Spanish term or phrase: UNA META MÁS ALLÁ DEL DEPORTE
This is a slogan / tag line for a sports club. I have a bit of a mental block about this - the best that I can come up with is "Aimed at more than just sport". Ideally, the translation also has to fit into the phrase:

"FORMA PARTE DE NUESTRO CLUB Y TU META SERÁ MAS QUE DEPORTE"

I would very much appreciate a few more ideas from creative genii out there.

Thanks in advance

I adjust this to the phrase as it appears below, it is not the same as the one above.

(Join our club and) your goals will reach beyond sports


Explanation:
This not only keeps the double meaning of goals, but introduces a double meaning of 'reach', in the sense of the ball reaching the goal and also the sense of aspiring to something beyond.

"Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a heaven for?"
