NCA Hires New Football Coach

New Northside Christian Academy football coach, Greg Estep, has big plans to rebuild the Knight’s football program.

Estep will join the faculty of NCA for the 2012-2013 school year.   During his initial year he will lay the foundation, build relationships with students, and prepare to launch an elite football program in the 2013 fall season.

Estep brings an abundance of coaching experience to the field.  He worked with the San Diego Padres AA team as a Strength and Conditioning Coach for two years in Mobile, Alabama.  From there, he took his talents to Charlotte Christian School where he was the Assistant JV Baseball Coach and Assistant Football Coach/Quarterbacks Coach from 2007-2009.   While at Charlotte Christian, he helped lead the team to three straight State Championships, winning the title in 2008.

For the last two years, Estep has held the role of Head Football Coach/Director of Strength and Conditioning at Westminster Academy in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. As head coach at Westminster, Estep guided the team as they overcame a great deal of adversity.  In the years before he took the reins, the team was 0-16 and many players were feeling discouraged.  But with hard work, commitment, and determination, Estep and his team had successful winning seasons and a renewed passion for the game.  Offensively they were ranked in the Top 5 both years in Broward County and set numerous single season records.  This past season, Estep was proud to produce the school’s first Division I football player in 20 years.  With Estep as head coach, much was accomplished in a short period of time.

We are thrilled to welcome Greg Estep and his family back to North Carolina and into the Northside Christian Academy Family.
