What can we learn from this week's $10 million to the Michigan State University#Tennis program?
1) Embrace enthuasism- wherever the source, whatever the object
2) Feed it. Support it. Amplify it. Supplement it.
3) Think like your customer/donor, get out of your own head.
Look from the outside in, not the inside out. Love the Brand Love on your customer's terms, not yours.

Last term, we launched an exciting Kick Ups Football Competition across all alternative provisions, challenging students to show off their sporty skills for a chance to win a £50 JD voucher!
We're thrilled to announce that our winner from Sunrise Academy, Kyle, managed an incredible 225 kick-ups! 🌟 Such an outstanding achievement deserves a round of applause! Well done Kyle👏⚽
A huge well done and thank you to everyone who took part - keep your eyes peeled for our next competition announcement! #FootballChamp#KickUpsChallenge#SunriseAcademy#AmazingSkills#SENSchools
What are the Educational, Health, or Economic Benefits to these Players and their Families for that kids uncompensated participation in any additional “NON-SCHOLARSHIP” private third-party postseason football games that pay the Universities and the Conferences for the use of their free labor to put on these highly profitable Bowl events.
The answer is ZERO!
These additional 1-5 POSTSEASON games are also above the Players’ 12 game athletic scholarship agreement?
Our Proposal offers Major Benefits in all three Categories to the Players and their Families! Scholarship Football Players are owed Hundreds of Millions of dollars from this year’s Media contract that uses these Players’ Name, Image, and Likeness NIL without any equitable financial consideration to the Players or their Families!
This lost Money could have a major impact on these Players lives, the lives of their current and future family members for generations?
We do not support, or agree with the House vs NCAA Settlement or the current covert attempts to extend and expand this Antitrust exploitation of our young (mostly minority) FB & BB Players' labor that the US Supreme Court and Federal District Court have recently struck down as illegal and implausible.
