• to engage young people in high quality recreational activities within a supportive Christian environment. Helping to promote their social, physical, emotional and spiritual well-being, thereby enabling them to grow in maturity as individuals and members of society.

• to share the unconditional love of God with them - by service and example - with the hope that, ultimately, they may  understand more about the good news of Jesus Christ.
