Stunt Team
To maintain our standing and reputation as a top stunt team in the country, we need to continue attending high-quality tournaments with other top-ranked teams. Two tournaments, one in Oklahoma and the other in Tennessee, will challenge our team to be competitive at the NCAA DII level.
Additionally, we would like to focus on supporting our student-athletes by providing them with tools and resources to address mental health. By addressing topics including mental toughness, confidence, and team building, we are not only improving our students for their performance as stunt athletes, but how they will impact their families and workplaces for the Kingdom of God.
Giving Day 2023 Update
Giving Day 2023 funds were used to support our team competing at Texas Women’s University in Denton, Texas. We also awarded our 3.5+ GPA student athletes with special gear celebrating their success in the classroom.Why should donors support?
Your support of the Vanguard stunt team during Giving Day is transformational. It provides opportunity, the opportunity to compete at a high level and the opportunity to grow as athletes. As a two-time national runner-up in a growing sport, our success continues to draw a large number of recruits, and we need to ensure that we provide top-notch experiences in every aspect of the college student-athlete experience.
Student Impact
"Giving Day is extremely helpful in allowing our team to travel and gain experience playing against wonderful teams all over the country. Traveling and playing with my team has been such a hallmark of my college experience and allowed me to create some wonderful memories that I can always cherish when I reflect on my time and Vanguard. It really allows our team to have a successful season!” Taumiana Owensby ‘27
How will funds be used?
Funds raised during Giving Day 2024 will ensure the stunt team can travel to two major tournaments (in Oklahoma and Tennessee) to compete against other top teams, preparing us for the fierce competition at the NCAA DII level, and give us the opportunity to update our game jerseys.
