Join us March 11, 6-8 pm for the Winter Athletics Banquet
It is our goal at Portsmouth Christian Academy to provide competitive athletic teams that will represent Christ and our school with pride. Our coaches make every effort to teach not only the rules and skills for each sport, but also the rules and skills necessary for life. Portsmouth Christian Academy involves its student-athletes in interscholastic sports in order to glorify and honor God with the talents and abilities He has given. We believe athletics are a great tool to build Christian character, to teach discipline, and to learn how to overcome adversity and challenges with a courageous spirit. PCA understands the invaluable role athletics can have in developing a student-athlete, and is thus committed to continually strengthening the athletic program.
