High School Athletes
FCA Athletes Ministry seeks to lead every athlete in a growing relationship with Christ and His church through huddles, events, trainings and resources.
Our prayer is that athletes would know they are more than numbers on a scoreboard or a name on a jersey. We strive to ensure every athlete understands that they are loved by God, regardless of how they perform. By understanding this, we believe FCA athletes will return to their teams and campuses empowered to lead other coaches and athletes in a growing relationship with Christ.
Huddles
A huddle is an FCA certified small group Bible study for athletes. Huddles can be team specific or multi-sport bringing together athletes from an entire school or area.

Did you know that this year we had over 2000 coaches and athletes regularly attend one of our huddles?!? And we had 350 junior high and senior high athletes attend one of our camps this summer!
We are blessed to share the hope of Jesus to coaches and athletes across Greater Denver. Our work is made possible because of generous gifts from donors. This GivingTuesday, your gift can fuel our mission to reach EVERY coach and athlete in metro Denver. You can give through the link in our bio!
Yesterday, 100 high school athletes from Greater Denver arrived at UNC in Greeley for our CO FCA sports camp! Pray that the next few days would grow them in their faith and athletic abilities!

Dr. King relentlessly pursued his dream of standing for racial equality, love, and justice for all. As we observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day, it’s important to reflect on the messages, guidance, and godly wisdom he left behind.

Big announcement! Get excited for this year's annual ministry theme, Pursue. Every coach and athlete is pursuing something: earning a scholarship, winning a championship or landing a contract. As the stakes rise, the drive behind that pursuit intensifies. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but what if pursuing those things ultimately isn’t healthy or good for us in the long run? Join us this year as we dive into pursuing the things of God. #FCAPursue #FCAGreaterDenver

2. How are you going to disciple them?
