Who Are We?

Dedication + Opportunity

We are a tax-exempt non-profit scholarship organization that provides financial assistance to young athletes from families with financial need so they can access competitive club sports programs and learn leadership and team-building skill that will benefit them on and off the athletic field.

 

Our name says what we all know to be true. If you give someone a chance, an opportunity, a level playing field, hope… you can change the world. Our mission started as all dreams do: with a need. As community leaders we’ve watched kids get excluded from the benefits of competitive sports based on a lack of disposable income.  And we knew that we had an opportunity to make a difference that could shape not only community courts, fields, diamonds, and tracks but neighborhoods, schools, communities, cities, and our state

We Believe In

Breaking Income Barriers

Income shouldn’t be the barrier that holds kids back from athletics.

Development

Through sports, kids learn valuable lessons that benefit them in all areas of life

Equality

Equal opportunity levels the playing field.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: To provide student-athletes with the financial support to access competitive club sports, and to learn leadership and teambuilding skills that will benefit them on and off the athletic field.

To understand our mission, you have to understand our philosophy.  Together, we’re bringing down the barrier of entry for families to give their children the opportunity to get to an elite level of athletics, and in return, the hope is that our investment will create dividends – a ripple effect – with these same young athletes becoming leaders that will grow and succeed and give back in the future.

We’re giving people a chance – a golden ticket – removing financial barriers to hard working, dedicated, and prepared young boys and girls, increasing the probability that they will win the game of sports (and life).

You ask, why me? We ask, why not you?

We know that life is full of challenges, and we believe that those challenges make us stronger if we know what to do with them. Our purpose is to give you a community to help you build on those challenges, become stronger and better because of them, and cheer you on every step of the way.

We know that just because we’re on different teams, doesn’t mean we can’t all work toward the same common goal and from the same set of ideals and beliefs to lift each other up.

Leveling the Playing Field

  1. The possibilities of elite athleticism extend far beyond the field. That’s why Chance Sports is breaking down barriers, working to create more opportunities and helping to level the playing field. Together.
  2. Beyond athletics, we are creating future role models, leaders, and champions of excellence and impact through action, to help student athletes reach their fullest potential through sport and education.
  3. We cultivate a culture of shared purpose to leave an enduring impact on our communities and our state, one athlete – and one life – at a time.

Want to get involved?

Together, we win. We not only believe that, but are committed to putting it into action, one student athlete at a time. We hope you’ll join us.
