What is KICKOFF?

KICKOFF is an evangelistic youth event bringing various youth ministries together for a night of large scale games and a Gospel message.

Everyone that attends will be placed into 1 of 4 teams, each represented by a team name and colour. The four teams will compete against each other in various games throughout the program, accumulating points for their team. The winning team will be announced at the end of the night. The Gospel message will be preached at around the halfway point in the night.

Why run KICKOFF?

We run KICKOFF for 2 main reasons.

Firstly, as an evangelistic tool that Youth Ministries can use to deliver the Gospel message to their teenagers, as well as allowing them to invite their friends along who may not typically go to a “youth group”. There is nothing more important to us than seeing lives saved and funnelled back into the local Church for discipling and growth.

Secondly, we run KICKOFF to help different youth ministries from the same region to connect with each other and network. Together as believers we can be united and it goes a long way to show our teens that there is a wider body of believers out there!
