Athletes for Christ
Lehigh Valley Family
Written by Quay Brashear, Athletes for Christ
Parents, have you ever wanted your child to participate in a youth sports program, but were afraid because of all the horror stories you heard about long practices, screaming coaches, and win at all cost attitudes?
Moms, have you ever wanted to take a fitness class or work out with other women in a setting where you will not be judged, and at the end of the workout feel empowered and encouraged because your class not only focused on you physically but emotionally and spiritually as well?
Dads, have you ever wanted to compete at a high level on team sports such as softball and golf, or be part of a fitness program where the environment encourages you to be the best husband, father, and male role model you can be, while training you physically and spiritually?
If anyone in your family answered yes to the questions above, then Athletes for Christ has a place for you.Athletes for Christ is a non-denominational sports ministry based here in the LehighValley. The focus of AFC is to provide team sports and activities where people get fit physically and spiritually. We have programs for children as young as three and activities for people as old as 95.
The AFC children’s programs include basketball, flag football, and soccer teams. We currently have three basketball teams, two flag football teams, and six soccer teams. They all compete against three greater LehighValley youth programs. For girls, we offer cheerleading, ballet classes, and a Girls for God Program that teaches girls about self-esteem, honoring their bodies, and being the young lady God wants them to be.These activities are geared for children ages 3 - 14.
Moms, we have over 180 ladies a week who take our fitness classes. This women’s only program is designed for you to feel rejuvenated and restored. We offer 12Zumba Fitness Classes and three yoga classes, and we are in the process of adding a walking club and a running club in the next couple of months.
Dads, we have a place for you as well. We currently offer softball and golf. During play this past summer, one of our softball teams won three championships. Our golf outings are second to none. We are also looking to add flag football and basketball to our program in the fall of 2010.
Our family activities include hikes, bike rides, exercise classes, and family backyard games.For more information go to www.athletesforchrist.net.
