The athletic department at Summit Christian School has purposed itself to lead our students/athletes to receive Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. We intend to help our athletes understand that God desires to be involved in every aspect of their lives even in sports. One of the goals of the athletic department is to help educate our athletes as it relates to the character that Christ would have the believer to exemplify in various situations and circumstances. It is our goal to help our athletes mature spiritually, morally, and socially so that they develop into leaders on and off the playing fields. Coaches are equipped to recognize “teaching-moments” so that our student/athletes are being prepared to affect this world for the cause of Christ. We encourage all of our athlete’s to become involved with a biblically based church to ensure that their spiritual development continues outside of Summit Christian School.

We are so very excited about this 2009 – 2010 athletic year, as it promises to be thrilling and electrifying. Our teams are being prepared to exemplify excellence in the classroom and in their respective sport as well. We look forward to seeing you at the games.

Go Fighting Saints!
J.R. Gamble, Athletic Director

GO, FIGHTING SAINTS!  I would like to personally thank you for supporting our athletic program here at Summit Christian School. We are striving for excellence in all things and in all things we desire to bring glory to God. We have high expectations for this athletic year. Our athletes are well trained, extremely focused, and deeply committed to representing Summit Christian School, their families, and God on and off the playing fields.

We look forward to seeing you at the games. Go Fighting Saints!  J.R. Gamble, Athletic Director

Ryan Millner, Tournament Chairperson, congratulates 2nd grader Clay Harris, winner of the Summit Slam KDW TournamentCongratulations to second grader Clay Harris!
All hail the first place winner of the 1st Annual Summit Slam KDW Tournament! Clay made Mrs. Scott’s class proud by catching a 14lb dolphin off Palm Beach.  Many other fish were caught, but Clay’s was the only KDW caught that day.

Thanks to all who participated in this tournament!  We had a blast!  I look forward to having it again next year, so all of you fishermen out there, get ready for the 2nd Annual Summit Slam!


Summit Christian School has built a brand new weight room facility for our athletic and physical education department. This facility is much more spacious and conducive to meeting all of the differing needs of our students/athletes. We are proud to provide a facility from which all of our students may benefit. Although the facility is ready to utilize, there a a few areas of it that we need to complete, especially the "Team Room". This room will need to be floored with rubber interlocking tiles that can absorb the pounding of cleats. We also intend to build individual lockers that each athlete can hang their uniforms in and lock their personal belongings in a personal lock box. One of our heart's desires is to put a sound system in and throughout the facility so that our athletes can enjoy Christian tunes as they work out and prepare for competition.

On behalf of everyone at Summit Christian School, we would like to say thank you to all who donated their time, treasures, and talents in building this wonderful facility. If you would like to provide assistance in completing the facility, please contact our Athletic office.



God created this day for gain, not loss.
Success, not failure.
Positive actions, not negative thoughts.

O Lord inspire us with desire for greatness.
To wisely use these gifts and talents you have so generously given to us.
They are tools to be used up,
not treasures to be stored up.

Create in us the right attitude to excel in the classroom and life.
The attitude that says "I can reach deeper inside myself".

The firm belief in God, ourselves, our families,
our coaches and our teammates.

The enduring commitment to persevere.
To never quit no matter what the score,
and to never give up, no matter what the odds.

Please be patient with us as our website is continually being updated
and check back frequently as changes are made daily.
