Athletic Philosophy

Cypress Christian School involves its student-athletes in interscholastic sports in order to, first and foremost, glorify and honor God with the talents and abilities He has given. We also believe athletics is a great tool to build Christian character, teach discipline, and to learn to face adversity and challenges with a steady eye, a courageous spirit, and reliance upon the ultimate authority, Jesus Christ. Athletics is a form of worship and our number one goal is building men and women of Godly character in our athletic programs.  While each sport is unique in how it carries out our philosophy all of our sports follow a biblical model for competing.

Biblical Athletics is Competing

• By the Power of God
• According to the Word of God
• For the Glory of God

Excellence in Competition

If we are going to worship God through athletics then we must pursue excellence at all times.

• We must strive to put the best team on the field or court with the goal of exceeding our potential as individuals and as a team.
• We will strive for excellence as coaches by teaching solid fundamentals, building leaders, and developing the best offensive and defensive schemes to fit our personnel. 
• We will strive for excellence as players by giving our best and encouraging others to give their best at all times. 
• We will strive for excellence as fans by modeling Christ in promoting an environment that is rich in sportsmanship.

Taking the Challenge

We are “Taking the Challenge” as we head into an even more exciting and incredible school year. God has been working to put everyone and everything into His perfect plan.

God’s Word provides all the challenges we need to build our student athletes up to be prepared to take their game to the next level and to take their place in the world as His servants. This year we are focusing on Philippians 4:8, “Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable – if there is any moral excellence and if there is any praise – dwell on these things.” As a coaching staff, we desire to grow each student athlete in every area.

The success of Cypress Christian athletics is largely dependent on daily commitment by its coaches, parents, and athletes to grow both spiritually and physically. Therefore, success cannot be measured solely by looking at the scoreboard. As we go through this year, each person will be able to see every level of success we meet.

Warrior Athletics is ready and we are “Taking the Challenge.” Join us as we seek to be our best for Him.
