Updated on 09/24/2024
Eagle fans, We recently had the special privilege of celebrating the contributions and accomplishments of our seniors on the Grand Rapids Christian Eagles Boys Varsity Soccer Team. We asked each of our Seniors parents to share some thoughts about their son.Will Bufalini Parents: Nathan and Jen BufaliniWillie B.--What a ride it has been watching you do what you love. At age 2, you told us you wanted to be a goalie. At age 14, you became a Grand Rapids Christian Eagle. Those decisions have had such a wonderful impact on our family. Soccer has taken us all over the country - turning your love of soccer into incredible memories for all of us.

2024-2025 Athletics Start Dates
Updated on 09/24/2024
The MHSAA has done a great job of continuing to work to help find balance in athletics by creating breaks in the seasons for athletes and coaches to be with their families. We love working hard to develop our gifts but appropriate scope is important also.
Summer Dead Week: June 30-July 7- this is the actual dead week where there is zero contact between players and coaches and no use of district facilities.
Pre-Season Down Time: the week prior to each season there is "down time" where there are no open gyms or captains practices. Only 4-player workouts and conditioning are permitted.
You can find our official athletics start dates for 2024-2025 here!

Become an MHSAA Official
Updated on 09/24/2024
Over 100 football and basketball officials have retired/resigned in the West Michigan area just this year. In addition, the girls and boys basketball schedule is compacted such that they are playing 3 days a week. Officials have gone from officiating 2 days a week to 5 and sometimes 6 days a week, with multiple games on each night.
The number of high school athletics officials is becoming such that Freshman and JV games in a variety of sports may need to be officiated by coaches.
The MHSAA needs more officials. Why should you consider be an MHSAA official? Ace Corey has been officiating for 15 year and this is what he had to say:
It’s a great way to give back to the game that gave so much to me.
I get to be a part of a team.
It’s great for my physical health.
It’s the best seat in the house.
It’s great to work with kids and see their joy in what they are passionate about.
