Guiding young men and women to Biblical Maturity : teaching them to use their gifts to honor Jesus is the mission of the Columbus Crusader football program. We seek to define for our players what a Biblical man is and then encourage him to live as one. As coaches we strive to model Christ as we mentor and disciple young men. We believe that Jesus would have been the best football player ever, showing the qualities of toughness, humility, loyalty, fair play, and moral excellence.

Crusader football began in 1996 as a 6th & 7th grade team. It has grown to now include a High School Varsity, Junior Varsity, Middle School teams (separate 7th and 8th grade) and four 5th/6th grade (combined) teams.

Our teams are open to any young man interested in football or any young lady interested in cheerleading, from grades 5 through 12 in the greater Columbus area. This includes public, private and home schooled young people.
