Rockford Lutheran Junior / Senior High School Athletics

Girl's Athletics

Boy's Athletics

Rockford Lutheran coaches encourage others to use athletics in a way to influence others toward our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Crusader athletics play a key role in our lives that mold us into the people that we are called to be by God. Rockford Lutheran allows us to fulfill a higher purpose in our professional endeavors as Christian educators and students. Incredibly strong relationships have been built with each other through the awesome power, grace, and mercy provided by our gracious God. These bonds are based on faith, trust, loyalty, respect for differences, and commitment to lofty goals spiritually, physically, and academically.

Superior athletic teams exhibit a deep sense of obligation, responsibility, and dedication to each other. Teammates (coaches, players, parents, athletic administrators, etc.) who display these characteristics develop a strong sense of unity that is only provided within a nurturing family setting. Families are loyal to their Faith in our Lord Jesus Christ which leads us to be loyal toward others no matter what the setting or worldly view. We are really a part of something special here at Rockford Lutheran and beyond this school’s ministry.

Many of the principles and skills that are learned here in the classroom are challenged and developed through participation in athletics. The field of competition provides the opportunity for character growth and the development of our student-athletes. These programs provide a venue for students to challenge themselves to do their best and strive for excellence in all aspects of their lives.

Rockford Lutheran High School is privileged to be a member of the Big Northern Conference since 2003-04. This affiliation allows us to continue the excellent opportunities for competition with schools such as Byron, Oregon, Stillman Valley, Winnebago, and Genoa-Kingston. Our Jr. High School competes in the Northern Conference against schools such as Christian Life, Harlem, Freeport Jr. High, Prairie Hill, Roscoe, Rockford Christian and Stephen Mack.

We emphasize the development of sportsmanship, leadership, and teamwork as fundamental components to the success of each of our student-athletes. Successful programs incorporate preparation and competition both during and out of season. Our facilities provide quality practice environments, as well as weight training and conditioning opportunities.
