Derrick Harrison, Athletic Director

Flag Football will be implemented as a spring sport starting in spring of 2028, according to athletic director Derrick Harrision. 

Previously, flag football had only an informal place at Lake Pointe, through Student Life activities. The move to add the spring sport takes the team season to a new, formal level. 

Lake Pointe has partnered with BSN Sports to offer an online Store for Spirit Wear and Gear. 

Students and spectators and families, faculty, and fans can all purchase items directly from the store. 

LPA does receive a portion of the sales proceeds. To browse, click this link:

I bet I can throw a rock farther than you can!  Let's talk about that.  

How should Christians view  competition in athletics?

Athletic director, Mr. Bill Spratley, took time to record a three-part series on competition. In the episodes, he discusses the roots of competition in human nature, and how Lake Pointe seeks to apply competition in the biblical training and encouragement of the entire LPA community -- including the academy's five core values:  

• Servant leadership
• Community
• Humility
• Prayer
• World evangelization --  as a "city on a hill."  

Adding to Mr. Spratley's previous discussion on athletic coaching philosophy, the new series includes three related topics:  

• A Philosophy of competition and human nature
• Biblical views of Christian competition
• How competition factors in the Mariner athletic program

 Listen while in the car or exercising!

What does Jesus have to say and to do with competition? On the podcast "Footsteps in Educational Ministry, Athletic Director Bill Spratley chats with Head of School, Louis Lemmon on the value of competition at a Christian ministry school.
