Junior High School Athletic Program
Overview
At Grace Brethren, we believe that sports are a microcosm of life. If you can be successful in the discipline of athletics, you can be successful in life. Competition will inevitably reveal the heart and character of an individual. Sports serve as an instrument in athletes lives to allow them to learn who they are while providing an opportunity to make corrections as they seek to imitate Christ. Athletics at Grace Brethren is a tool that we are proud to offer for the purpose of furthering our students relationships with Christ. We desire that athletics will serve as the platform for growth in each athletes relationship with their God, their family, their christian brothers and sisters, and the world. More than anything we desire that God would be honored through the arena of athletics.
Coaching
The primary goal and job of our coaches is to teach our athletes to love God and people. Sports is not just about winning and losing but about teaching young men and women life skills that will enable them to serve their God, family, church and community more effectively. All of our coaches share this common goal and seek to achieve it through the integration of Biblical principles within their specific disciplines. Grace Brethren coaches challenge their athletes to be successful on the field and in the classroom. Coaches strive to see their student-athletes be successful students meeting the rigorous course-work and standards of Grace Brethren Junior High School. As Junior High coaches teaching the basics of each sport is critical. The athletes are at a critical age in developing the fundamentals necessary to compete at the CIF level in high school. This idea of starting with the basics is crucial to the development of our athletes within Grace Brethren Junior High School.
