More Than an Athlete

Being a Briercrest athlete means more than competing in your sport or succeeding in the classroom. Our desire is that every student-athlete develops the skills, character, and spiritual foundation needed to live out the truth of God’s Word in every area of life.

Being a Briercrest athlete involves more than just playing your sport and going to school. We want to ensure that every athlete who comes through this program has the skills and tools necessary to show the truth of God's Word through their lives in everything they do. 

As a Briercrest College athlete, you will be challenged to prioritize your relationship with the Lord, followed by your relationships with family and friends, a dedication to your education, and a servant-like attitude towards your team and sport. While training here on campus, participating in team times with your team chaplain, travelling to away games, and competing in one of the best college conferences in Canada, you will have unique opportunities to grow in your character and share Christ's love with those around you.

We invite you to challenge yourself to utilize the athletic gifts God has given you to serve Him fully and develop new life skills that will enable you to follow Christ throughout your life.

 

Our Core Focus

It's our passion to transform lives toward their God-intended purpose. Using the pursuit of athletic championships within Briercrest's unique training environment to grow disciples of Jesus, form transformational leaders of character, inspire graduates, and develop skills for both sport and life.

At Briercrest, athletics is about more than the scoreboard. It’s where high-level competition meets discipleship, where coaches develop the whole athlete — body, mind, and soul.

Our athletes train to win. But they also train to serve, to lead, and to grow into people of integrity. Whether it’s on the court, the field, or in the weight room, our teams are committed to excellence that glorifies God.
