International Sports Federation Teams (ISF Teams)
Welcome to ISF Sports Missions. We run global projects that reach the poor and marginalised with the good news of hope that Jesus brings to all who follow his way: a life that is vibrant, active and engaged with Him and with others. What better way than to do this through sports!
We especially work to mobilize University and College teams finding opportunities that enable your organization, and the volunteers within them, to fulfil your overall objectives in line with God's call to take the gospel to the ends of the earth, and to do this through the exciting world of sports.

What Others Say
Thoughts From ISF Teams Alumni
I am beyond excited to serve with International Sports Federation. My heart has been touched by the way they use sports around the world to share the Gospel. I know my players that have gone on an ISF project have been profoundly impacted and it is my goal to get as many players as possible to go on a trip before they graduate.
Bruce Deaton Head Coach, Women's Soccer - Evangel University
I had the priviledge to go with my son on an ISF basketball project to Madagascar. To say it was a life changing experience would be an understatment. I literally saw my son change right in front of my eyes. He and I both came away from the trip with a new appreciation for sports as a tool for missions as well as a better world view.
Steve Pulley Parent and Participant
I was at a pivotal time in my life when I discovered ISF. I had no idea that sports missions even existed. I have loved and played soccer all my life and to be able to use it for missions has been amazing. I would tell you that if you have any desire to go on a sports mission trip with ISF to do it!
