ATHLETICS
Athletics are a core component of classical education. In fact, the ancient Greeks believed that physical fitness and intellectual training were inseparable. Here at Veritas Collegiate Academy, our athletic program is designed to complement our academic program. By participating in athletics, students get the opportunity to be a part of something larger than themselves. The experience of practicing, competing, winning, and losing cultivates discipline and builds character.
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith." Hebrews 12:1-2
Junior Varsity and Varsity Sports
Volleyball
The girls' volleyball team at Veritas Collegiate Academy is a vibrant community, featuring a squad of dedicated athletes. This season, the team has shown remarkable growth, with players demonstrating improved skills and stronger cohesion on the court. Their perseverance has inspired pride at Veritas.
Swimming
The swim team at Veritas is a close community. Bonding together on the bus by singing along to the radio, and cheering for each other at meets until their throats are sore, the swimmers on the Veritas team exemplify joy and encouragement. Swimmers of all levels are welcome to grow under the guidance of our knowledgeable coach.
Tennis
At Veritas, we are blessed to be just a few blocks from the tennis courts at Virginia Highland Park, so our tennis team can walk to practice. Players of all experience levels learn from each other and enjoy each other's company, while improving their tennis skills at practice and testing their skills at matches.
