Welcome to YCS Eagles Athletics

At YCS, we strongly value developing well-rounded individuals, prioritizing their spiritual walk with Christ and their academic and personal growth. Providing athletic opportunities for our students offers them the ability to participate in sports in a Christian environment while developing physical and social skills outside the classroom setting. Participating in sports within our region allows the YCS community to connect and build relationships with those around us.

Having an intentional athletics program builds lasting memories and strong relationships, teaches important life skills, and allows student-athletes to include their faith in other areas of their life.

 

For our 2024-25 season, YCS Eagles fielded 11 teams across 5 sports.  Thank you to our 13 school, parent, and community coaches who dedicated many hours to making our 2024-25 season a success!
