Children can play sports in a lot of places. So why does Pilgrim offer an athletic program? Unlike many leagues, Pilgrim teams are focused on the personal growth that comes from playing sports with a team. Our teams are one more place students can learn to practice their faith in their everyday lives.

 

Pilgrim students are encouraged to participate in school sports teams for a variety of reasons. On our teams, we believe they can learn Christian sportsmanship, respect, trust, cooperation, and leadership. Of course, they build their physical fitness and learn the skills, rules, and strategies of their sport, but the emphasis at Pilgrim is firmly placed on students developing their God-given talents for his glory!

 

In addition to the sports listed below, our 5^th-8^th grade basketball players also compete in the Lutheran Elementary Schools Tournament in February, which includes schools from five states.
