UMASS FOOTBALL FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND SUPPORTERS:

MISSION STATEMENT:

OBJECTIVES:

I am ecstatic to kick off the 2016 UMass Football campaign. With arguably the highest rated incoming signing class in program history, one of the most electrifying backfields in New England, and the most competitive schedule in program history, the season assures to be a captivating one. Similarly, it also will be a captivating season for the UMass Gridiron Club, our booster club for UMass Football, as it continues its support of ensuring that our Minutemen have every opportunity for optimal success on and off the field.

The mission of the UMass Football Gridiron Club is to strengthen the University’s football program by encouraging private and volunteer leadership from Minutemen across the country. The UMass Gridiron Club shall support initiatives as requested by the Head Football Coach and the University of Massachusetts Athletic Department.

As the official booster club for the University of Massachusetts Football program, the UMass Gridiron Club seeks to Engage, Educate, and Empower young men to achieve optimal success. The UMass Gridiron Club envisions being the premier athletic booster club locally, state-wide, and regionally. Being a member of this club provides opportunities to collaborate with fellow loyal UMass Football friends and fans in accomplishing the mission and bringing the vision of the club to pass. UMass Gridiron Club members provide financial support as requested to help the Minutemen compete at the FBS level, provide leadership development programming for the student-athletes, and sponsor functions for club members. Funds raised by the UMass Football Gridiron Club go directly to support the UMass Football program. Funding and functions are consistent with the applicable NCAA rules governing booster clubs and their supporters.

Competing in just our fifth Division I FBS season and our first season as one of only three FBS independent programs in the country, UMass football aims to make you proud by capitalizing on the extraordinary opportunities ahead. I am sincerely grateful and appreciative to the UMass Gridiron Club Board of Directors and all of our UMass Gridiron Club members for their continued and unwavering support – Thank You! To the many UMass alumni and friends that have yet to join the UMass Gridiron Club family, there is no better time then now! With the addition of your partnership and investment in our football program, we are

ensured to continue building upon the extensive and proud UMass Football championship tradition.

IT’S GAME TIME! It’s time to Unite The Masses and elevate our Passion, Pride, and Support to the next level as we continue to assist in positioning our beloved UMass Football program for sustainable success. Can I count on you as a member of our team? I ask that you consider renewing or demonstrating for the first time your level of commitment to the program by joining the UMass Gridiron Club today! Along with our players, coaches and staff, I look forward to the excitement that our 2016 season will bring! UNITE THE MASSES!
