Sports Beyond ● Home ●
Sports Beyond began in 1989 when a couple pastors and several community leaders had the desire to make a positive impact in the lives of youth, athletes and coaches through sports from a Christian perspective. Our motivation was to share with others the love we received from knowing Jesus and encourage others in their journey by providing quality sports activities. We find our inspiration from these verses in the Bible…
“But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining for what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”
— Philippians 3:13-14
Our Mission

What does it mean to be 'faith based?
“Faith-based” can mean a lot of things. Everyone puts their faith in something or someone.
“Faith-based” to Sports Beyond means this:
We believe that Jesus is the Way, Truth, and Life.
We believe that Hope and Life and Peace and Love and Forgiveness are found in Him.
Therefore, we follow Him.
And following Him means:
We attempt to live the way Jesus lived.
We believe what Jesus believed.
Like Jesus, we love and serve every individual regardless of their race or religion or gender or identity or values or beliefs or anything else.
We don’t force Jesus on anyone and we don’t require anyone to believe what we believe.
This is the way of Jesus and we are His followers.
