News from Campbellsville University

Twelve young men from the Lincoln Village Center visited Campbellsville University for a basketball clinic on Wednesday, April 10, 2012.



Dr. G. Ted Taylor's Christian Coaching class hosted a Gospel-driven basketball clinic for the 12 in the Powell Athletic Center on the campus of Campbellsville University. The clinic included skill stations and team building activities, as well as lunch and a devotion.

"We were pleased to once again host these young men and their supervisors from Lincoln Village," said John Chowning, vice president for church and external relations and executive assistant to the president. "The class, taught by Dr. Ted Taylor and assisted by Logan Hazelwood, initiated this partnership once again, and it afforded all involved with a good opportunity for ministry, fellowship, and sports involvement. This was a positive experience for all involved."

Taylor's class hosts Lincoln Village once per semester.

The Lincoln Village young men played a double-elimination tournament after being divided into four teams. Individuals who won the titles of Most Valuable Player, Champion of Character and Mr. Hustle received signed basketballs from the CU Tiger basketball team, presented by assistant basketball coach, Justin Watson. Team champions were also given championship T-shirts, and all participants were presented with a Bible signed by the students of the Christian Coaching class.

Sharing the Gospel was central to all activities. On center court, CU graduate assistant Logan Hazelwood spoke with the boys, and reminded them that Jesus is a life-changer, and the greatest reward.

"I was so encouraged by our class and their initiative to build relationships with the Lincoln Village guys. If it was this encouraging to me, I can't imagine what it was like for Lincoln Village," said Hazelwood.

The young men were accompanied by Mike Smith, recreational director at Lincoln Village and a CU student. -Sarah Ames
