ATHLETICS

The Wilberforce School was founded to provide a distinctively Christian education characterized by academic excellence and joyful discovery within a classical framework.

This is our school's mission, and athletic programming at Wilberforce exists to support this mission while developing graduates who serve others, lead well, humbly learn, and confidently live lives worthy of the gospel. As a distinctively Christian school, we seek coaches who view athletics as an opportunity to mentor and train young athletes, not just in physical ways, but in ways that impact their spiritual lives. As coaches and athletes, we strive in the pursuit of excellence, whether in the classroom, on the pitch, or in the pool. 

Joyful discovery is also an important element of athletics at Wilberforce. Just as a science lab points to truths about our creator or a Humane Letters dialogue unwraps truths aligned with scripture, so do athletics reveal truth about our character. Athletics offer an opportunity for students to prove to themselves, most of all, that they exhibit the strength and courage that noble men and women throughout the ages have demonstrated before them.
