Chad Walker

Program building, player development, and a commitment to academic excellence are just a few of the things that Chad Walker prides himself on. 

Now entering his second year as Varsity Football head coach, Mr. Walker will be taking on the additional duty for 2022-23 as Christ School's Assistant Athletic Director for Coaching Relations.

Mr. Walker came to us from Cambridge Christian School in Tampa, Fla., where he was the 2020 Florida Athletic Coaches Association 2-A District 15 Coach of the Year. The Lancers (9-2) not only won on the field but also had the third-highest grade point average in the Florida High School Athletic Association. 

Prior to Cambridge, Mr. Walker worked for several collegiate football programs including as an assistant coach at Lafayette (his alma mater). He has experience training NFL veterans as well as prospects for their combines and pro days. He is also involved with the Lauren's First and Goal Foundation, a group that hosts the largest one-day football camp in the country to raise money for cancer-related causes.

Mr. Walker was an all-conference player at Lafayette, where he graduated with a B.A. in Anthropology and Sociology in 2006. He played football professionally in Italy and Sweden before starting his coaching career in 2008.

Mr. Walker lives on campus with his wife, Victoria, and their daughter, Elle.
