Coaching-Pursuing athletic excellence through faith, virtue, and knowledge.

God has given each of us special skills, and this is especially true for sports coaches. Coaches teach students how to play the games by the rules, but also in a Godly way-the way of a good sportsman. Through training the students condition their bodies for the games and they expand their minds through teamwork and leadership, things that prepare them for growing as adults.

"Similarly, if anyone competes as an athlete, he does not receive the victor's crown unless he competes according to the rules." -2 Timothy 2:5

To be a coach at St. David's School, you must be a follower of Jesus Christ with a desire to serve in a Christian learning environment. You must be well versed in the sport that you desire to coach and must have playing experience at the high school level or above.
