Go Cardinals!

Encouragement, teamwork, and leadership are the foundations of athletics at the Fairfax Christian School. Students’ self–discipline, confidence, and determination can improve with participation in sports. Our athletic department focuses on positive reinforcement, healthy competition, and good sportsmanship. Student safety is always our top priority. Our school does not participate in high–injury sports. Our natural grass fields provide a healthy playing surface for our students.

The Fairfax Christian School is a member of the Northern Virginia Independent Athletic Conference (NVIAC), the Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association (VISAA), and the Metro Private School Conference (MPSC) and has over fifteen competitive sports teams. Students in middle and high school are eligible to play sports. Fall league sports include boys’ soccer, girls’ volleyball, and boys’ and girls’ cross country. Winter league sports include boys’ and girls’ basketball. Spring league sports include boys’ flag football, girls' soccer, boys’ and girls’ cross country, and boys’ and girls’ golf.
