The philosophy of St. Petersburg Christian School's athletic department is to provide a Christian environment for student athletes as they participate in competitive athletics. Careful instruction and guidance in sports techniques, strategies and safety provide opportunities for athletes to develop their skills while building good character and sportsmanship. |
SPCS's athletic director and staff of qualified coaches draw from their experiences as they lead a broad scope of athletic programs for our athletes. The coaches serve as strong Christian role models, encouraging Christian principles and self-discipline in all facets of competition and practices. Each coach stands ready to provide guidance to students on any area of athletic, academic, personal or spiritual growth.
SPCS expects athletes to place God first, family second and academics before athletics. Student athletes are expected to abide by the eligibility rules and be leaders on and off the playing fields/courts.
