Coaches

FCA Coaches Ministry is the ministry program to coaches through huddles, events, training, and resources.


The Coach is one of the most influential individuals in our society. It has been said that a coach will influence more people in one year than most people will in a lifetime. FCA seeks to engage, equip, and empower coaches to grow in their faith and become transformational in how they coach their athletes and influence other coaches.


Coaches Huddles in the St. Charles Metro Northwest area provide a great community and a way to grow in your faith - both as a follower of Christ and as a coach.

Our Team

Dave Schall

Area Director

Support St. Charles Metro Northwest

Dave first got involved in FCA as a high school student in 1991 and eventually became a huddle coach 10 years later. He has served as a volunteer in several roles at various FCA events in the years since. Dave played soccer, baseball, and ran track in high school. After high school, he played college and minor league professional soccer, before becoming a teacher, coach, and principal. Dave is married to his wife, Stephanie, and they have two children, Madeline and Colton.

When asked how he feels about joining the FCA team, Dave said: "What better job is there than getting to hang out with coaches who love Jesus and with other people who love sports and love Jesus? I always saw myself working for FCA someday, but I thought it would be years down the road. God decided it would be now. And I'm glad He did."

Megan Bethel

Programs, Events, & Development

Megan ran cross country and played volleyball in high school but first learned about the ministry of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes when she was invited to a Friends Dinner. She was immediately excited about FCA and wanted to become involved. It was a few years before God led her to join the FCA staff. What a journey that was! Megan is so thankful for God's faithfulness in guiding every aspect of her life.

Megan is married to her high school sweetheart. They have four children, both biological and through the beauty of adoption. Her happy place is snuggling under a pile of kids and her two 75-pound lap dogs. She has been teaching orchestra for the last fifteen years and looks forward to this adventure in the ministry of FCA.
