CKCA athletics

Central Kansas Christian Academy is proud to offer our students numerous opportunities to get involved with athletic programs. In addition to physical education during the school day, we also offer extra-curricular sports teams for those who wish to participate.
Boys and girls basketball teams are organized for students in 3rd through 6th grades. Cheerleading is available for girls 4th through 8th grades. Other activities such as volleyball, track and field, football, and others are available for students in 7th and 8th grades through Hoisington Middle School. You can read more about each of these athletic programs below.


3-6th Grade basketball
Boys and girls basketball teams are organized for students in 3rd through 6th grades. Sign-up for these sports activities takes place each fall after school starts, and practices begin in September. Each student is responsible for paying a sign-up fee and for taking care of the uniform they will check out. Players also receive a t-shirt as part of their registration fee. Practices are held 1-2 days per week, and games are organized against other schools in the area. The program changes a bit from year to year, but the primary goal is to give students an opportunity to build fundamental skills, make memories, and learn from the team sport. Our current coaches are Ethan and Ashlie Thomas, assisted by Scott Beahm and a student team manager.

4-8th Grade Cheer
Students in 4th through 8th grades are invited to participate in our cheerleading team. Cheerleaders are responsible for team spirit during basketball games, as well as performing special half-time shows. Cheerleading is occasionally opened up to younger grades for special clinics and camps. Sign-up for the cheerleading team happens in the spring for the following school year. Each student is responsible for paying a sign-up fee and for taking care of the uniform they will check out. Cheerleaders also receive a t-shirt as part of their registration fee. Practices are held 1-2 days per week.

7-8th Grade Partnership
CKCA has a sports agreement with Hoisington Middle School for 7th and 8th grade students, allowing them the opportunity to stay in a positive, Christian environment for academics while still having the option to participate in a variety of sports! For the upcoming school year, CKCA intends to offer transportation services from CKCA to Hoisington Middle School for daily practices. With eligible grades, our 7th and 8th grade students can participate in football, basketball, volleyball, tennis, track, baseball, or softball.
We believe that sports are an important part of our children's lives and can be a way to glorify God through our athletic gifts. Sports help develop many skills that carry over into adulthood. Help us build the future of CKCA by giving your child two additional years of CKCA's top-notch education while still getting the extra curricular experiences pre-teens crave.
