Athletic Mission Statement and Philosophy
Trinity Christian School has become known around the state
for excellence in athletics. During the past Six years, Trinity Christian
School has
produced:
One National Championship Team
Seven State Championship Teams
Seven State Championship Runner-up Teams
Results are important, but Trinity Christian School understands the
real importance of athletics. Athletics teaches discipline, the
importance of hard work, the setting and attaining of worthwhile
goals, responding to authority, self-sacrifice, humility and
composure under pressure. Through athletics, students learn to face
adversity and challenges with a steady eye, a courageous spirit, and
reliance upon the ultimate authority – Jesus Christ.
As part of its commitment to provide a complete educational
experience for the student body, TCS provides diverse opportunities
for athletic involvement for both men and women. The focus of all
TCS sports activities is to cultivate character qualities that
prepare the student for successful Christian living after
graduation. Coaches are committed to modeling Christian virtues both
on and off the athletic field.
TCS is a member of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial
Schools, Division 4A (TAPPS). All schools compete within the
guidelines and abide by rules established by TAPPS. For a complete
schedule of all Trinity Christian School athletic events for the
2010-2011 year, you can review our full online "Athletic
Calendar"
