"I love the sense of satisfaction that I get when I’ve done a swimming workout or race, and know that I gave my whole being and heart to God in every moment of the swim. It’s the best worship I can offer him."

The heart of a coach, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, 2005 ISBN 0-8307-3851-7 (162 pages)
"The Heart of the coach makes it easy to receive spiritual training via short and meaningful times in God's word" according to the blurb. There are 90 devotions by 45 writers - coaches, FCA staff, former players etc.
Each one follows a similar format: a Bible verse, the devotional, 3 discussion questions, further Scripture passages and a prayer. The devotions generally start with a sporting illustration but more in the style of an object lesson than an integrated piece.
