Q12. What is the biggest difference between the Titans and many other high school football teams?
A12. The Titans is a Christian ministry which will expose players to Christian and biblical values throughout the program. Devotions are held at each practice. We will help our players grow in their faith and character as well as their football ability. Coaches and staff will practice a disciplined approach, with no cursing or vulgar language, music or activities allowed. Titans are expected to follow the Player Code of Conduct, faithfully attend and give 100-percent effort during practices and games, keep a good attitude, and show respect for their coaches, fellow players, opposing team coaches and players, referees, and themselves. Titans standards are high, and we will hold our players to the standards, whether the player is a Christian or not. Players who consistently fail to meet the standards are likely to be cut from the team.
