Champions Adapt: A Seven Day Giving Challenge

THANK YOU! We had an amazing week during the Champions Adapt Challenge, and have you to thank for it. Although this challenge is finished, you can still support our program by making a donation at: https://give.ucdavis.edu/ICAI. Go Ags!

The fall in Davis is traditionally a time of incredible anticipation, renewed feelings of energy for the coming year, and sights and sounds of athletics activities all over our campus.  In 2020 it is no different.   I see it is a clear sign of the great feeling our athletes have for UC Davis that all of them plan to return and live in Davis this fall.   They plan to train with strong purpose, to maximize their talents in both the classroom and on the courts.   They want to make this year the best it possibly can be.

Like the generations of Aggies who have come before us, we are looking for opportunities in this challenge we currently face. We refuse to be still during this break, and we choose to live as champions…we will adapt.  The Champions Adapt Challenge (#ChampionsAdapt2020) is all about maximizing our potential and sprinting out of the gates when competition resumes. Like all champions, we know this will be a team effort, and you can be a big part of our team.

The week of October 12-18 was scheduled to be Homecoming week on campus, one that brings alumni back, old traditions out, and a full slate of home athletics events. With the loss of traditional revenue streams this year from associated events, we are forced to adapt to generate support for our program. Instead of pep rallies and tailgating, we will be on our phones, our email, and on social media spreading the word about the Champions Adapt Challenge.

Our program seeks your financial support now, and we have set a fundraising goal to achieve during this week-long effort. Please join us as we adapt to the opportunity presented, so we can position ourselves to be champions!   Your gift in support of Men’s Tennis during this campaign will make a world of difference in our current environment.  It will set us up for the inevitable return to the courts in the spring.  Every dollar contributed will go directly and exclusively towards UC Davis Men’s Tennis, continuing us on our quest to be both regionally and nationally competitive.

Our top priorities include:

  • Equipment to adapt to COVID -19 demands – things we wouldn’t have needed otherwise
  • South court resurfacing at the Marya Welch Tennis Center (meaning all courts new in last 16 months)
  • Supporting the Student Athletes– helping them to have an outstanding experience during challenging times
  • Providing a challenging, demanding experience for our athletes.  An experience that will help them grow to be great Aggies today – and Great Aggie Alums tomorrow!
