Basketball Is the Doorway
Reach families through the game
Kids will come to a gym to play basketball. Coach Mike uses that open door to teach the game at a high level and to talk about faith, character and hard work in a way young athletes remember.
Coach Mike studied Bible & Theology, Youth Ministry and Sports Ministry, and has spent more than 25 years mentoring young people through sports. He works with your pastor and ministry team to plan a camp that fits your church and a follow-up plan that keeps families coming back.
