At Desert Christian High School, our athletics program is designed to help students grow in physical strength, coordination, and endurance while maintaining high academic standards and fostering spiritual growth. We use sports as a tool to shape students into confident, encouraging leaders who demonstrate good sportsmanship and reflect Christ's love to others.

As a member of the Arizona Interscholastic Association, DCHS offers a variety of sports, including football, soccer, volleyball, swimming, basketball, golf, track, baseball, softball, and tennis. Our achievements include:

  • The only Arizona high school to win the AIA Directors Cup twice (2013, 2007), recognizing outstanding athletic programs.
  • Two-time recipient of the Boyd Baker Trophy for exceptional sportsmanship in 1A-5A Southern Arizona schools.
  • Honored with the AIA Tony Komadina Award for excellence in girls’ athletics.
  • Numerous state and regional titles.
  • Multiple “Coach of the Year” awards for our dedicated coaching staff.

Our program is a testament to the commitment and excellence of our student-athletes and coaches.
