Knights Sports Academy

The Knights Sports Academy is dedicated to equipping elementary aged students with the skills and character necessary to be successful in athletics. We are focused on engaging young athletes in sport(s) at an early age to help develop their natural gifts. While healthy competition is a part of sports, we also desire for them to have fun with their friends, become more physically fit and honor God. 

Knights Sports Academy partners with DC Summer Programs to provide a variety of sport camps for grades 2-5 throughout the summer. Visit the Knights Sports Academy section of the DC Summer Programs to learn more.

League Affiliations

Basketball:

DC Lower School students typically have opportunities to play basketball in the Jr. Knights Program (K-5) and in some cases for a grade specific DC team competing in nearby fall and spring leagues. As students’ progress and enter Middle School, there are a few nearby AAU organizations that offer opportunities for DC players to try out and work to improve as players. Interested boys and girls should feel free to reach out to the DC Athletic Department for additional information.

Soccer:

The Liverpool FC soccer club exists to develop players who will eventually play for and contribute to the DC middle school and upper school programs.  We do this in a setting that emphasizes Christian character and seeks to honor the Lord in all things. In the fall, our travel teams compete in the Central League, Delco League, and the Philadelphia Area Girls League.  In addition, we compete in various tournaments, enter winter futsal leagues, and run training and camps throughout the year. 

Field Hockey:

Middle School age players have an opportunity to form a team and improve their skills and game play by participating in the USTC league.
