Our mission for our student-athletes is to raise them up to be Godly men.  We are building a program based on morals, ethics, and values.  It is our duty for our young men to leave ACS as good standing Christian men who love the Lord with all their heart, mind, and soul.  We work hard on the field and off the field to accomplish this goal.

We have a great strength and conditioning program that enables our young men to get stronger.  Our spring training starts at the beginning of May and concludes with a spring game at the end of May.  We have workouts during the summer months to work on the mental and physical aspects of the game.  Our season starts in August and ends in November. We have a pre-game meal before each game with all the players and cheerleaders.  Each parent brings a dish once a year to feed the team. During these meals, we pray as well as fellowship with one another.

We always strive for excellence in Christ.  We begin and end every practice or game with a prayer.  We also have Committals the day before each game.  Committals involve each player reading a scripture verse that they chose and then tell their “brothers” why they chose it. It is a great team-bonding experience like no other.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord-

   Colossians 3:23

An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules–

   2Timothy 2:5

Physical training is good, but training for Godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come–

   1Timothy 4:8
