We are where faith and athletics meet -- to go beyond the game of football. Take the experiences that come with athletics (and some unique to football) and use these to mentor and train young Christian men in how to live the rest of their lives...we are trying to use football as a tool to train young men for adult life!
Serve - Honor - Lead
OUR MISSION
◾To provide an opportunity for young men who don't have a team for which to play football.
◾To provide a Godly environment for football.
◾To work with disciple-building coaches with a positive coaching style
◾To play high intensity football played with honor…for the Lord and our opponents
◾To disciple young men daily in the Scriptures as part of the football experience
◾To develop players for the next level – in Football and for Life
The Christian Athletic League of America is committed to providing the best all around athletic experience. We will provide great coaching so players learn the best technique and strategy, in a positive and enthusiastic environment. We are offering strong competition, the best of the game itself, without the negative aspects that have permeated some youth sports in America today.
OUR SPIRITUAL FOCUS
We set out to ensure that Spiritual focus would always make us different...we teach how to play football in a God honoring way. Our original motto 'BUILDING LEADERS AND SERVANTS THROUGH THE GAME OF FOOTBALL' has since been condensed to, 'SERVE, HONOR, LEAD'. In today's world of athletics, the prevailing emphasis on winning has developed into a belief that "win at all costs" should be the norm. At CALA we accept winning on the field only as a product of serving our Lord with excellence in everything we do...from the weight room to the training room, our athletes are expected to give of the themselves in a way to honor God.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to simply provide an atmosphere where young men can participate in athletics in a way that has escaped our society. Play hard, play by the rules, respect your opponent and remember there is no 'I' in team.
WHAT WE DO
We provide our clubs with everything they need to be successful. The league purchases and maintains player equipment, rents stadiums, provides liability insurance, handles grievances, educates coaches, manages officials...in essence we provide everything necessary for the game day experience.
