Core Values

Richland Creek Sports is a first-class sports experience for kids which emphasizes healthy competition, sportsmanship, skills building and fun versus the “win-at-all-costs” mentality found in many children's sports leagues. Our coaches' main goal is to teach sports skills through positive encouragement with a Bible-focused foundation. Parents love the family-friendly schedule, welcoming environment, and coaches who teach the sport without yelling. Kids love the fact that they get to play or cheer every game, make new friends, and have fun learning new skills.

Solid Foundation

Our coaches are well-trained and dedicated, not only to their sport but also to their love for children. Our sports programs encourage having fun, building skills, and learning more about God and His Word through sports.

What Sports do you have and when?
  • Fall Sports: Flag Football & Cheer (August-October)
  • Winter Sports: Basketball & Cheer (November - March)
  • Year-Round: Tae Kwon Do & Karate

NOTE ON SCHEDULES

All scheduled times mentioned below are tentative and subject to change as we navigate the current state of things with Covid. If you would like to check out any of the listed activities, please contact the leader of that activity for the most up to date schedule. Thank you!

FLAG FOOTBALL

Richland Creek Sports Flag Football leagues offer a safe, dynamic, and competitive environment for young athletes to both discover and develop the skills and techniques necessary to succeed on both sides of the ball. The slate of practices and games ensures that all flag football participants receive comprehensive instruction and gain a keen understanding of the sport.

WEATHER POLICY

• We will keep the most up-to-date weather/cancellation information for practices/games on the Richland Creek website and the Recreation Facebook page.

Your child's safety is our number one priority. If there is potential for inclement weather, the Recreation Director will ultimately be responsible for determining if the practice or game needs to be cancelled. This call will be made in a timely fashion as to allow parents/players plenty of time to adjust their schedules.

If a game or practice is stopped due to weather and/or poor field conditions, it will be cancelled for that session. Subsequent practices/games will be cancelled and that information will be communicated as quickly as possible.

Cancelled practices/games are not rescheduled.

If more than one game is missed due to weather, there will be an alternative make-up day at the end of the regular season.

BASKETBALL

Playing kids basketball with Richland Creek Sports is not only fun your child, but a great fit for your family! Our kids basketball programs conveniently fit into your family’s busy schedule with no travel teams and just a one-hour practice and one-hour game each week.

Our practices and games will be high-energy and centered around developing the athlete as a whole person.

Coaches use practices and games to teach and build basketball skills while making sure the kids have fun. Kids will also learn teamwork and build self-esteem in our kids basketball leagues making for a positive sports experience.

Richland Creek Sports Basketball is for boys and girls in grades K-6.

CHEER

Cheerleading is becoming more popular throughout North America, and our kids cheerleading programs strive to teach kids the basics in a fun environment. This foundation in cheerleading will help kids cheer successfully at the next level.

Each coach will make fun a priority as they teach kids cheerleading skills to each child on the squad, and since there are no tryouts, every child will have the chance to bring the crowd to their feet!

Busy families can even take part in our kids cheerleading programs, because games and practices are one hour each per week.

Richland Creek Sports Cheerleading is for girls in grades K-6. There will be cheerleading in conjunction with both our Flag Football and Basketball seasons. Registration will open for each sport individually during their respective season.

Stay tuned for details about the next season of Cheerleading!

KARATE

At Christian Karate, our classes are led by highly qualified instructors that have given many years to the study of karate. And while there is much to learn from each of them, our instructors main focus is to build strong, personal relationships with their students to help them grow in karate and life.

Aside from the obvious physical benefits such as increased strength, endurance, flexibility, balance, and coordination, one can also expect to gain a sense of self- confidence. Karate also stresses the importance of self-discipline, respect, hard work, and humility. Because I consider this a ministry, it is my goal to not only help you or your child to grow physically and mentally, but also spiritually. That is why we incorporate prayer time and a short Bible Study into our classes as well.

Karate will meet on Mondays and Thursdays in the Family Life Center

6-7pm for Kids Class (ages 6-12)
7-9pm for Adults Class (ages 13+)
Monthly tuition is $35/month.
