Athletic Administration

At Old Plank Christian Academy, athletics is more than competition—it is an extension of our mission to develop Christ-centered leaders who honor God in everything they do. The OPCA Defenders Athletic Program is committed to building character, discipline, teamwork, and excellence both on and off the field of play.

Our student-athletes are challenged to compete with integrity, pursue excellence, and represent Christ through their attitudes, actions, and sportsmanship. Through quality coaching, competitive opportunities, and a supportive school community, we strive to help every athlete reach their full potential academically, athletically, and spiritually.

The Defenders proudly offer a variety of athletic programs for middle school and high school students, providing opportunities for growth, leadership, and lifelong friendships. Whether competing on the court, field, course, or sideline, our athletes are encouraged to embrace hard work, perseverance, and a servant-hearted mindset.

At OPCA Athletics, we believe success is measured not only by wins and championships but by the development of young men and women who are prepared to impact their families, churches, communities, and the world for Christ.

Our Core Values

  • Faith – Glorifying God through athletics

  • Character – Demonstrating integrity, respect, and responsibility

  • Excellence – Pursuing our best in competition and life

  • Teamwork – Building strong relationships and unity

  • Leadership – Developing servant leaders for the future

OPCA Defenders Athletics

One School. One Team. One Defenders Family.
Competing with Purpose. Leading with Character. Honoring Christ.
