WCHSA is a Christian organization providing home-schooled young people with the opportunity to participate in organized competitive sports and to use the experience to build Godly character, create friendships, instill dedication and commitment to personal and team goals, foster spiritual growth, and above all to honor Jesus Christ as a Godly witness. Our sports teams are assembled based on the interest level of homeschooling families in the Washington County area, and the availability of local games and resources.
We typically offer the following sports teams each year:
Basketball: Boys and Girls, grades 5 through high school
Cross-Country: Boys and Girls, grades 4 through high school
Track: Boys and Girls, grades 4 through high school
Volleyball: Girls, grades 5 through high school
It is our aim to display the Glory of God through organized sports by:
Honoring and glorifying God with our minds and bodies, demonstrating a steadfast commitment to Jesus Christ and His Work
Supporting families in their efforts to raise godly children, teach Christian principles, and encourage Godly character
Supporting the body of Christ in the tasks of discipleship and communicating the gospel
Deepening our interpersonal relationships as we prepare for a life of Christian ministry
Experiencing the transforming power of the Gospel by knowing the beauty of Christ and seeing his glory made visible to others
Faithfully serving Christ with our gifts and abilities
Displaying the infinite value of Christ to others through our work, play, competition, and in everyday life
Commitment to Spiritual and Physical Youth Protection:
WCHSA will make every reasonable effort to meet each player’s spiritual and physical needs.
Some ways we hope to accomplish this are by:
Interviewing each coach and requiring that they express a clear profession of faith in Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior
Requiring at least two board-approved adults at each practice session; for boys, at least one of which will be an adult man — and for girls, at least one of which will be an adult woman
Encouraging appropriate attitude, behavior, and actions during all practices and games
Discouraging spectators from attending practice times to reduce player distraction and allow players and coaches to better focus on team objectives.
