What is a Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC)?
A student-athlete advisory committee (SAAC) is a committee made up of student-athletes assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience. The SAAC also offers input on the rules, regulations and polices that affect student-athletes' lives on NCAA member institution campuses.
Functions of campus SAACs:
-
Promote communication between athletics administration and student-athletes.
-
Disseminate information.
-
Provide feedback and insight into athletics department issues.
-
Generate a student-athlete voice within the campus athletics department formulation of policies.
-
Build a sense of community within the athletics program involving all athletics teams.
-
Solicit student-athlete responses to proposed conference and NCAA legislation.
-
Organize community service efforts.
-
Create a vehicle for student-athlete representation on campus-wide committees (e.g., student government).
-
Promote a positive student-athlete image on campus.
ATTENTION ALL STUDENT-ATHLETES
Fan Appreciation Days- Free Prizes and Pizza will be given out to the fans that come support our teams on specific Fan Appreciation Dates. All our encouraged to come out and support your Bearcats!
Buddy Teams- Buddy teams were established to encourage interaction between athletes and help show support for your fellow Bearcats. A men's and women's team are paired up (Buddies) during the course of the year. During specified dates, the buddy teams are strongly encouraged to attend the game/match of their biddy team.
