Train Hard, Give Back

Ball State Football is currently in the summer workout phase of the 2021 off-season. As members of the team, they are held to a high standard of hard work and dedication as they prepare for an opportunity to win another MAC title and “Run It Back.”

The summer off-season is a time that most players have less academic responsibility, and more time to train for the upcoming season. With some of this extra time, the Ball State football team wishes to give back to the Muncie community, and in particular, its youth.

The Train Hard, Give Back initiative is focused on support for after school programs to elementary students in the Muncie Community Schools district. With this initiative, the hope is to raise necessary funds to get some of these programs on their feet, provide equipment/uniforms, and help with other costs that will allow for children in the community to be able to participate in activities that focus on fun, competing, and teamwork.

Starting July 2nd, Ball State Football will begin accepting donations through GoFundMe for Train Hard, Give Back that will run through July 30th. The team’s goal is to reach $10,000.

The Ball State Football program believes that every child should have the opportunity to experience the power of team sport and the long-term positive influences that can come with it. 

Let’s make a difference!
