Coaching Services
Coaching a team can be a lot of work; leading a league with multiple teams becomes much harder, and running multiple leagues with multiple teams can be extremely overwhelming. CSRM wants to help! Check out the many options we offer for our team of experts to be able to come alongside to equip your local church to reach your communities!


AGON Institute
AGON is a Greek New Testament word translated as "contest," or "competition" and came to also be used to describe the field or arena where the ancient athletic games, contests and races occurred. The AGON Institute of Sports Ministry is specifically designed to prepare SR&F Outreach Ministers for the "contest and competition" as experienced in the joys, rigors and challenges of contemporary ministry. To be a minister of the Gospel requires a sacrificial denial of self, and the willingness to endure a variety of obstacles even occasional persecutions. The goal of The AGON Institute is to resource, train, equip and empower SR&F Ministers to be Strategically-Relevant and Efficiently-Effective in their struggle to incarnate the Gospel to an increasingly secular world.

Domestic Ministries
CSRM is a para-church ministry. This means that while we as an organization are not an organized church body, we are able to come along side of the local church and provide assistance to allow for that congregation to reach their community in the most effective and efficient way possible!
