  • In order for your student(s) to participate in any athletic event at Faith Christian School, there are a few policies you and your athlete must be aware of. Please review the following policies and sign below stating that you have read and agree to abide by these policies.

    Eligibility Policy:

    A) Before an athlete can participate in a sport, he/she must be cleared by the Athletic Department. The following items must be completed in order for the athlete to be cleared.

    1.     Complete an athletic release packet with all necessary signatures.  

    2.     Have a current sports physical on file with the Athletic Department.

    3.     Pay all athletic fees to the athletic office.  Fees are due one week after the roster is completed.

    NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE ON THE ABOVE!!!

    B) Student-athletes must have at least a 2.00 G.P.A. and no F’s at each 6 week grading period to be eligible. Students who are ineligible will be placed on probation until the next progress report.  During this probationary period a student-athlete may practice but may not participate in games.  If at the next progress report the student-athlete has earned a 2.00 G.P.A. and has no F’s then they will return to full team status.  This probation can only be used once per year.

    C) Any athlete that misses more than one period will be ineligible to participate in that day’s practice or games, unless otherwise approved by the Athletic Director.  Missing a practice or game for an excused appointment (doctor, dentist, etc.) must be pre-arranged with the coach. Be respectful of your team; let your coach know at least a week ahead of time and try to schedule appointments around team functions.

    Discipline Policy:

    An athlete who fails to complete a sport season will be ineligible to participate on any other school sport team until the conclusion of the sport season from which the athlete has withdrawn and will be ineligible for the first third of the athletes next sport.  This does include playoffs. This restriction will not apply if the athlete withdraws from a sport because of a verified medical reason.

    There will be a period of one week from the date an athlete first joins a team during which an athlete may drop a sport without penalty. A refund of athletic fees will not be available after the one week time period.

    Participating in athletics at Faith Christian School is a privilege.  Student athletes who receive a detention will not be excused from detention to participate in a practice or game. Each individual case will be determined by the Athletic Director.

    • All team members are required to participate in game day dress as designated by the Athletic Department.

    • Team apparel and shoes will be worn as designated by coaches.

    • Uniforms may not be worn to school unless approved by the Athletic Department.

    LIABILITY RELEASE 

    BOTH THE STUDENT & PARENT/GUARDIAN MUST READ CAREFULLY AND SIGN BELOW

    It is my understanding that participation in any sport can be dangerous and involves MANY RISKS OF INJURY. Dangers and risks include, but are not limited to, serious neck and spinal injuries, paralysis, brain damage, injury to all internal organs, bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and other aspects of the muscular skeletal system, and impairment to general health and well-being, to engaging in business, social and recreational activity and in general to enjoyment of life. Because of the dangers of participating in the athletics I recognize the importance of following coaches’ instructions regarding playing techniques, training and other team rules, etc., and agree to obey such instructions.

    With participation in FCS athletics, I understand that I assume all of the risks associated with the sport and agree to hold harmless Faith Christian School, its employees, agents, representatives, coaches and volunteers from any and all liability. Insurance: FCS provides excess medical insurance for any member athlete participation in FCS sanctioned practice or event. If the athlete has other
    medical coverage, theirs will be applied first, followed by FCS insurance. If the athlete
    has no other coverage, the FCS policy becomes primary subject to terms and conditions of the policy.

    I,         (Parent/guardian) of       (student) have read the above warning and release and understand its terms. I understand that all sports can involve MANY RISKS OF INJURY, including, but not limited to those risks outlined above. In order to participate I agree to hold harmless Faith Christian School and its employees, agents, representatives, coaches, and volunteers from any and all liability, actions, causes of actions, debts, claims or demands of every kind and nature which may arise by, or in connection with, participation of my child in any activities related to the Faith Christian School. The terms hereof shall serve as a release from my heirs, estate, executor, administrator, assignees, and for all members of my family.

  • Please read the following and sign below to identify that you (the parent and student) agree to each of these statements.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to develop and pursue a relationship with Jesus Christ and conduct themselves in a Christ like manner.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to practice the proper ideals of sportsmanship, ethical conduct and fair play.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to stress the values derived from playing the game fairly.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to show courtesy to visiting teams and officials.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to establish a positive relationship with all opposing fans and players.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to respect the integrity and judgment of all sports officials.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees that Drugs/Alcohol/Steroid use is prohibited by all athletes.  The athlete will be removed from the team immediately and face disciplinary action from the school.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to recognize that the purpose of athletics is to promote the physical, spiritual, mental, moral, social, and emotional well being of the individual athletes.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to abide by the coaches decisions and teams rules. If unable to do so, the parent/athlete is to speak with the coach instead of other players, students or parents.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to advise the coach if there is some reason the athlete cannot attend a team function (practice, game, study hall, etc.). This is to be done prior to the season starting; if during season give at least a week in advance notice.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to not remove a player from a team during the season. Athletics is a huge commitment; your child is part of a team and others depend on him/her. Speak with the coach or the Athletic Director before removing a student from a team.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to support all athletes and to work hard to maintain the unity among players and parents.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to be on time to all team functions (practices, games, study hall, parent meetings, etc.).

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to return all uniforms and equipment within one week after the final contest.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees to not take extended trips (family vacation) during season of competition. When scheduling permits during season of competition for a family trip the FCS parent/athlete also agree to not participate in any extreme activity that may cause the athlete to be unable to continue his/her season. 

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees that no parent, family member, or friend is allowed on the sideline, bench, dugout or locker room during an athletic contest.

    • The FCS parent/athlete agrees that an athletic contest is only a game – not a matter of life and death for the player, coach, school, officials, fans, or community.

    • The FCS parent/athlete understands the late return policy and a student may not miss first period due to a late return from a game.  These games are determined by the Athletic Director.

    We ask that as you are making a decision to play for a FCS sports team you will seriously consider the commitment, discipline and self-sacrifice you are entering into; playing for FCS is a privilege not a right. FCS athletics during your season of competition will be your number one priority, taking precedent over many other commitments. All appointments or social activities should be scheduled around your practices, games and other team functions. As you become a student athlete you will need to be flexible at times for the betterment of your team. Schedules are subject to change and sometimes activities are added. In some cases games need to be rescheduled, so you need to be very careful with over committing during your season of competition. Any special considerations or accommodations will be at the discretion of the head coach and the Athletic Director and should be discussed before the team roster is finalized.

     

  • I have read the preceding statements and fully agree to abide by these guidelines of proper conduct and ethics.

  • We, the undersigned, understand and agree that Faith Christian School desires to provide a safe and enjoyable time for all students. However, we understand and agree that accidents can still happen. We understand that there are risks/dangers involved with participation in any off–campus trip and its associated activities. In consideration of our children being allowed to participate in the events, we assume responsibility for risks associated with the travel and activities.

    Without reservation, we agree to hold harmless Faith Christian School, its affiliated organizations, employees, agents, and representatives, including volunteer and other drivers, from any and all claims arising from their children’s participation.

    We understand that our assumption of risk does not apply to claims of intentional (criminal) misconduct or gross negligence by the school, its employees, or volunteers. If such circumstances are proved in a court of law, we agree that the school can assume no financial liability beyond its actual liability insurance policy in force.

    We understand that before driving, all volunteer drivers must provide copies of a valid state driver’s license, vehicle registration, and proof of vehicle insurance with minimum liability coverage of $100,000/$300,000. We understand that the driver’s vehicle insurance is the primary coverage.

    Here at FCS we desire to travel as a team to and from our athletic events. We always encourage our families to allow the student athlete to travel with the team.
