In addition to our amazing staff and the incredible breadth of competitive opportunities at VCS, we are blessed to be able to offer our students access to athletic facilities similar to those you would find on a college campus. Our commitment to excellence in athletic training is also evident as we continue to provide our students with even greater opportunities for growth through the development of our exciting Human Performance Initiative. It is our goal to meet the unique training needs of each of our student athletes, making the most of their time, talent, and energy. Most importantly, our student-athletes learn that they are part of a bigger picture and have a unique place in God’s incredible plan. VC coaches and mentors are men and women of Christian character who lead by example, intent on teaching valuable life lessons through athletic competition. Our staff recognizes their commitment to the whole individual, and they regularly pray for and with our athletes. The Valley Christian athletic community intentionally emphasizes the truth that all our students’ talents and abilities are gifts from God, designed to bring honor and glory to the name of Christ. It is a privilege to work with such talented young people and exceptional colleagues. We look forward to the honor of working with you as you pursue your dreams and develop your God-given potential.

TESTIMONIALS
"A real highlight for me was winning the CIF/CCS baseball championship my senior year. It feels great to say that I threw a no-hitter in my last high school game to win the championship I had been looking forward to for four years! But I have also learned that athletics is another way of worshipping God and that hopefully I can inspire my teammates… or anyone I can reach out to, so that they can also know Him." (VC student) "I think the most important thing I've learned in VCHS athletics is the athletics theme of my freshman year. The theme was servanthood. It taught me a lot about being a servant to God and to my teammates. Being the person to carry water, or whatever is necessary to help out, really helps build character, and also betters relationships with other players and coaches. I went on to become a co-founder of the school's SOCKs club. This is a club where we volunteer at the Ronald McDonald House, bringing activities to kids and their families recovering from cancer." (VC student) "Our varsity basketball team every year stays overnight in our gymnasium, playing basketball and bonding all through the night. The next morning we wake up early to run hills, and at the top of the mountain we talk about our goals and aspirations for the year. The sports program at Valley Christian truly works to establish the importance of character. The program takes young men and instills them with the values of hard work, discipline, punctuality, selflessness, and service. While these values are evident in players on the basketball team, these values translate to success in our lives off the court, with our families, friends, and in our communities." (VC student) |
