National Radio Football Research
Give thanks for opportunities to speak on national radio stations about recent research conducted in partnership with Eido research mapping Christian activity within men’s professional football. Pray that the report, which shows that 75% of clubs in the top six tiers of English Football have Christian players in first team squads, would encourage readers and enable discipleship to grow within football.

Young Performance Athletes (YPAs)
Give thanks for the two groups of YPAs (15-17 & 19-23yr old) that meet regularly online to read the Bible, share fellowship, and pray. Pray these groups would be a genuine support to each YPA as they go through the highs and lows of performance pathway sport.

Praise God for the teams of leaders that will serve across 10 Sports Plus camps this summer. Pray that every leader would reflect God’s love to the young people both in action and word as they serve and that leaders would be encouraged in their faith as they leave Sports Plus.

British Athletics Championships
Give thanks for the opportunity we have to support a number of Christian elite track and field athletes through online and in-person Bible studies and 1-2-1s.

Giving thanks for 50 years, and pray for the next 50...
2026 is special for Christians in Sport; on Wednesday, 18th February, we marked fifty years since a small group met with the conviction that God cared deeply about sport, and that He would act in the world of sport if they prayed.
Just as the pioneers of Christians in Sport did 50 years ago, we've written 5 goals to pray towards. Click below to watch our 50th anniversary film and pray with us that God would continue to move in the world of sport.
And please join us to celebrate 50 years of God's faithfulness in sport, hear the vision for the future, and discover how we can enable the next season together at one of our upcoming Partner Evenings.
