Our Vision for the LDC
A training ground to develop leaders and prepare them to be sent into the world to make disciples
While we want our athletes to become better players on the field, we know that few will ever play sports at a professional level. For this reason, it is important to prepare our athletes to be successful in all walks of life. Our goal is for our athletes to become well-rounded men and women of God that leave our academy and make a difference in communities all across the island. With the completion of Phase III, GO Sports Academies will be able to mentor, disciple, and coach thousands of future leaders every day.
The Land in 2013
In 2013, GO Ministries purchased 24 acres of land for $1.2 million. After waiting five years for permits, we were able to cut down trees and begin building. Phase I of the project was completed in October, 2017, as our hired architect finished drawings for the master plan. Water cisterns were dug and temporary batting cages and fields were set up for our baseball academy. We broke ground in October, 2017 to begin Phase II.
The Future
The LDC will allow our reach to expand dramatically into other areas of Santiago and different cities all over the island. The LDC will also allow us to host other kids and families outside of our daily sports academies – through camps, tournaments, and events on a weekly basis. Thousands will step foot on the LDC land each week to experience mutual transformation and become the future leaders of the Dominican Republic.
