Athletics at NMA is an integral part of the schools total educational program. Our success must be free from conceit and our losses free from malice. We must teach a spirit of personal self-sacrifice, of unselfishness, and of team play. There must be in our coaching a respect for our opponents and officials. Coaches and players should always remember Colossians 3:23 " And whatsoever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men." Our prayer is that our athletes become more like Christ because of the daily example of the coach, administration, and teachers.
Winning is of great importance to the program. However, to sacrifice Christ-like qualities to win a physical victory is disastrous. The student athlete and coach should realize there are two victories, the spiritual and the physical. The goal should be to attain spiritual victory at each practice and competition. The physical victory should be the next goal, and its meaning is validated through the spiritual victory.
The student athlete and coach have an awesome responsibility of maintaining Christ-like qualities. They are looked upon as leaders within the school and are constantly being observed. The qualities are impossible to maintain unless glorifying Christ is the motivation.
Athletics is an opportunity to practice the principles of God's Word, such as subjecting one's self to authority, working together as members of the body of Christ, and controlling feelings that arise in competition. Athletic competition offers an arena for the demonstration of our faith in Jesus Christ and opens many doors for active ministry.
