Fellowship of Christian Athletes

Fellowship of Christian Athletes
By Paige Glenn
          FCA stands for Fellowship Christian Athletes. It is a group of Sterling students who meet on Mondays in Room 313 between 2:40 and 2:50 to discuss Christian beliefs and opinions. Anyone is welcome to pop in the classroom. The door is always open and the group loves seeing new faces! FCA is flexible with students’ conflicting schedules if they have meets, other meetings, games and practices. Come when you can! Moreover, you do not have to be an athlete to join.
          FCA participates in several different avtivities throughout the year.  Last year, the FCA held its first dodgeball tournament to reach out to others to have a good time. There were over ten teams that competed, and each one had the great opportunity to enjoy themselves. Each team had the chance of winning best dressed for team apparel, winning the best team name, and becoming the champions. Jason Avant, a wide receiver of the Philadelphia Eagles, was the guest speaker. It was such a blast that some of    the competitors from last year are competing again this year.
 
          You do not have to be athletic to play dodgeball. It is all about having fun and enjoying yourself. Anyone is welcome to come. You can form your team in the gym before the tournament starts. Even if you do not have a team, you can sit on the bleachers and watch a game in the new or old gym.  Come out and join us for a night of fun!
