A Private School with Athletics Near Foley, Alabama

Central Christian School has been educating students in central Baldwin County since 1970, and our student athletics program has participated in the Panhandle Christian Conference for more than twenty years.  Just as we provide a high-quality, Christ-focused education, we endeavor to guide our student athletes to develop Christ-like character and a positive attitude both on and off the field or court.  

We believe that competitive sports can be valuable to our students in several ways.  Team sports at Central Christian School can help your child do all of the following:


Overcome Challenges

Competition teaches students how to handle challenges.  We all face challenges in life, and student sports allow ample opportunity to learn how to deal with that reality.  Our student athletes develop strategies to recognize, meet, and overcome challenges with a spirit of positivity.  They learn how to both win and lose graciously.

Engage in Teamwork

Student athletes learn to work together as a team.  They make a commitment to give their best effort every day.  They build friendships and support their teammates, in both the game and their daily lives.  Learning to cooperate with others is a skill that serves students well for their entire lives.

Promote a Healthy Lifestyle

Athletics can help set young people on the path to a healthier lifestyle.  Students who get into the habit of exercising regularly are more likely to continue that into their adult lives.  Exercise can also help reduce stress and is a great outlet for the boundless energy of youth!  

Have Fun!

Never underestimate the importance of fun!  A student who enjoys extracurricular activities (like sports) at their school is more motivated to attend and put forth their best effort.  Friendships made on the court or field carry over into the classroom.  School sports help create a sense of school spirit– not to mention so many happy memories that your child will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
