THE TEAM
TEAM LEADER: Andrea Aldrich & Cisco Ospina
This trip will be focused on the efforts of BVSA which uses soccer as a way to teach character and share the Gospel with young men – many of whom come from homes plagued by abuse and lack hope for the future. You will spend a lot of time with the Rhinos (the soccer players) and their families and encouraging them with the love of Christ. Our goal is that this team will take what God does in and through them in the field and reinvest it into our communities here at home so we can reach our neighbors with the hope of Jesus!

All applications must be submitted no later than 120 days before departure for international trips and 90 days before domestic trips. Please note, applying for a GO Team does not confirm your spot on the team. Once applications are reviewed, you may be requested to participate in an informal interview with a Team Leader. Following review, you will be notified of your acceptance or status on a waiting list. If a team is full you can still apply and be put on a waiting list should a spot become available. Once your application is accepted for any team you will be required to pay a deposit ($100 for international and $25 for domestic teams). The deposit will confirm your spot on the team.
Buena Vista Sports Academy
The Buena Vista Sports Academy exists to take the gospel of Jesus Christ to tough places around the world, disciple boys and young men through daily Bible teaching, plant or partner with local churches, and see individuals, families, and communities come to saving faith in Christ.
The ministry of BVSA focuses primarily on two things:
#1: Discipling boys and young men.
#2: Training and sending missionaries/pastors
Founded in 2010, BVSA is an evangelism & discipleship ministry that uses the game of soccer to get into tough places around the world. We are committed to the Great Commission of Jesus Christ, as found in Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:15, and Acts 1:8.
What began as a simple step of faith in 2008 has grown into a display of God's grace and provision through the generous support of his people. We have witnessed his faithfulness time and time again, which has strengthened our faith and emboldened our steps. We trust that as we lay our lives down for his sake, he will continue to use BVSA for the growth of the church and the glory of his name.
Pray with us as we preach Christ crucified to young men, their current and future families, and their entire communities! And please consider partnering with us as we use Soccer Academies as a bridge to get there.
