MSSA Athletics
MSSA’s Athletic Department has consciously developed a program to promote competitive youth sports participation beginning at the Lower Elementary Level (LE1). We encourage and support multiple sport athletes. The framework behind the athletic program is to foster sports skills, physical fitness, performance, character, teamwork, leadership development, self-confidence, resilience, and fun in a productive environment designed for development and progression. Competitive sports programs are lead by coaches trained in youth development techniques. Our athletic program aspires to provide our student-athletes with tools that will carry on with them for a lifetime. The athletic program is committed to providing opportunities for all interested students. As such, all players registered before the deadline for each sport are guaranteed to be rostered on a team.

San Antonio Christian Athletic League (S.A.C.A.L.)
