Sports Programs
Faith Christian Academy presently offers the following sports
programs:
Boys’ Basketball
Girls’ Basketball
Girls’ Volleyball
Cheerleading
Students in grades 1-6 may participate in the youth sports program
while students in grades 7-12 may participate in the junior varsity
and varsity programs. Participation can strengthen character,
enhance the ability to work with others as a team, offer opportunity
for physical development, and promote school spirit and glorify
God by manifesting our Christian faith and behavior to others.
In everything we do, Christian Character and faith should be
shown and deportment should be according to Biblical standards.
Perhaps nowhere does the Christian get a better opportunity
to exemplify Biblical standards of self-control and Spirit-controlled
deportment than in athletic competition. |
