can be a tool used to that end.
