As a Varsity Athlete here at Nipissing University, you are part of a community with a wealth of athletic, academic, and leadership opportunities both on Nipissing Campus and within the community that surrounds us. In order for the athletic department to best support all student athletes, you should have the opportunity to voice your opinions and provide insight on your experiences.
The Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is made up of members from each team as well as members of athletic department staff in order to work to best represent the people of athletics here at Nipissing University.
What does SAAC do?
SAAC members meet on a regular basis to discuss and make plans for events and initiatives that will enhance the student athlete experience, create a more engaging and inclusive athletics environment, create positive relationships between teams as well as with the community, and increase crowd engagement at our games and competitions.
