Coach Andy Garcia is P.E. Director for our Middle School and Upper Elementary students. Coach Garcia is originally from San Diego, California where he grew up playing a variety of sports. In 2015, he moved with is wife Missy and their children to Auckland, New Zealand. While living in New Zealand, he made his coaching debut when his son, Kyson, started playing sports. He spent the next few years coaching and managing rugby teams, soccer teams, and was part of an organization that introduced the game of baseball to the Kiwis.

The Garcias moved back to the US in 2021 and settled in Greenville, South Carolina. Coach Garcia immediately started coaching here in the Upstate when he joined the local Greenville Little League and started a youth flag rugby program for the Greer 76ers. He since has been hired by Christ Church Episcopal School as the Head Coach for their Junior Cavs Baseball Program and Middle School Baseball team. He feels that coaching is more than just teaching kids how to play a game, it’s about having a positive influence that emphasizes the life lessons that sports can provide.
