Real Victory

I got together with a bunch of Christians who play Ultimate Frisbee a while back and kicked around ideas that might help establish and grow a community of Christians in the sport. There are other Christian people around who play, but we don’t all know each other, and many find the culture at tournaments a little difficult at times to reconcile with their faith and practice.

Real Victory primarily exists to help Christians in the Ultimate Frisbee scene in Australia connect with one another, and to provide some mutual encouragement to keep going with following Jesus. One of the great things about Christian brothers and sisters is that we’re a great encouragement to one another to keep persevering, to keep running the race, knowing the hope we have set before us.

The aims that we chucked around were the following:

1. Get discussions running on any questions about the Christian faith
2. Get to know other Christians in the frisbee community.
3. Give each other some accountability during tournaments. (Not in a bad way, but you know)
4. Ask about how to handle situations that come up regarding conflicts between frisbee and faith
5. Introduce topics for study, ie. we could have continuous threads running about various sections of the bible
6. Have general fellowship with each other
7. Make online prayer requests… if that’s not too awkward for people.
8. Introduce new people to the concepts and beliefs of Christianity
9. Challenge each other to really show God’s love to everyone!

It’s primarily aimed at those who play at a tournament level, but open to anyone in the frisbee scene. No, you don’t have to be a Christian to join (but understand that this is what we’re on about).
