The Mariner Mission

  • To help our athletes reach their potential as basketball players by teaching them the fundamentals of the game and by providing them the opportunity to showcase their abilities in a competitive environment
  • To use the lessons of the game to train our athletes in sportsmanship and character development
  • To build a sense of school pride and develop relationships among our athletes that they will value for a lifetime
  • To glorify God and further His kingdom by emphasizing Colossians 3:23 “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.”

The Mariner Experience

Every practice and game begins with prayer. Everything we do is intended to strengthen the Christian faith of our athletes.

Mariners receive accurate statistics after each game to document their achievements. They also receive recognition if they tie or break a school record in any major statistical category.

Mariners have access to the team blog with archives of game photos, videos, game and season stats, school records, and sports articles intended to build their Christian faith.

Mariners are invited to attend the year-end awards banquet.

Mariners have opportunities to attend outings to local high school and college basketball games with teammates.

Requirements for Becoming a Mariner

  • 5th – 12th grade student
  • Enrolled at NGCA or homeschooled
  • Completion of all required forms and payment of participation fee

The season runs from mid-October to the end of January. The Mariners usually practice 1-2 times a week and play 1-2 games a week. There are no games or mandatory practices during Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays.
