When is National Student-athlete Day?

Thursday April 6th

National STUDENT-Athlete Day (NSAD), which is celebrated annually on April 6th, gives the opportunity to recognize student-athletes' contributions.

NATIONAL STUDENT-ATHLETE DAY – April 6

Almost 8 million student-athletes compete in both team and individual sports in the United States. More than 500,000 people will continue their education to the college level. They do well in athletic programs such as track and field, baseball, volleyball, and lacrosse, but academically, too. Additionally, the day honors student-athletes who have a positive influence on their communities by retaining and earning GPAs of 3.0 or higher.

Many student-athletes take on leadership in their communities and serve as role models for others. Some people escape adversity and produce outstanding examples of achievement. Families, schools, and organizations are encouraged to assist their STUDENT-athletes in their endeavors. Cheer them on both on and off the court and field... Support them in their higher goals and aspirations..

#StudentAthleteDay is a worldwide reminder of how to OBSERVE #StudentAthleteDay.
