Fayetteville Homeschool Christian Athletics
A ministry of Open Arms Christian Fellowship. FHCA offers competitive homeschool sports programs in volleyball, basketball and soccer for homeschoolers in the Fayetteville, NC area. Through these sports, we focus on Christian values and the total development of the individual. Our program offers an atmosphere and environment that is conducive to helping young athletes reach their fullest potential. We are a member of the North Carolinians for Home Education Athletic Conference. However, we play not only other homeschool teams but also local Christian schools from Fayetteville, Lumberton, Dunn and Sanford. All of these sports are demanding and take time, effort, dedication, and perseverance and instill self-esteem and the value of teamwork. FHCA creates an environment that is fun, educational and competitive in scope. FHCA teaches focus, a strong work ethic, leadership skills, goal setting and the value of education; we strive for every member of FHCA to become a better athlete, person, and, most importantly, Christian. Currently basketball and volleyball practices and home games are held at Massey Hill Baptist Church Gym on Southern Ave. Soccer practice is held at Church of the Open Door on Cliffdale.
