👍 Why Is National Student-Athlete Day Important

It’s difficult to be good at a sport, as our clumsy selves can attest. We’ve jumped over enough humps and hit enough foul balls to understand how talented student athletes are. However, for every ounce of potential that student athletes possess, they reinforce it via hours and hours of practice. Student athletes find time to work what amounts to a part-time job while also completing all of their assignments. That guy from High School Musical had enough trouble balancing two extracurriculars and a girl—we’re sure he wasn’t getting his work done on time. That is why your student athletes are so amazing—they can do it all! Make sure to tell them how much you appreciate them today.

Consider this: How many school-related holidays do you know about? It’s easy to dismiss school as a hassle and to label those who excel at it as “nerds.” It became fashionable to be uninterested in school at some point. But because student athletes are some of the coolest people we know, celebrating their academic success sends a powerful message: education can be enjoyable, and performing well is even better.

Student athletes have the same amount of time as you do in the day. And they manage to practice their skill for many hours a day, hang out with their friends, complete their schoolwork, and eat throughout that time. Consider their example the next time you claim you don’t have time to go to the gym or pursue a new interest. These athletes are genuine people who balance their passions and commitments, and there’s no reason you can’t do the same. Now go get that basketball in the back of your closet and start shooting! However, do not play with a student athlete. They will humiliate you with their beating.

🙂 How To Observe National Student-Athlete Day

⚡ Get the student-athlete in your life some new gear
No matter if your top student athlete is in high school or college, it is highly improbable for them to be able to afford the equipment they truly want. Show them your support and gratitude for their dedication by surprising them with new cleats or the lacrosse stick they’ve been longing for. This gesture will demonstrate that you acknowledge their efforts and are fully behind them.

⚡ Share a meme or three
We find ourselves drawn to student athlete memes, which showcase true creativity and humor. On National Student Athlete Day, let’s bring these memes to life by sharing them on social media and tagging our friends who are student athletes. While we may be poking fun, we’re certain they’ll take it in good spirits.

⚡ Go to a local game
We have lost count of the number of times we have passed by our local high school during a football game. However, we always convince ourselves that the next time we will actually stop and watch. (Unfortunately, that never happens.) This holiday is a perfect opportunity to show our support for the talented student athletes in our community. Take a look at your former school’s website calendar, as there will likely be a wide array of events you can attend.
