Athletics
Redeemer Lutheran has a diverse sports program emphasizing sportsmanship, teamwork, and fun. We believe that in addition to increasing physical strength, participation in sports offers camaraderie and teaches team and leadership skills, which contribute to a well-rounded education.
Competitive Program
Our school competes with other private and religious schools in the Pensacola area. We participate in the Catholic Youth Sports League. We also host other teams in our newly-built gym.
We offer volleyball, football, and cheerleading in the fall for sixth through eighth graders and basketball in the winter for second through eighth graders. Our football and cheerleading programs are a joint effort with St. John Catholic School. We have recently added flag football in the fall for first through sixth graders and soccer for second through eight graders in the spring. We also participate in an annual track meet at Catholic High School every year.
Academics Matter
We place high value on academics in relation to sports participation. We monitor all students who play on the various teams, and they must maintain a 2.0 grade point average to remain active on the team.
Balanced Schedules
We limit practice time for basketball and volleyball to three hours per week. Students must attend school the day before the games in order to participate. Most games are on Saturdays, with the exception of volleyball.
