WHY SHOULD I ADOPT AN ATHLETE Student-athletes make numerous sacrifices over the course of a season in order to compete at the level necessary for intercollegiate athletics. They also are tremendously dedicated to their academics in order to remain eligible for competition. As a result, most studentathletes suffer the financial strain, not being able to carry a part time job during the season. Did you know? On average athletes spend 60 hours per week committed to school and sport:
Training • 6 Hours Playing • 6 Hours In Class • 20 Hours
Practicing • 7 Hours Travelling • 6 Hours Homework • 15 Hours
Adopting an athlete is a great way to show support for the growth of our community as well as supporting our future leaders in the community. GO RIDGEBACKS!!!
