AthleteShare
giving student athletes a platform to inspire and uplift others by sharing their faith in Christ
About our founder
AthleteShare was founded by David MacLeod, a junior at the University of Alabama. Raised in a Christian home that loved Alabama football, David’s path to Tuscaloosa felt almost inevitable. Originally from Northern Virginia, he developed a love for sports early on, playing baseball through high school.
In the summer of 2024, one question weighed heavily on his heart: How can I use my time in college to impact the Kingdom of God? That question sparked the idea for AthleteShare — a platform designed to help Christian athletes boldly share their faith in Christ.
David is majoring in finance with a minor in sales and is an active member of the Alpha Rho chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi, a professional business fraternity. He’s also worked with the University of Alabama Athletics Department, supporting both NCAA baseball and softball.
Driven by his passion for Jesus, college athletics, and entrepreneurship, David launched AthleteShare to give faith a voice in the world of sports.
FAQs
-
AthleteShare’s process involves 3 simple steps:
Athletes get in contact with AthleteShare through either Instagram (@athlete.share) and/or athlete-share.com
Athletes set up a meeting to discuss their testimony, faith, and purpose for being interested in speaking at an official AthleteShare event. Here they will be asked to run through a series of questions to ensure their message is appropriate for audiences and aligns with the mission of AthleteShare LLC.
The athlete may then be offered the opportunity to publicly share their testimony and faith in Jesus Christ with their peers and strangers alike. This final step is conducted at an officially sanctioned AthleteShare event in either the spring or the fall.
-
AthleteShare events are informal in nature, and revolve solely around the testimonies of the athletes. Each athlete sharing will have a designated time slot at the event where they will share their testimony and faith in Christ to a crowd speaking into a microphone. This system remains the same for each athlete speaking. The location of the event and details may vary event to event, so stay posted!
-
Any Christian athlete currently attending the University of Alabama is encouraged to reach out! However, it is important to note that Step 2 of the AthleteShare process maintains that the ultimate decision to grant an athlete the opportunity to speak is entirely up to the discretion of AthleteShare LLC.

Our logo’s Story
AthleteShare’s logo is a visually simple, yet sleek design that points towards the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross.
The nail that pierces through the center of the logo represents the nails that pierced Jesus’ hands during the crucifixion, as detailed in John 20:25.
The color scheme is an homage to both the University of Alabama’s main color being red, as well as a representation of the blood shed by our Lord and Savior on our behalf.
