EAGLE ATHLETICS
Orientation
What you need to know about TMA Athletics...
MISSION and VISION
Pursuing spiritual and academic excellence with
Christian families by going the second mile.
TMA ATHLETICS – 3 Year Initiatives
1. Raise the Bar
2. Grow the Body
3. Create Community
RAISE THE BAR
We believe student-athletes will reach for the goals
set before them. It is important that we set achievable
goals while pushing them beyond their perceived limitations.
IRON EAGLE – “as iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”
Focal Point: Humility in understanding where we are and where we
want to be. Philippians 2 demonstrates the humility of Jesus, yet He
was the greatest leader of all time and Savior of the world.
GROW THE BODY
We each have a role in the growth and progression
of our athletic program. Everyone buying in to their role fully equips the
body to function at its greatest capacity.
Focal Point: Numerical Growth, Physical Development, Stature
1. We certainly want to see an increase in participation if the studentathlete understands initiative number 1 – Raise the Bar
2. We are establishing a strength & conditioning program as well as a
nutritional plan for all student-athletes.
3. Stature – At TMA we will focus on WHO we are as much as WHAT we are.
State Championships won’t define us. Our Character will define us and
winning becomes a by-product.
CREATE COMMUNITY
Philippians 2
“So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from
love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,
complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same
love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from
selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more
significant than yourselves.”
SERVICE LEADERSHIP is an emphasis within TMA Athletics
INVERTED PYRAMID
Similar to a pyramid business model, we invert the paradigm for
how we SERVE. Flip the pyramid upside down.
If I serve two people, they each serve two, they each serve two
and so forth, we serve exponentially. Eventually, someone will
demonstrate God’s love model to me, but my goal is to start back
at the bottom of the pyramid.

Spiritual Integration
Caps & Chaps Program
Similar to how a coach selects a “captain”, our coaches will select a team
“chaplain”. This chaplain will be connected to the Director of Christian
Life and be given tools to assist the spiritual culture of their team.
Service Project
Each team will be expected to carry out a service project. This can be a
reoccurring project such as delivering gifts to the children’s hospital,
working with a food shelter, retirement center, or hosting an event for a
cause such as “Pink Out.”
A Healthy Athletic Program
1. Leadership – oversight by varsity head coach
2. Communication – established from building relationships
3. Professionalism/Class – partnering with NIKE
4. Qualified Coaching Staff – proficient in sport and spiritual leader
5. Physical Development – partnering with SSP
6. Feeder Programs – connecting with middle and lower school teams
7. Facility Enhancements – nice facilities at TMA but always evaluating
8. Summer Camps – exposure to non-TMA families and player development
9. Parental Support – everyone supporting each other
10. Performance – gradual expectations from lower school to varsity
Lower School Teams
TMA offers multiple opportunities for students to
participate in athletics and intramural games.
Each varsity head coach will work with the Assistant Director of
Athletics (over LS) to organize participation that directly feeds the
middle school and high school teams. This is a great opportunity
for students to learn the Eagle Way, work under the guidance of
our varsity coach, and develop skills in preparation for higher levels
of competition. More importantly, students learn how to develop
a proper attitude in both winning and losing.
LS Local Competition
Instead of traveling across Orlando, we will be competing against
local schools in the Oviedo area. In addition, a majority of the
games will be played at TMA.
Soccer, Basketball, Track, Flag Football, Volleyball, Golden Ball,
Cheerleading, Bowling
Middle School Teams
Middle school is developmental. While teams may participate in
league play and certainly compete to win, individual
development is stressed as a priority. As scripture encourages,
we will strive to do our best at all times and that certainly
suggests winning as a result of our best effort and our increased
development.
Are you in 5th grade?
NEXT YEAR IS YOUR TIME!
We want you to compete in our athletic program. Check out the
website for information about participating as a 6th graders. Some
options are:
Volleyball, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Swimming, Soccer,
Basketball, Cheerleading, Baseball, Softball, Track&Field, Tennis
The more participation we have, the more middle school teams we
can offer and support! Let us know what you want to play!
Who will we play in MS?
We will be scheduling Home and Away games or playing locally.
We are not scheduling league play where we have to travel a
long distance to play every game.
We want home games. We want local games. We want FUN!
Junior Varsity Teams
The junior varsity level is preparatory for varsity; for the purpose
of training underclassmen prior to their varsity ranks. When
participation numbers allow, we will provide a JV schedule.
Varsity Teams
At the varsity level there is an increased influence to win. While
that is not our sole purpose, there is certainly intentional training
towards a successful outcome. We want to compete for
championships at the district, regional and state level.
PLAY MORE THAN 1 SPORT
TMA has approximately 300 high school students. We need
student-athletes to play multiple sports. Our coaches will work
with you to ensure that you aren’t overburdened and having to
participate in 2 sports at the same time, but participation is key
for the growth and success of our athletic program.
So many sports are becoming dominated by the clubs. Don’t
miss out on the opportunity to represent your school!
Can you get recruited?
One myth is that student-athletes can’t get recruited from small
schools. Contrarily, at a smaller school, you have the opportunity
to play a greater role within the team and as a leader.
TMA coaches can assist with the recruiting process and help point
you toward realistic goals. However, most of the recruiting
exposure doesn’t come within high school. Club programs are
beneficial for self-promotion; high school sports allow you to
compete at the state level for your peers.

COMMITMENT
Student-Athletes are students first and must meet the academic standards outlined
through FHSAA and the TMA handbook. As successful students, athletes will be
expected to train as a team through the season as well as maintain the physical
training necessary during the off-season. Weight room, open facilities, summer
team camps, and other opportunities are a part of team expectations. We also
encourage multiple sport participation (national studies show academics improve
with multi-sport athletes), and the in-season sport takes priority. TMA coaches will
work to coordinate schedules. Please work with your coach to coordinate trips,
doctors appointments, vacations, etc.
Please see the Statement of Commitment at www.tmaathletics.com/forms
Discipline
It is imperative that our students are representing their team, the
school and Jesus Christ well. Most decisions or performance
come back to two R’s: Respect and Responsibility.
If your child is struggling in the classroom and not fulfilling the
expectations you have for them, let our coaches help.
Sometimes we quickly “pull” them from sports. Consider
allowing sports to change their behavior. It is often a good
motivator.
Vacation?
As our program grows, more involvement takes place during the summer
months. We understand the importance of family time and vacation and
certainly want to encourage that. Depending on your sport(s), they tend
to get busier during certain parts of the summer. So to accommodate
everyone and give our athletes a break, we are implementing a “dead
period” around July 4th holiday. The week before and the week after, take
a break!
Exceptions are made by the AD only. An example might be team camp
with limited availability.

Interested in playing
college athletics?
1. Work with your coach so that they understand you desire to
play at the collegiate level and together focus on what schools
are appropriate selections.
2. Visit www.ncaa.org for information regarding eligibility and
getting your test scores submitted.
How do I get HEARD?
Following Biblical Principles
1. Talk to your coach
- Not right after a game when emotions are high
- Take your son/daughter with you so that they can communicate with
the coach and everyone understands everyone’s perspective
2. If not sufficient, schedule an appointment with the coach and
Director of Athletics
3. Concern still not met? Call the front office to speak with another
administrator
We want to know you!
The ATHLETIC OFFICE welcomes you!
Please stop by or schedule an appointment to visit.
Love coffee? Schedule a time for a cup with TMA’s Director of
Athletics so we learn about your experience and hear how we
are doing things well and where we can improve.
