How Do I Develop A Team In My Area?

Thank you for supporting Team Alpha in your area.  We want to help make it as easy as possible for you to recruit a team.  Follow the steps to get started:

Step #1: Select an event to enter

• See the events Team Alpha is already doing - Examples >>
• How do I find an event? Websites to help: 
  Potential Competitions >>
  Marathon Guide >>  
  Race Finder >>
• Contact teamalpha@alphausa.org for additional help
• Note: If the event is for a cause, check with the organizers if they would be happy for your team to enter to represent Alpha - most are!

Step #2: After you find an event, Register it so we can post it

Step #3: Recruit as many people as possible to enter your selected event and represent Team Alpha  Tools to help

Step #4: In each church find a Team Alpha Coordinator (this could be someone who oversees sports ministry - if one exists!):

• Recruit (for example) 10 people to enter the event and represent Alpha
• Encourage participants to raise, for example a minimum of $250. 
• Alpha USA will collect online sign-ups and connect with you to confirm the order a few weeks before your event.  Note: the cost of the T-shirts will be charged  to your regional Alpha account.  

Step #5: The Church Coordinator should ask each team member to complete the Team Alpha Participant steps.

Step #6: Use the Downloadable Resources to spread the word.
