Who is the Athlete Overnight Retreat for?

You as a collegiate athlete. Additionally, it is best experience with others from your team. So, if you know teammates who find faith important or would simply come because you asked them, have them register!

Where do I register?

Please register through the Athletes Overnight Retreat website. Please plan on paying your registration cost before arriving to the retreat.

Are scholarships available?

Yes, please contact your InterVarsity staff if you are in need of a scholarship for this event. If you attended Catalyst Conference 2024, you qualify for $65 off the registration cost (you pay $35 deposit). Ask a staff how you can apply for those scholarships.

What can athletes expect when they come?

The goal of the overnight is for Athletes to experience God. This is accomplished by meeting together, having fun and embracing a spiritual vision to take back to your team. We will have official times together starting Saturday at 12pm (no lunch provided). Sunday will begin with breakfast, we will end our time together at 12pm (no lunch provided). Our official time together is scheduled for spiritual instruction, fun and time for individual and small group interactions.

When does it start and end?

The Overnight Retreat is 24 hours. It starts at 12pm on Saturday, and starts 12pm on Sunday.

Is this a lock-in? Will I get any sleep?

It is not a lock-in. We will have some official sessions for training and fun throughout our time. We will enjoy the later evening together on Saturday but will have a defined “lights out” time. One of the goals of the retreat is to refresh you as an athlete. Not to send you home tired and worn out.

What should I bring?

Overnight and sleeping items. Additionally, we will move around for light game play. Optional: Bible, journal and writing utensil (However, we will provide most of what you need for activities and the training).

When should I arrive?

You can arrive at your location starting at 12pm at Green Lake Conference Center.

Are meals provided?

Saturday dinner and Sunday breakfast is provided for registered retreat attender. Please plan to eat before you arrive on Friday evening. FYI: snacks will be provided throughout.
