Soccer usually begins the Saturday after the first day of school. Practices and games are Saturday mornings based on age groups.

The HPBC provides a sports leagues in order to provide families with an opportunity for children to participate in a Christ centered activity. Our goal is to allow children to play and compete in a Christian atmosphere, and for their parents to have Christian fellowship. It is our desire that our players as well as families, realize Jesus Christ should be the center of our lives. We encourage this through prayer, and a short challenge from God’s Word after each practice and game, and a concluding Award Ceremony.
