Holland Christian partners with ETS Zeeland to offer year round performance training for all athletes. Our goal is for athletes to be at their physical best to compete at their highest level in their sport by the end of their season and to reduce the risk of injury along the way. Athletes enrolled in a strength and conditioning physical education course can fulfill both their in-season and out-of-season expectations during the semester they are enrolled and participating in the class.
The fall season runs from the beginning of school through November 8, the winter season runs from November 11 through March 7 and the spring season runs from March 10 through June 6. All sessions begin at the high school weight room.
Athletes on a high school fall team (and not in a S&C PE class) have two 45 minute in-season training sessions with their team/program as part of their practice (typically one before school and one after school). If their season concludes before November 8, they can switch into the fall off-season program.
Athletes not on a fall team (and not in a S&C PE class) are expected to participate in the fall off-season program, which runs on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays when school is in session from 3:45-4:45pm. There is no registration for the off-season training, but regular attendance is expected to benefit from the program.
