Coaches Highlight: Bjorn Webb

Sports & Fitness Ministry Director at Watermark Wesleyan Church. Hamburg Boys Modified Soccer Coach

The coaches I have had during my years playing soccer have had a great impact on my spiritual life and athletic career. Now, I want to be able to share some of that with younger athletes.  As a coach, the most rewarding thing for me is to see my players learn and grow as individuals through sport. It is rewarding to see them excel as players, students, musicians, brothers, sons, and members of society.

The relationships I have begun to develop with FCA leaders have helped me feel valued and appreciated.  

Seeing what FCA stands for has helped me to shape what I stand for as a coach.  The “why” we play sport has transformed why I coach.  I want to see my players understand how the Gospel of Jesus Christ will change their thinking about “why” they play sport.  I coach and pour into the lives of my players, because of the love of Christ and what he has done for me. I hope that my players will come to know Christ as well, and that someday I will be remembered as a coach that loved them as Christ does.
