About CTO

Coaches TimeOut (CTO) is FCA's coaches marriage ministry designed to help coaches and spouses grow in their relationships with Jesus Christ and each other.

As a coach, you face ever-increasing pressure in today's sports culture. Your high-stakes role often requires long hours, extensive travel, and is subject to public critique. You love it, though. You're called to coach but you're more than a coach. You're a leader, a guide and a mentor.

Even with the best intentions, though, the pressures of coaching come home with you after practices, games and tournaments. This brings a host of unique challenges that you and your spouse must navigate in your marriage.

You're not on this journey alone.

Sometimes, you need a timeout. Your marriage does not need to suffer for the sake of the scoreboard. With a focused game plan, you can win where it matters most – at home.
