BRCS ATHLETICS
Compete With Purpose.
At Blue Ridge Christian School, athletics is about more than the game. Student-athletes are challenged to develop their God-given abilities, pursue excellence, grow in character, and honor Christ in the way they compete.
MORE THAN A GAME
More Than the Score.
Competition provides an incredible classroom for life.
Through athletics, students learn to work hard, respond to adversity, lead with humility, encourage others, and put the needs of the team before themselves.
At BRCS, we want our athletes to pursue excellence—not because their performance defines them, but because they have been given gifts worth developing and a greater purpose for using them.
“Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
1 Corinthians 10:31

SPORTS AS WORSHIP
Play Freely. Compete Fully. Honor God.
Our identity is not determined by the scoreboard, playing time, statistics, wins, or losses.
It is rooted in Christ.
Sports as worship is a transformative approach to athletics. We recognize that God is the author and giver of all things and that we receive our talents and identity from Him. This idea is integrated through our entire athletic program. Through team devotions, team building activities, and the memorization of The Truth (shown below), all of our teams are equipped with the foundation to live out their faith on and off the field.
IDENTITY
Know Who You Are.
Our identity isn’t determined by the scoreboard, playing time, statistics, or performance. It is rooted in being a child of God.
PURPOSE
Know Why You Compete.
Athletic ability is a gift. Students learn to develop that gift with excellence and use it to honor God.
FREEDOM
Give Your Best.
When performance no longer determines identity, athletes are free to compete wholeheartedly, respond to adversity, and pursue excellence.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Truth
You are free to bring all of your heart, soul, mind and strength to whatever you are doing for the honor and glory of God.
It’s not about you.
It’s not about the activity.
It’s not even about being perfect.
It’s about honoring God.
You are free to succeed.
You are not defined by what happens to you or what you do.
You are defined as a child of God.
You are prepared for this.
