 Athletic Director Carson Peterson 678-405-2351 Perimeter Athletics Mission: To assist in training children to practice Christ-like attitudes and exhibit godly character through the use of athletic gifts. Perimeter Athletics Purpose 1. As God has gifted students with athletic as well as academic and artistic skills, He calls coaches to help children develop their skills to use for His glory and honor, disciplining their bodies as the temple of the Holy Spirit. (I Cor.6:19, 20) 2. As in the covenant school, students are best trained and coached by godly, mature adults who can best equip them in the young, impressionable years. This process is enhanced by fellow teammates who share rather than resist the same biblical approach to sports and respect for authority. (Prov. 3:14, 20) 3. As all gifts and skills need an outlet for expression, proper competition is the venue for our student athletics. As Eric Liddell, Olympic champion and Christian missionary, stated: “When I run, I feel His pleasure.” Competition with the purpose of glorifying God leads to respect and relationship, not the destruction, of one’s opponent. (I Cor.9:24, 25) 4. By exemplifying a Christ-like approach to sport and competition, coaches and students have the opportunity for outreach to other teams and competitors both in the example they set, the relationships they form, and the things they say. Plus, they are being grounded in godly principles and habits in sport that will prepare them for being salt and light on teams where coaches and teammates may not embrace Christ or biblical principles. (Matt. 5:16) Perimeter competes in the North Atlanta Metro League. |
