Why Have Champs / Life Skills?

Student-athletes face unparalleled challenges. On the field, there is increased visibility and pressure to excel. Off the field, student-athletes must endure hectic travel schedules and the stress of "life under a microscope." With such demands and pressures, student-athletes do not have enough opportunities to experience life as part of the general population. Often, this leaves them not always prepared for life outside of athletics.

How CHAMPS / Life Skills Works

By focusing on "real life" skills and personal development, the CHAMPS/Life Skills Program not only assists the student-athletes with meeting daily challenges, but also enhances student-athlete's growth in their college years and beyond.

Life After College Preparation

The CHAMPS/Life Skills Program serves as a means to prepare student-athletes for life after college by focusing on five areas:

  • Academic Excellence
  • Athletic Excellence
  • Personal Development
  • Career Development
  • Community Outreach
