Sports Ministry & Coaching Team
The team will work alongside local football coaches, leading camps, working with schools and possibly doing some prison ministry. The programme will include evangelism and outreach activities delivered alongside football training. A typical day will involve delivering skills training and drills, matches and mini-tournaments, bible storytelling and more.
Don’t worry if you’ve never coached before. Orientation and training will be provided.
Team Details
An all age team of up to 12 people. Most people speak English, however some use local languages. Skills that will be useful are sport, youth work, evangelism and preaching.
