UplifT Sports is offering flag football for Boys Ages 7-12 and will run from September 15 to November 10 on Saturdays from 10AM to Noon at Pierce Park in East Windsor. UplifT Sports is a ministry of Windsor Locks Congregational Church EFCA that seeks to build faith and character by investing in youth athletes. We’ll have a lot of fun. Our typical session includes time for individual & team drills, and then a game. Boys will learn all the fundamentals of football for positions like quarterback, running back, wide receiver, linebacker and defensive back. In my life, I have seen God teach me many lessons of faith when playing sports. Athletic competition and practice provided me with a proving ground for applying God’s word in areas like teamwork, integrity, God-reliance, respect for others, trust, keeping hope, and giving encouragement. There is an element of training hard and competing that helps us see our need for God. In getting feedback from a coach and striving for excellence on the field, athletes learn to give their best for the Lord and their teammates. When athletes see their faith in action, they can translate this trust in God toward much more important areas of life. God blessed me with a High School football career that lead to being named All-Jersey Shore and recruited by Division 1 programs. Now, God has really blessed me with the chance to share my experience through coaching. The cost of the program is $27 to cover the cost of a football jersey that you will keep. All you need to bring is water to stay hydrated, and I recommend wearing cleats. To register or for questions email me at ajr2@sbcglobal.net God Bless You, Adam Recla
