Crossroads homeschool sports program is one of the oldest and largest in the nation. Established 25 years ago it is committed to excelling in competition while developing people as athletes and believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. Many ask if we are a competitive program or a Christian program. We are both. Many homeschool families find our sports program as a great opportunity for community and athletics

For physical training is of some value,

but godliness has value for all things,

 holding promise for both the present life

and the life to come.

1 Timothy 4:8
