High School Athletes
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 during the school day.
The fall season runs from August 24 through November 6, the winter season runs from November 9 through March 12 and the spring season runs from March 15 through May 28. All sessions begin at the high school weight room.
Athletes on a high school team in any season (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 (most teams have one session before school and one session after school). When a season concludes, athletes are encouraged to switch into the available off-season sessions or continue to train in-season with the varsity team until their season concludes.
Athletes who are not in-season (and not in a S&C PE class) are encouraged to participate in the off-season program, which runs on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays when school is in session from 3:45-4:45pm all school year long.
*There is no registration for the off-season or in-season high school training during the school year, but regular attendance is expected to benefit from the program.
*Registration for summer sessions include a registration fee and are offered as one of our “summer camps”.
Middle School Athletes
Holland Christian offers two middle school winter off-season sessions for students in grades 6-8 for student athletes from both HC and ZC to learn to train properly and better prepare for training in high school. Winter I Session A runs on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00-3:45pm November 10 through December 17. Winter I Session B runs on Wednesdays and Fridays from 3:45-5:30pm November 11 through December 18. Winter II Session A runs on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00-3:45pm January 12 through March 4. Winter II Session B runs on Wednesdays and Fridays from 3:45-4:30pm January 13 through March 5. The middle school sessions are free of charge, but students need to be registered (campscui.active.com/orgs/HollandChristianSchool). There is a limit of 40 students/session.
