About

Helping athletes take their faith, passion and sport to new places

Story

When you are an athlete there is lots to think about: figuring out which papers you’re doing if you are a student, how to manage or find a job, and who you will spend your time with in your limited free time. If you love sports like we do and consider sports performance a big part of your life, then you will also be thinking about how to fit your training and competition schedule around classes and/or job, figure out balance between sport, job, study and family as well as where to find the best clubs and coaching.

Athletes in Action is a group of students and sports people who understand the demands that get placed on an athlete’s life. We’re here to help. We believe that knowing Jesus is necessary to transform an athlete’s life and the world around them for good. So we also believe in helping athletes take their passion, faith and sport to new places.

Through our action groups and weekly meetings you’ll have an opportunity to connect with other sports players. Not only that, but you’ll also have the opportunity to consider the questions of faith and their ramifications for life and sport.

Currently, you can find us as an official club at the University of Auckland. We are also around at AUT and AUT North Shore but we are not yet an official club. Additionally, if you are not attending uni, we have staff available and coordinating groups outside of uni. Send us an email to find out more today!
