Fantasy Football is HERE!
August 25, 2015
Every August millions of people get really excited. Why? Because it’s the start of football season! The pre-season is underway for the pros, high school games start at the end of the month and the little ones are taking to the rec fields with determination. Families and friends are coming together to watch football at many different locations, and lots of fans are happy.
As football has grown in popularity over the years, so has Fantasy Football. In fact, millions of people play Fantasy Football every year and it is growing at a very rapid pace.
Well, over the past two years New Life’s Chantilly Campus has hosted a successful Fantasy Football league. Not only is it fun, it keeps you interested in games, even if your favorite team is having a bad year, and it is a great way to build new friendships, develop community with other people in the church, and even invite some new people who haven’t discovered God yet to possibly hear about Christ for the first time.
What?!? Really Tom? All those things can happen by just playing Fantasy Football?
YEAH! It can happen and has happened. I started a league with some teens 12 years ago and of the original members 7 of them still playing. It has brought about new friendships in which we have a blast together both during the season and off-season, as well as introducing some people to Jesus over the years. The bond and friendships I have with these now twenty-somethings is very strong and lasting…in large part because of the creation of this league.
So I personally invite you to join one of New Life’s two Fantasy Football League options. Click which league best fits you below:
- Chantilly & Linton Hall League, contact Andrew McDaniel
- Online Campus League
You DON’T have to be a regular attender to join this league, just someone who wants to meet new people and have a blast trying to be CHAMPION!
I hope to see you in one of the leagues!
Tom
