WHAT IS TRAVEL BALL CHURCH
It all started in a real moment.
The founders of Travel Ball Church were like a lot of families. They were loading up the car, packing coolers, and spending weekends at travel sports tournaments. As their kids played game after game, one thing stood out. There were thousands of athletes and families gathered at the fields and courts, but almost no focus of Jesus.
So, Travel Ball Church was born.
Our mission is to minister to athletes and families where they are.
We do that by setting up a tent at tournaments, handing out free swag, leading pregame prayer, sharing devotionals, and gathering with teams right there on the field or court.
We speak life, share the Gospel, and create space for real moments that matter.
But it doesn’t end there.
We believe in the local church. It’s where people grow, find community, and are discipled over time. Our role isn’t to replace the church but to support it. That’s why everything we do points people back to a local church where they can be baptized, grow in their faith, and keep walking with Jesus long after the game day experience.
We help bridge the gap between travel sports and faith, creating a pathway from the game to the Gospel and then into lasting community.
At Travel Ball Church, we’re rooted in God’s Word and driven by purpose. We believe every athlete, coach, and parent was created on purpose and for a purpose by a God who loves them. And we believe Jesus should be our focus not just on Sunday, but every day.
PAUSE - PRAY - PLAY
Pause – Take a moment before the game, before a big decision, or in a tough moment to reflect on your purpose and remember that your identity is found in Christ.
Pray – Thank God for your talents, seek his wisdom and guidance in everything you do.
Play – Compete with character, integrity, and a heart that honors Christ.
