Welcome to MCA Athletics

Welcome to MCA Athletics! We are passionate about equipping student-athletes to follow Jesus while pursuing excellence and developing wisdom, character, and service both on and off the field. At Maranatha, athletics is about more than the game. We coach and mentor students to both excel in their sport and impact the world for Christ. The competitive nature and incredible discipleship happening within sports programming has resulted in a significant number of MCA student to participate. In MCA's commitment to the whole student (spiritual, physical, intellectual, social, and emotional), we provide not only the sport offering, but the weight training, 2027 summer pride program, and high quality coaches to inspire students to meet their God-given potential.

In grades 6-12, MCA offers a total of 13 different sports , MCA provides students with a wide variety of opportunities to compete, grow, build relationships, and use their God-given gifts.

MCA middle school and high school compete in the Kaw Valley Conference. Besides Maranatha this conference includes Bishop Seabury Academy, Bishop Ward High School, Faith Christian Academy, Heritage Christian Academy, Kansas City Christian School, Lutheran High School of Kansas City, and Northland Christian School.
