What Are D-Teams?
At Intensity, students are divided into small groups called Discipleship Teams (D-Teams) for recreation and Bible study. These special teams are based on the grade they recently completed and provide the opportunity for your students to meet and learn alongside students from others churches from their communities and even from all over the state. Recreation is facilitated between multiple D-Teams in the same age ranges by members of our trained camp staff, who also lead the Bible studies. Each activity serves a specific purpose and is debriefed so students can make application in their lives.
