Support a Specific Team | Springfield College

Being a part of a collegiate athletics program has been an amazing opportunity for me and I have personally seen and benefitted from financial donations from others, which is why I decided to give back to the program. In my time I can see that it truly is a great program, so it was very important to me to take part in helping the team.

Can you make a gift to a specific team?

Yes. Gifts to specific teams are welcomed. These gifts will be used to fund the highest priority for the team, as identified by the coach and director of athletics. Twenty percent of each gift to a specific team will be designated as general athletics support.

Why does part of your gift to a specific team become general athletics support?

No single team competes in a vacuum.

Fields, medical and sports communication staff, graduate assistants, training facilities, and more are shared by teams. Directing 20 percent to general athletics support from each gift made to a specific team allows enhancement of the total student-athlete experience.

Whether used for a new scoreboard at Stagg Field for football, field hockey and men’s and women’s lacrosse; to help a team with international travel; or expand athletic training hours; general athletics support allows the director of athletics to provide resources where they are needed most and will have the largest impact.
