What are AIA events athletes can participate in?
Some regions of the country have Winter Retreats, usually held in January or February. Check the http://www.athletesinaction.org/ website for information and brochures. Anywhere from 100 – 200 college athletes from several states come together for a weekend retreat to hear challenging bible teaching and attend seminars relevant to their Christian life. In Ft. Collins, Colorado, the week-long Ultimate Training Camp teaches athletes how to worship God through sport. Also in Ft.Collins, the Colorado Project is an 8-week experience covering many of the same topics as the camp, but adding evangelism, discipleship and ministry training. For 3 weeks in Los Angeles, the LA Urban Project pursues marginalized people and confronts issues of poverty and racism with the gospel. International and stateside tours with competing sports teams compete and create opportunities to share the gospel wherever they go. For a list of tours, dates, and other information, see the AIA website (http://www.athletes
