Athletics

At SBSUM, Athletics is not viewed merely as an extracurricular activity but as an integral part of the education experience. Athletic programs provide a unique avenue outside the classroom that strengthens our students’ minds and bodies, while developing character through intentional discipleship.

What We Offer

SBSUM offers athletics for:

Grammar (Grades 1-4): basketball, baseball, soccer, softball
Logic (Grades 5-8): Volleyball, cheer, cross country, six-man football, basketball, baseball, softball, track and field, tennis
Rhetoric (Grades 9-12): Volleyball, cheer (coming in 2024), cross country, six-man football (coming in 2024), basketball (coming in 2024), track and field, tennis

At the Pre-Grammar and Grammar stages, many of our families take advantage of the opportunities we offer at SBSUM by participating in athletics against other local teams. Athletics of all kinds provide excellent opportunities for young students to grow and learn.

Athletics Philosophy

The Purpose of Athletics

We believe athletics are an integral part of the development of our student athletes. Our pre-grammar and grammar students may be involved in a variety of athletics through local athletics associations. Please join other SBSUM families and students who actively take part in these leagues. Athletics are an excellent opportunity for young students to grow and learn as student athletes show moments of brilliance and score hard-fought goals. Athletics unifies, entertains, and pushes our limits, and that spirit is alive and well at Second Baptist School University-Model. Students in the fifth through eighth grades participate in competitive athletic conferences against other private schools across the area, while ninth through twelfth grades students participate in TAPPS, which is the largest private school conference in the country, and spans across Texas.

Athletics & Community

Community Building

We care very much about our community and are constantly looking for ways to invite and involve parents to be active participants in the SBSUM family. Athletics afford us a gateway to interact while supporting and exposing our students to athletics teams. Not only do parents play a decisive role in the academic regimen of their children, but they also play a part in their physical development.
