OVCN Sports
Pre-K - 5th Grade

OVCN Sports takes the focus away from the scoreboard and places it on things that truly matter like team work, skill building, and community. We focus on what it means to live a life of faith and place your hope and trust in Jesus Christ.

Kids 4 years old – 5th grade are invited to play:

  • Flag Football in the fall
  • Cheerleading in the fall
  • Basketball in the winter
