WELCOME Welcome to Silverdale Baptist Academy! This guide contains information for all visiting teams on our schedule this season. This guide will help familiarize you with the Silverdale Baptist Academy facility, as well as provide you and any traveling friends/family with local restaurants and hotels. Our mission at Silverdale is to partner with families in order to provide an environment of academic excellence with a biblical worldview, which is conducive to developing young people of character, while preparing them to represent our Lord Jesus Christ in all walks of life.
M I S S I O N S TAT E M E N T To glorify the Lord Jesus Christ through athletics by doing our best for His honor. We aim to develop students spiritually, academically, socially, and emotionally while pursuing excellence in competition.
V I S I O N S TAT E M E N T To create an uncommon athletic experience that develops Christ‑centered leaders through competitive sports, servant leadership, and intentional discipleship.
P H I L O S O P H Y O F AT H L E T I C S At Silverdale, we believe athletics are an extension of our classroom and spiritual formation. We compete with integrity and character, understanding that sports serve as a powerful tool for teaching life lessons. Athletics are not an end in themselves, but a means of shaping student-athletes who are faithful, resilient, and missiondriven. We coach the heart before we coach the skill. Wins matter, but transformation matters more.
