On the weekend of March 20-22, Uncommon Sports Group hosted 24 USG Academy participants and 5 shepherds in Dallas, TX, for an Impact Weekend! USG seeks to connect, encourage, and equip Christians working throughout the college and professional sport industry. A large part of how we accomplish this mission is through the USG Academy and Impact Weekend. These weekends allow Academy graduates to put what they have learned in the virtual Academy into action, such as networking with present leaders of the college and pro sport industry, fellowshipping with other Christians in sports, and being challenged to grow in their walks with Christ.
One of our participants during the Impact Weekend, Elizabeth Hornak, is presently working as an Account Executive for Group Sales with the Charlotte Hornets. Read below to hear a testimony of her experience during the Impact Weekend:
"My favorite site visit was the Cowboys stadium. I have been working in sports for roughly 5 years now and have never seen a stadium like that before. It’s massive! It was very cool to get a tour of the place and envision what it could be like working for an NFL team.
I absolutely recommend any Christian working in sports to apply for the Academy and participate in an Impact Weekend. The USG staff pours into their members professionally and most importantly spiritually. You are covered in prayers by people who genuinely have your best interest because Christ is at the center of it all! We are all here to help one another in your career and walk with Jesus.”
USG is incredibly appreciative of our Clean Out For A Cause donors for their generosity and for making events like these possible. As we send these new USG members out, we’re confident that they are prepared and equipped to be Christ-centered leaders within the college and pro sport industry.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support!
