Join us as we build something special in Southwest Missouri.

 A place for fellowship.  A place for competition.  A place to call home.

The Lighthouse Chargers Booster Club is steadfastly committed to an urgent and important purpose. It's simple. Our homeschool athletes need a home. We want to build them that home.  Powered by our Legacy Campaign, we plan to lay a foundation that will provide generations of homeschool student athletes in Southwest Missouri the athletic facilities they need to play and compete.

One of the greatest challenges in deciding to homeschool is ensuring access to quality competitive sports programs.  While homeschool sports programs like Lighthouse Chargers are growing in size and breadth of offerings, they still face ever increasing difficulty in consistently securing facilities for practice and competition. 

We plan to meet this challenge head on by building a multi-sport "home" facility for the Chargers homeschool community. Continue scrolling to learn more about this critically important initiative, find out why it is so deperately needed, and how you can partner with us to make it happen.

Chargers for the Lord. This is who we are.

Our Mission

We are investing in the future of our homeschool youth.  In doing so, we are also investing in the development of mind, body, and most importantly, the spirit of these precious student athletes. We fully support the Chargers mission, to build strong Chistian character in our student athletes as they grow in their faith. In building this multi-sport athletic home, we will provide our homeschool community with the space and opportunity for it's young people to participate, excel, and thrive in competitive sports programs.  We will establish a safe and fun "home base" for our kids to gather, fellowship, study, train, compete, and grow.

Meeting the Growing Need

According to the U.S. Census Bureau's Household Pulse Survey, the percentage of U.S. households that homeschooled more than doubled from the 2019-2020 school year to the 2020-2021 school year. The Home School Legal Defense Association estimates that today, 7 to 8 million children are being homeschooled. It was predicted by many that most of those included in this historic pandemic driven increase would go back to school as post-pandemic restrictions were lifted. But according to the Home School Legal Defense Association, estimates for the 2021-2022 school year indicate only a 1% drop in US homeschool households compared to the previous year. 

Our goal as an organization is to meet the needs of this fast growing and diverse population. The Chargers organization currently serves over 900 student athletes, and that number is rapidly increasing. Currently the Chargers organization relies exclusively on the ability to rent from public and private institutions for practices and home competition across all sports. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find the space required to rent from these institutions. The time is NOW to build our Chargers home and to become a model for what is possible for homeschool communities nationwide.

Our Charger families come from 50+ zip codes across southern and middle Missouri, and even northern Arkansas!

“If you’re asking ‘What’s in it for you?’, this is it. I can confidently say that every young person emerging from the Chargers program has been taught to love their neighbor and to love God. Every single one of them leaves the team with a unified sense of brotherhood or sisterhood and a Christ-loving world view that will carry on for years to come. Supporting such a cause can truly be its own reward.”

- Chargers Football Alum, Bryan Morris #55

“Chargers Football has helped my boys with the physical side of teamwork in a sport where being a star athlete isn't enough - it takes an entire team and a plan for a play to work successfully. The program is wonderful! It puts sports second to moral and spiritual character. It shows kids that their sports ability will actually get better when their moral and spiritual character is where it needs to be. In other words, it teaches them that attitude is important to success in whatever they do. I am glad that they are part of the program!  Thank you for all that the coaches do for these young men!”
