Many Lower School students play on United Church Athletic League (UCAL) teams sponsored by the River Oaks Baptist Church (ROBC). ROBC is a founding member of UCAL. UCAL teams are not part of the River Oaks Baptist School Athletic Program. The primary mission of the league is to provide families with a place to take part in athletic competition within a Christian environment. UCAL teams typically have one practice/week, one game/week, and parent coaches.
The league offers soccer (grades K-6), basketball (grades 2-6), and volleyball (grades 3-6), as well as skills in camps in other sports such as lacrosse and golf.
Complete information about UCAL sports and all game schedules can be found at www.ucalsports.org. Other questions can be directed to UCAL Sports Coordinator for ROBC, Michael Honn.
