Athletics

We consider athletics to be extensions of our classrooms—perfect opportunities to learn about each other better as individuals, to explore and encourage one another’s gifts, and to experience Christian community and life struggles together.

But we also love healthy competition and rejoice in well-executed games and meets, and see them as opportunities to influence sports culture positively for Christ. Our coaches are fellow Christ-followers who love the students and the sports they coach, and who not only thrive on teaching and improving skills, but forming Christian disciples through the structure of sports and life on a team.

Holland Christian competes as a member of the Michigan High School Athletic Association for our regulations and postseason play, and in the Ottawa-Kent Conference in the Black Division for the regular season along with Holland, Hamilton, Zeeland West, Zeeland East, Unity Christian, and Spring Lake.

High School

Athletics are not our main gig as a Christian school, but as parents ourselves, we realize how influential and transformative Christ-following coaches and quality athletic opportunities can be. With 12 boys and 12 girls MHSAA sports offerings like soccer, basketball, swimming, and lacrosse, we’re proud to also offer a variety of non-traditional sports activities like bass fishing, Dutch dance, sailing and trap shooting.

Middle School

We think middle school is a great time to try new things, explore talents, encourage community. Furthermore, we believe that healthy competition, learning to play, striving to win and lose within the rules are all means of learning how to serve God in His kingdom. Towards that end, our coaches seek to develop the athletic gifts of students by stressing commitment to team members, sacrificing self to a larger goal, and graciously accepting both victory and defeat. Our four sports seasons are relatively short to help students identify their abilities, while still encouraging anxiety-free participation!

Middle School Sports

Unified Sports

Our HCS Unified Sports teams, like all Unified Sports teams nationwide, join males and females with intellectual and/or physical disabilities–the official athletes–and students without disabilities who are the partners on the same teams. The idea behind Unified Sports is not only to give kids with special needs a normative experience, but also to use sports as a quick avenue to friendship and understanding.

All Athletics Opportunities

Although athletics are not our main gig as a Christian school, as parents ourselves, we realize how influential and transformative Christ-following coaches and quality athletic opportunities can be. And as education becomes more individualized, our athletics and after school programs are too. Hence, along with our mainstream basketball and volleyball teams, we’ve added things like volleyball for high school boys, coed sailing opportunities, and coed unified bocce ball.

”Teachers are awesome!! They really genuinely care about my high schoolers and it shows by how much they actually like school:) They don’t just teach them, they know them and want to know what is going on in their lives! So thankful for them!
Holland Christian High School parent

”[My daughters] felt heard and respected as individuals, they felt known. Even the girls' coaches have a spiritual perspective that they bring to coaching and team building.
Anita MulderHolland Christian parent

”Holland Christian is more than just a place for school and gaining and education. We have seen and our kids have experienced a level of love and care that goes beyond the classrooms and teachers have become mentors and even friends post graduation. There are always opportunities for kids to try new things--our family has been truly blessed through the arts programs, specifically music (BOC) and theater and also robotics and lacrosse.
Jodi FerlaakHolland Christian parent

”Staff and faculty go the extra mile to really get to know every child, their needs, their likes, their levels, their styles and their hearts. HC sees the true value(s) in every child.
Holland Christian parent

”The teachers genuinely seem so enthusiastic, dedicated to their work and invested in the students. Also, the communication is stellar. We are very appreciative of multiple levels of communication, from the daily announcements, to the monthly newsletters, to the automatic grade updates that come through email. And finally, we really see the school guiding and encouraging godly behavior in the students, from dress code expectations to attitude on the sports field.
