Athletic Information
The UFCA Athletic Department strives to teach students how to live, lead, and think as Christians based upon a biblical worldview. UFCA endeavors to give students a wide variety of opportunities to use their God-given talents through athletic competition. UFCA will retain Christ-honoring men and women who will mentor, coach and challenge student-athletes through physical, mental and spiritual conditioning. These men and women will understand that their influence goes beyond competition and well past the sports season; they are developing life-long success skills. Therefore, their leadership and lifestyle will set the bar high for the student-athlete to achieve. The coach-athlete relationship, athletic skills, spiritual development and interpersonal growth developed through athletics are all required in the life of a maturing believer and will stay with the student-athlete beyond his time at UFCA and into adulthood. The student-athlete will experience great joy and disappointment in victory and defeat throughout his athletic tenure. Their faith in Christ will help them understand the purpose of both. Student-athletes will endeavor to have a positive impact on our local community. The Athletic Department will continue to strive for excellence in every facet of athletics including continual improvement and expansion of athletic facilities which will enhance the attraction to both athletics and UFCA.
