The Sportsmanship Crisis: How Christian Schools Can Lead the Way

A National Virtual Roundtable for Christian School Leaders

Athletics don’t just build athletes. They reveal character.

Across America, youth sports are facing a crisis. Poor sportsmanship. Hostile parents. Referee abuse. Toxic competition. Identity tied to performance. Winning at all costs.

Christian schools are called to transform the culture.

Join C-Suite for Christ and Bill Gosse, Founder of TeamScore, for an engaging, highly interactive virtual roundtable exploring how Christian schools can create athletic programs that develop champions for Christ, not just champions on the scoreboard.

Whether you’re a President, Head of School, Principal, Athletic Director, coach, or educational leader, you’ll leave equipped with practical strategies to build a Christ-centered athletic culture that glorifies God and transforms lives.

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” — Colossians 3:23
Thursday, August 27
10:30 a.m. – Noon (CST)
Led by Bill Gosse, Founder of TeamScore

Why This Conversation Matters

Athletics are one of the greatest leadership laboratories God has given us.

Every practice.
Every game.
Every locker room conversation.
Every difficult loss.
Every exciting victory.

Each moment provides an opportunity to shape character, cultivate humility, teach servant leadership, and point young people toward Jesus Christ.

Unfortunately, many Christian schools experience the very same challenges affecting secular athletics, including poor sportsmanship, unhealthy parent behavior, referee conflicts, athlete entitlement, and an unhealthy obsession with winning.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

This roundtable exists to help Christian schools reclaim athletics as one of the most powerful discipleship tools available today.

Featuring Bill Gosse and TeamScore

We’re honored to welcome Bill Gosse, Founder of TeamScore, one of the nation’s leading voices on Christ-centered sportsmanship and athletic culture.

TeamScore exists to help schools, coaches, parents, athletes, and officials build environments where integrity, humility, respect, servant leadership, and Biblical character become just as important as wins and championships.

Bill will share practical, real-world strategies that schools can begin implementing immediately to strengthen their athletic departments while deepening their Christian mission.

What You'll Learn

During this interactive discussion, you’ll discover how to:

  • Build a truly Christ-centered athletic culture
  • Improve sportsmanship throughout your school community
  • Equip coaches to become stronger disciple-makers
  • Engage parents as partners instead of spectators
  • Handle difficult athletic situations through a Biblical worldview
  • Develop athletes who compete with excellence while reflecting Christ
  • Strengthen your school’s Christian identity through athletics
  • Create practical action steps your leadership team can implement immediately

This won’t be a lecture.

It’s a collaborative conversation where Christian school leaders from across the country will share ideas, challenges, best practices, and solutions together.

Who Should Attend?

This event is designed specifically for:

  • Christian School Presidents
  • Heads of School
  • Principals and Assistant Principals
  • Athletic Directors
  • Athletic Department Staff
  • Coaches with leadership responsibilities
  • School Board Members
  • Ministry leaders overseeing athletics

If you influence the culture of athletics within your school, this event is for you.

Why You Should Attend

You’ll leave with far more than inspiration.

You’ll gain practical tools, proven strategies, valuable relationships, and fresh ideas that can strengthen your athletic department while advancing your school’s Kingdom mission.

Most importantly, you’ll join a growing movement of Christian leaders committed to ensuring athletics become a platform for discipleship, leadership development, and lasting Gospel impact.

Because the ultimate goal is producing faithful disciples of Jesus Christ.

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.” — Philippians 2:3

Be Part of the Solution

The future of Christian athletics will not be shaped by culture.

It will be shaped by courageous Christian leaders willing to lead differently.

Join C-Suite for Christ, Bill Gosse, and TeamScore as we work together to help Christian schools become known for producing young men and women whose character reflects Jesus Christ in every competition, every conversation, and every season.

Together, we can transform the culture of sports one Christian school at a time.
