The purpose of the league is to provide the youth of the tri-county (Hunterdon, Mercer, Somerset) areawith a low-cost opportunity to learn football skills in a fun and safe environment. In addition, there will be a significant focus on faith (Christian) and character development. All children ages 5-14 are welcome, regardless of faith background. Playing time and participation in football activities will not be linked to participation in any faith-based activities. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to meet with guest speakers from local professional, college and high school sports teams. 

ATHLETES IN ACTION
Our Mission...
Is to see a Christ follower on every team, in every sport and in every country around the globe. 
What we do...
We develop athletic influencers into Christ-centered leaders. AIA staff work directly with thousands of college and professional athletes and coaches worldwide. Staff reach athletic influencers for Christ and train them to talk about the Lord one-to-one, with the media, and in other public forums to help fulfill the great commission. 
Where we exist...
On 125 university campuses, 35 pro sports teams, and have a presence in 85 countries. 

Athletes and coaches have the potential to influence billions of people. At AIA Football, we believe that sports dominates global entertainment, making it one of the most powerful communication platforms in the world. Two-thirds of Americans believe that athletes are more influential in American society than spiritual leaders. 

Additionally, American football is the most popular sport in the U.S., and at the same time is exploding in popularity around the world! But, who is influencing these athletes? What attitudes and actions will be emulated by those who look up to them?
