In today’s episode, we get to spend time with Robert Flatt from Oklahoma. Robert is a homeschool father of 4 and the executive director of the NCHC (National Christian Homeschool Championships), a homeschool sports organization that began in the early 1990s. Robert's parents made the decision to homeschool when he was in first grade. When he was 13, his family moved from Pennsylvania to Oklahoma where they learned about homeschool basketball. Robert's dad soon became a coach of a team and was eventually asked to run the entire program, known today as the NCHC. In 2017, Robert took over as the executive director and the NCHC continues to grow each year. The NCHC has hundreds of basketball teams and volleyball teams, as well as teams in track and field and golf all over the United States. Last year there were more than 360 basketball teams that attended the homeschool basketball national championships in Springfield, Missouri. Some prominent players that started their basketball careers in the NCHC include Justin Jackson, Blake Griffin, and Moriah Jefferson. Robert reminds listeners that building community among homeschool families is essential, and that sports is one way to foster such community. Connect with Robert Flatthttps://www.nchclive.com/Websiteshttps://hslda.org/https://homeschoollife.com/This Golden Hour
