General Philosophy
As Christian parents and teachers, it is our responsibility to encourage our children to use all their gifts and abilities, and to provide opportunities for them to do so. Participation in athletics is one way for children to use their athletic abilities to God’s glory. The emphasis of our athletic program at Trinity is to not only promote Christian fellowship with other schools, but also to aid Christian students in learning the skills necessary to compete with other young people. Some of these skills include teamwork, organization, decision making, dedication, commitment, discipline, and stewardship of healthy bodies. Our children can be taught how to “do” sports in community programs, but only we can teach them the God-pleasing way to do it. Therefore it is our sincere desire that the benefits they reap from our athletic programs will prove favorable to their future as Christian young people growing up in a very competitive world.
“I believe that God made me and all that exists…my body and soul…my mind and all my abilities.” -Explanation to the First Article
Our athletic programs are designed for all children beginning in the fifth grade (depending on the sport) and continuing through their eighth grade year. If we do not have enough participation for a given sport, or no coach approved by the Athletic Director, that sport may be dropped for that season.
