LEGACY ACADEMY ATHLETICS

At Legacy Academy, we offer a variety of competitive sports for our students to participate in.  Our coaching staff is a team of individuals who have experience in the sport they coach and a love for our student athletes.  Our coaches use their sport to teach many life skills both on and off the field.  Legacy Academy is now a part of NMAA. See below for more information on the sports we offer here at Legacy Academy.

We encourage all students to participate in athletics.  Students may sign up before the season begins and pricing varies depending on the sport.

VOLLEYBALL

When your student athlete joins the Legacy Academy Volleyball program, she can expect a phenomenal sporting experience where they will be pushed in body and mind. Our “We Over Me” and “One Team, One Dream” mantras are at the core of who we are. We teach our young ladies to put others and their team before themselves, to work hard, and to always embody what it means to be a champion on and off the court!

          Our coaching staff is ready and willing to work with girls regardless of their level of development. Our volleyball program serves girls as young as 5th grade and currently operates five teams from middle school to varsity. We’ve recently won our first 7-1A District title and qualified for the NMAA State Volleyball Tournament for the first time. The future is bright for Legacy Academy Volleyball!

TRACK & FIELD

Track & Field at Legacy Academy is a high intensity high reward program. Not only focusing on the physical part of the sport, but also the mental and character building part of it. We train our track & field student athletes to focus on character over reputation, first, before anything else. When your child participates in this sport they will gain three things: 1. 100% participation 2. A healthy workout regimen and 3. Lifelong lessons on discipline, respect, honor, and resiliency.

Athletes will be trained in every event that they desire to compete in thoroughly and correctly by our coaching and training staff. From the field events to the running events, you can trust that your student athletes will have a season of tremendous growth just like many Silverback Student Athletes in the past. Our program has won back to back District 7-1A Championships and has produced some of the states top athletes with just over 25 state medals earned in our two year history competing at the NMAA State Track & Field Championships.

POWERLIFTING

Powerlifting at Legacy Academy is a program that has one simple goal: Train to win. Our program has produced several state champions and several state qualifiers. We won’t just be focusing on strength and lifting weights, but character development and being intentional in everything the student athlete does, especially with their walk with God.

The top three things that we will require from student athletes in powerlifting will be:

  1. Commitment
  2. Discipline
  3. Attitude 

The workouts in this program will be taught with proper technique for strength and avoiding risk of injury. The program given to each athlete will be tailored to their strength and individual needs. Students will grow in not just physical strength but mental strength as well by pushing themselves in both aspects every workout.
