Established in 2003
Opportunity for Impact:
According to one report, 5.9 million youth between the ages of 6-17 play baseball in America. There were 478,029 high school boys’ baseball programs in the United States in 2009. Add in all the players and coaches in the collegiate and professional ranks, and one can readily see the tremendous opportunity to make an impact for Jesus Christ in the baseball community.

Ministry Strategy:
- Resource Development: FCA Baseball will develop resources to help our FCA staff and volunteers better minister in the Baseball Community. The FCA Baseball New Testament is our first such resource with the testimonies of twenty athletes and coaches. We are also developing a series of Team Devotionals written specifically for the Baseball Community.
- Coaches Ministry: Our role is to minister to baseball coaches by encouraging and equipping them to know and better serve Christ through the sport of baseball. FCA Baseball ministers to coaches by getting them connected to FCA Baseball events across the country and coordinating local Baseball Bible Studies, prayer support, and r12 baseball coaches groups. FCA Baseball also empowers FCA staff and volunteers to establish a strategic presence at national and local baseball Coaches Conventions.
- Youth Baseball Clinics: FCA Baseball works with FCA staff and volunteers on developing youth baseball clinics in their cities to minister to the youth baseball community.
