ABOUT HCA ATHLETICS

The purpose of the Heritage Christian Academy Athletic Program is to use the tool of athletic competition to encourage students in developing a Christ-like attitude and lifestyle. With the expectation that our student athletes will exhibit Christian character on and off campus, we desire for their athletic participation to teach them the value of team effort above self-glorification. The success of our program must be measured by the quality of the young people that we produce and not just our win-loss record. Every team that plays, plays to win; however, winning is not our primary goal. It is our goal to use sports for the glory of God and, in doing so, to train student athletes with the proper perspective on these great activities.
