About Us
Character built through competition
CHSM has a passion to develop today's young people into tomorrow's leaders through strong character development learned in competitive athletics.
Who we are
Welcome to CHSM
Christian Homeschool Sports Ministries (CHSM) was founded to serve and support homeschool families desiring to participate in competitive sports. Our purpose is to provide a safe Christian environment for families to be a part of, and to help develop athletes who will lead out in their future families, churches, communities, careers, and educational and athletic programs.
Our leadership team and coaches are committed to helping our young people grow spiritually, socially, physically and mentally. We work with kids ages 10–18 across basketball, volleyball and swim & dive. Athletes must be 18 before October 1st of the year in which they would like to participate.
CHSM is a 501(c)(3) organization. Tax-deductible donations may be arranged by emailing chsmresources@gmail.com.
Eligibility
Registration indicates that you consider yourself a homeschool family and meet the requirements of the Texas state definition of homeschooling (Leeper Law).
Where we play
North Houston, Texas — with competition across Houston, Austin, Dallas and national tournaments in Kansas City, MO.
Our identity
The Crimson Knight
Put on the full armor of God — Ephesians 6:11
The Crimson Knight stands for everything CHSM builds into its athletes: character under pressure, discipline in preparation, and the courage to compete with excellence while serving others first. Our players take the court, the field and the pool armored in faith — knights for Christ in everything they do.
