Sports Hero Day
*THIS PROGRAM IS NOT CURRENTLY RUNNING, BUT THERE WILL BE A SPORTS HERO DAY EVENT DURING FALL SEMESTER*
What is Sports Hero Day?
Sports Hero Day is an event that happens twice a year. During our event, we invite 1,000 6th-grade students to come and find their heroes through our BYU Student-Athletes. While the 6th graders are here on campus, they have the opportunity to meet the student-athletes, hear their stories, and practice their sports. We hope to motivate these kids to help them find values and set goals for their future through the example they learn from the BYU athletes. We invite you to come and help inspire these 6th-grade students during our Fall 2024 event on October 4th! the tentative time is 8:30 AM - 1:00 PM. More information will be posted here and on the Get Involved tab as the event approaches. Thank you for your interest in our program!

My most meaningful experience would have to be executing the fall Sports Hero Day. My team spent countless hours planning and prepping for this day. I loved seeing the happy spirits of those kids when they met their idols, and I am so thankful I get to be a part of creating an inspiring experience for youth
