Game Plan is excited to announce our newest partnership with Northwestern State Athletics! The Demons are a member of the Southland Conference and will be the 3rd conference member to join the Game Plan team! NSU athletics hosts 14 varsity sports and student-athlete development efforts are focused around the “Victorious for Life” initiative that includes academics, community service, career development, and personal development.

“The addition of Game Plan to the Athletic Department’s ‘Victorious for Life’ program repertoire further enhances an initiative that has made NSU a leader in community service and citizenship”, said Greg Burke, Athletic Director of Northwestern State University. “With this program, we look recruits and their parents in the eye and tell them that the time they spend at NSU will prepare them for the next phase of their life – and, in fact, for the rest of their life”.

Northwestern State athletics will use Game Plan’s innovative eLearning curriculum to enhance student-athlete development efforts in the areas of life skills, academic development, career development and more. NSU will also use Game Plan’s custom content feature to bring an electronic version of its student-athlete handbook to student-athletes while being able to check for retention and understanding of rules and guidelines in an efficient way. Furthermore, NSU athletics will use Game Plan’s Career Marketplace feature to bring local and national employment opportunities directly to their student-athletes.

“Northwestern State Athletics is committed to providing the best possible experience to their athletes and their athlete development programs play a huge part in that”, said Game Plan CEO Vin McCaffrey. “We are excited to partner with an Athletic Department that cares so deeply about its athletes and provide them with a comprehensive platform that allows their staff to improve and expand their already great student-athlete development programs.”

 

Welcome to the Game Plan team, Demons!
