2026-2027 Athletics

Mature, Godly leadership is a lifestyle and not isolated to the classroom or within the walls of education. At Christ Lutheran School we train students to apply leadership skills to all areas of their lives. This includes the athletic arena.
It is our privilege to offer an athletic program at Christ Lutheran School that is committed to training athletes both spiritually and physically. The goal of our athletic program is to train our children to glorify God as Christian athletes. We strive to honor God through our words and actions in every situation we face.
To support this goal, Christ Lutheran School participates in the Albuquerque Parochial Independent Athletic League (APIAL) program, which promotes character development, leadership, teamwork, and sportsmanship. Through participation in APIAL athletics, our students are challenged to demonstrate Christian values both on and off the field, court, and course.
The goals of our athletic program are clear: do develop Godly character in student-athletes, to encourage coaches and parents to model Christian values from the sidelines, and to prepare our athletes to ne positive witnesses in our league through excellent sportsmanship and Christ-centered conduct.
Christ Lutheran School’s athletic program relies on dedicated staff and parent volunteers to challenge students physically by teaching age-appropriate skills for their chosen sport while fostering a Christ-pleasing work ethic.
